Famous Rock Stars Reacts To Donald Trump’s Attempted Assassination

Rock stars have reacted to last night’s attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump with a mix of shock, sadness, and anger.

Trump was shot in the ear while delivering a speech at a campaign event in Butler, Pennsylvania. The alleged shooter, 20-year-old kitchen worker Thomas Matthew Crooks from Bethel Park, reportedly fired at the former President from a nearby rooftop. Crooks killed one person and injured two others before Secret Service agents returned fire and killed him.

Following the incident, Trump was quickly surrounded by Secret Service agents and escorted to safety. Shortly after the attack, the former President posted that he was safe and vowed to return to the campaign trail.

“The shooting of former President Trump is an awful example of the state of our country,” Kiss frontman Paul Stanley posted on X (formerly known as Twitter). “NOBODY has the right to use violence to further their beliefs. Democracy depends on elections to determine the will of the people. Wishing him a speedy recovery & a prayer for the lives lost.”

“Unacceptable on so many levels!,” added Twisted Sister star Dee Snider. “It is just effing awful what happened yesterday. Disagree with the other party as much as you want. NEVER raise a hand toward them. Respect their right to believe something different than you do!”

Longtime Trump supporter Ted Nugent declared that his “patriotic blood boils like never before in support of this great man to make America great again!” Kid Rock issued a blunt “You fuck with Trump, you fuck with me” video, then shared a link to a fundraising campaign for the other victims of the shooting.

The rock community’s reaction highlights the deep divisions in the country and the urgency to address political violence. As Trump continues his campaign, the focus on ensuring safety and promoting peaceful discourse remains paramount.
