Lydon’s a default anarchist. Hard to square with populism, but maybe he appreciates Trump’s vigor and has the sense to realize they have some common names on their “to-do” lists.
Then again, maybe he’s full of it. Plenty of celebs in that category.
I always loved the Pistols... John wrote a book a few years ago that was quite good... I didn’t know that he had spinal meningitis as a child and completely lost his memory before age 12... so growing up in an industrial area of a dying country with the world being “brand new” to you at 13 probably lead to his strangely open expressions about the world around him. He’s one of the good guys in my book.
