Kid Rock will rally with U.S. Army combat veteran John James, a Republican candidate for U.S. Senate in Michigan, The Daily Caller News Foundation has learned.
The announcement comes after Rock, a Michigan native, contemplated a Senate bid for several months before announcing he would not run in October. Rock later signaled early support for James when he invited him to sit court-side at a Detroit Pistons game in January.
“Kid Rock’s appearance on stage with John James would be a game changer if he formally endorses,” Matt Frendewey, a former spokesperson for the Michigan Republican Party, told TheDCNF. “If James gets a formal endorsement, it would be a massive boost for him and a devastating blow for his opponent Sandy Pensler, who recently came under attack for disparaging comments about the president.” (RELATED: EXCLUSIVE: Republican Senate Candidate Questions Trump’s Wealth, Says He Speaks Like A Fourth Grader [VIDEO])
James’s “Rally to Take Back Michigan” will take place Tuesday in the Detroit suburb of Novi. As well as Rock, Rob O’Neill, the retired Navy SEAL who shot Osama Bin Laden, will also speak at the event. O’Neill endorsed James in late 2017.
The primary will take place on Aug. 7, 2018. The winner will take on Democratic Sen. Debbie Stabenow in the Nov. 6 primary.
Developing a John James ping list, let me know if you want off or on it.
On please.
Keep me on your ping list, please.
Yeah, badmouthing President Trump really helps your chances with GOP voters if you're a GOP candidate, Sandy. Run with that...
I'm fully on board for James but in all fairness to Pensler, it was a one sentence comment that was taken completely out of context that led to the attacks on him.............
Hardly the case...if you're going to attack someone, at least say something that is not patently ridiculous.
Anyway glad to hear you are on board for John James. We met him a few weeks ago in Gaylord and were most impressed.
Please add me to the John James ping list. Thanks!
Yea, they are. They're accusing him of financially contributing to some leftist Hispanic gal who supports sanctuary cities........
I don't know if that's accurate or not. But it doesn't matter to me.
I have a close friend in Boyne City that I stay in contact with and he tells me that that area is being taken over by liberals as evidenced by the democrat yard signs he has witnessed over the past two years...........
On, please. I’m a precinct delegate in Oakland County, I’ve met John James. Great guy. He’s the only chance we have against Stabenow.
The endorsement, of sorts, that mattered to me was seeing John James exchanging salutes with President Trump.
John James has my vote.
Would you like to be on the JJ ping list?
Please add me to your ping list, thank you!
Put me in please. Are you supporting him?
Sandy Pensler is a CREEP and a LIAR
John James is my guy.
He truly has a passion for serving his country. As a West Point graduate, and veteran of Operation Iraqi Freedom, he has shown his "true colors".
Additionally he is the only candidate endorsed by the national right to life.
Good. I have donated to his campaign. Hope to again before the election.
Here I go off on a tangent again.
I made the mistake of listening to Ravel's Bolero this weekend. That is a severe ear worm for me. I can't get rid of it. I should have known better.
Warning: It's 9 minutes and you'll need to keep adjusting the volume down as it goes on.
That is the VERY first record that I ever bought-—back in 1957-——I loved it.
