Staunch Trump Supporter Kid Rock Stuns Fans With Surprise Post-Election Hot Take
HuffPost
The firebrand musician urged MAGA not to gloat in an unexpected "olive branch" message.
Singer Kid Rock, a conservative firebrand and staunch supporter of President-elect Donald Trump, released a new video with an unexpectedly subdued reaction to last week’s election results.
The video begins with slate calling it a “Kid Rock vs. Bob Ritchie” reaction, referring to his stage name followed by his real name.
Kid Rock’s reaction is about what fans might expect: He steps out in a bright red tracksuit, dons his own version of a MAGA hat, puffs on a cigar, drops the mic, grabs his crotch and gives the finger to the camera, all without saying a word.
But Bob Ritchie, clad in shorts and a plain T-shirt, is much more diplomatic as he urges his fans not to gloat.
“We must remember that most of our left-leaning friends are good people who want the same things in life as we do but simply think differently on how to get there,” he said. “It is now time to be the bigger man, to extend an olive branch, and unite all reasonable people of this great nation.”
