Spoiled rich kid, right-wing grifter, and terrible shot Kid Rock will be part of tonight’s festivities in Milwaukee for the Republican National Convention. That sentence shouldn’t shock anyone, as the dude’s been hard in the paint for pretty much every bit of Republican outrage that’s reared its ugly head over the last few years just to stay in the spotlight.
Earlier today, Kid Rock (née Bob Ritchie) posted on his social media accounts that he’d arrived in Milwaukee to support former President Donald Trump, who he called the “tried and true, red, white, and blue, 100 percent American badass president.”
Ever one to cozy up with anyone in power that will give him attention, the dude’s scheduled to perform “American Bad Ass” off his 2000 album The History of Rock. For those that don’t remember — or are actively blocking it from their mind — it’s the song where they sample Metallica’s “Sad But True” for Kid Rock to rap annoyingly over.
In a clip of Kid Rock’s soundcheck shared by mainstream media stooge and CNN host Jake Tapper, it also sounds like he’s changing some of the lyrics to reference former President Donald Trump’s call to “fight” after the attempt on his life last weekend. As you can see in the clip below, he changes the “hey hey” parts to “fight fight,” which I’m sure will illicit a lot of crusty old white folks in the crowd to pump their fists and chant along like a buncha fashy parrots.
Remember, this was the guy that during the Bud Light boycott he made that hilariously bad public show of support by shooting at (and mostly missing) cases of the beer even though he personally continued to enjoy it.
But what else do you expect from the guy? He’s perfect for an RNC that will also feature shit stain, racist, and WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan, who’s scheduled to speak before Trump officially accepts his nomination as the Republican party’s candidate for the presidency. Because nothing says “we’re not living in the movie Idiocracy like having a sentient sundried banana peel like Hulk Hogan involved in a major party’s process.
