Trump reposts Kid Rock’s rant warning of religious civil war in the US
The Independent • • nation
Key Points:
- President Donald Trump reposted a rant from MAGA rapper Kid Rock expressing fear of a future "civil war over religious ideology" involving Michigan's Muslim population, targeting Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed.
- Kid Rock criticized El-Sayed as a "wolf in sheep’s clothing," linking the candidate to extremist religious ideology and opposing the imposition of Sharia law in the U.S. during a rally with Trump.
- Trump has repeatedly attacked El-Sayed on social media with Islamophobic and extremist labels, intensifying his intervention in the Michigan Senate race.
- El-Sayed has responded by calling out Trump for misusing his name and framing the attacks as broader assaults on the Muslim community and progressive voters.
- Kid Rock’s alliance with Trump has strengthened recently, though his MAGA support has not always translated into success, as evidenced by the cancellation of a Kentucky event due to poor ticket sales.
