Now That Trump's President, Conservative Celebs Are Lining Up for Major Political Run
Quote:Note: This article contains coarse language that may offend some readers.
Conservative rockers Kid Rock and Ted Nugent appear poised to enter the political arena, and it looks like their motivation lies with President Donald Trump.
Kid Rock's name was first tossed out as a possibility for a 2018 Senate run at a Michigan Republican Party convention last weekend. In 2013, Kid Rock told Rolling Stone about his political views, saying, “I'd probably be more Libertarian, but I'm a firm believer you have to pick a side. I can't be playing the middle.”
Kid Rock was one of few celebrities who were unafraid to publicly throw their support behind Trump during the election. He lauded Trump for his potential to shift the dynamic in Washington and try something new, because of a belief that the existing system was broken, saying:
I'm digging Trump. I feel like a lot of people, whether you're a Democrat or a Republican, feel like if you get Hillary or Bernie, or you get Rubio or Cruz or whoever, there's going to be the same sh*t."
As a non-traditional candidate with no previous legislative experience, Kid Rock would certainly bring that same change to the Senate.

Silly me...I though you said celebrities.
But as far as Bob Ritchie goes, one anonymous person merely mentioning his name at a state party convention is hardly akin to him lining up for a major political run.
Plus, I doubt he'd want to pass up the partying and his current pay.

Unlike those politicians and liberals, Kid Rock loves America.

Ted Nugent? Nobody denies that he's a patriot. Nobody denies that he's a nuttier than squirrel ****.

Daily reminder that Nancy Pelosi thinks that Bush is still President, Maxine Waters thinks Putin invaded Korea, Hank Johnson thinks Guam is going to tip over, Sheila Jackson Lee thinks the Constitution is 400 years old, and Elizabeth Warren thinks she's an Indian.
Your average celebrity can't be any worse.

Sonny Bono was elected to office. Heath Shuler was also elected as a Democrat Senate. He did not run again because both sides were posion up at the hill.
Jerry Springer was elected mayor.
Jesse The Body Ventura was elected governor.

Yeah, I know. I say the same thing about Oblunder who NEVER amounted to anything before he was elected.
