DOKKEN guitar legend George Lynch has slammed President Donald Trump, calling the billionaire real estate mogul an "idiotic monster" and an "egotistical, self-aggrandizing, complete piece of shit" who "doesn't know anything."
The iconic musician, who has previously called himself a "very progressive person" and "liberal in [his] politics," made his latest comments during an interview with Australia's "Scars And Guitars" podcast.
Speaking about the state of American politics, Lynch said (hear audio below): "I'm honestly just so fatigued, and most of the people that I surround myself with that are political animals are equally fatigued. We're living through the American nightmare, and I hope it doesn't become a fascist nightmare. But for the moment, hopefully we can undo the damage at some point.

I took a big, stinking George Lynch this morning, and I’m lucky it didn’t clog the toilet.
He was good enough to be considered a replacement when Randy Rhodes was killed. The can play. Anyone who says otherwise is being disingenuous.
Never heard of the guy.
Next!
It's posted in Chat where it belongs. If you don't like it, don't participate in the thread. This isn't rocket science.
How many high-rise, glittering-gold buildings with his name on them does this guy own? How many country clubs and golf courses?
P.S. — Never heard of the guy.
And yet he still beat Hillary!
Never heard of the so called important person
Well, bear in mind that he hates Don Dokken’s guts. I mean, you may not want to give George any money, but don’t blame Don.
Most people are on George’s side in that fight, but I always thought it was pretty bad form how he loves to strongly denounce the music they made together. Hey, a**hole, you’re also denigrating the people who bought it. You know, the people who made you rich?
Agreed. Never was a fan — only saw them once, opening for Priest I think — but, man, Lynch could play.
That said, it’s coming up on October and they gots tour dates that needs butts in the seats. Can’t think of a single headbanger that really cares one way or the other, tho; they’re firmly in “shut up and play” mode.
Nickelback laughs at this clown. NOBODY cares what this thoroughly forgettable band.
You've summed up my feelings exactly.
And THAT is why "crap like this" gets posted.
Btw, I like 2ndDivisionVet's comment.
Thanks for the knowledge. I wasn’t aware. Without Don, George would be SOL. However, given how George doesn’t seem to mind offending most of his audience, I can’t say I am surprised that he badmouths Dokken.
I have never heard of this ignoramus.
But it just gets funnier. I Googled him and found this, "he is ranked #68 on "100 Greatest Guitarists Of All Time" by Guitar World magazine"
Not 12th or even 23rd, but 68th. I don't think the word legend applies. Household names, Les Paul, Leo Fender, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Lester Flatt, BB King, Brian May, Carlos Santana, Van Halen, Chuck Berry, Dave Gilmour, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Chet Atkins, Bo Diddley, and Roy Clark are a few guitar legends, but certainly not this twerp.
Well FU, and those people, too.
Don't like it?
ESAD!
Ok, that is the post of the day.
Thank you for reading the article...it is full of lots of “Are you kidding me?” moments. I mean, the Obama era was a political disaster, but I didn’t walk around in a haze or perpetual frenzy. These folks really have no idea what fatigue is.
This sh*t-for-brains sucked as a musician when I was a teenager and sucks as a human being today. Little changes in small minds.
Another reprobate for the count.
