Twisted Sister frontman Dee Snider spoke in an interview with Loudwire and explains his recent thoughts about USA President Donald Trump. He said:
“I’m not a fan of Trump’s style. But again, this is the hand that we were dealt. And a large part of the election going the way it did is because a lot of young people became apathetic after their guy didn’t get the nomination. I remember being 21 and stupid too. And [I saw things as] black and white — if I can’t have my guy, [I’ll vote for] nobody. Or I’ll write something stupid in the margin of the ballot, or whatever.
So now you have to live with those decisions. But at the end of the day, this is how the game is played. So next time, don’t fuck up. Get out and vote. You can’t complain unless you voted.”
He continued:
“I think that Trump’s supporters’ extreme, aggressive support — seemingly blind support — is partially a reaction to the lashing out toward him… He’s not being given a chance.
There used to be this spoken rule that, okay, we had an election, my guy won, or this guy won, that guy lost, that’s our president — like it or not, for the next four years, this is the guy — and we need to stand behind him, or at least give him a chance.
And I’ve taken that approach: we need to give him a chance to do… It’s a different game, he’s a different guy, it’s a different world, all those things… And yes, I know the man. And by the way, I don’t have one friend I’d want to be president of the United States. And can you think of one of your friends — I’m asking everyone watching — that you would want to be president of the United States? None. Because we know our friends too well, and they know us too well…
So I think that we need to take a breath and say, ‘This is our guy. He was elected fairly. We’ve gotta give him a chance,” And I’ve noticed that just by saying those words, I’ve seen the ardent supporters go, ‘Thank you for that. That’s cool.’ And just sort of relax a little bit. I think that’s part of the problem.”
