Senator Kid Rock? Singer drops new hint as he tweets about a coming 2018 'political revolution'
The London Daily Mail ^ | September 1, 2017 | David Martosko, US Political Editor

Kid Rock teased a potential U.S. Senate run on Thursday, tweeting that '[t]he 2018 Political Revolution is nearing.'

The musician, who was born Robert Ritchie and lives in suburban Detroit, has already said on social media that a website touting his Senate candidacy against Democrat Debbie Stabenow is real.

He said in July that he would make a 'major announcement in the near future.'

Ritchie wrote on a Kid Rock for US Senate website that '[t]he democrats are "shattin’ in their pantaloons" right now…and rightfully so!'

'We will be scheduling a press conference in the next 6 weeks or so to address this issue amongst others, and if I decide to throw my hat in the ring for US Senate, believe me…

Robert Ritchie ought to run for the Senate if he thinks he can be a better Senator than Sen. Stabmenow.

Anyone could be a better Senator than Sen. Stabmenow.

Do it and don’t screw up. You will be rewarded. Just show the temperment.

I’m pretty sure he’s talking about KR, but just to be safe, don’t screw up either.

“Can’t vote for the guy “

Why not? Voter fraud isn’t a crime. Millions of illegal aliens and American alike do it without consequences. Heck, I’ll vote for him, twice!

The top-tier candidate should be identified and should run. Since the 16th or 17th amendment was passed we end up with a lot of cowards that don’t want to work without victory insured. We end up with a celebrity with no experience(if we’re lucky). It’s worked at times.

I got a heads up from his team that on 9/12 in his concert he will give a statement on his political positions.

He needs to run as Robert Ritchie.
He can’t be Senator Kid Rock.

That’s what we are supposed to have. Citizens who give up a few years of their lives and then go home. We were never supposed to have a professional ruling class.

Anybody is better than Stabenow. At least Kid Rock is not owned by lobbyists.

I can’t vote for him either, I don’t live in Michigan. Or is there another reason you can’t vote for him?

Uh, No thanks.

In February 2005, Rock was charged with assault on DJ Jay Campos in 'Christies Cabaret' strip club. He pleaded no contest and was sued for $575,000 by Campos.[41] Rock was charged with assault on Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee at MTV's 2007 Video Music Awards, he pleaded guilty.[42] In October 2007, Rock was involved in a brawl at a Waffle House in Atlanta, Georgia, and charged with simple battery.[43][44] He pleaded nolo contendere ("no contest") to one count, was fined $1,000, required to perform 80 hours of community service and complete a six-hour course on anger management.[45]

All jokes aside, isn’t this guy Kid Rock (whose songs I have never heard and don’t intend to) a criminal? Why should we support a law breaker?
