He'll always have Kid Rock, though.

Ya almost feel sorry for him. Almost.

It’s not just that he has terrible taste, though of course he does. It’s unclear how many people are splashing their own homes in hideous gold-painted appliqués to mimic his Russian-gangster-meets-Saddam-Hussein aesthetic, but there can’t be all that many. Trump’s musical tastes run from show tunes to perfectly adequate pop numbers to one particular ‘70s song about gay men cruising for sex — but the last thing you’d call him is cool.

"He’ll always have Kid Rock, though. That’s who will stay by his side: the third-rate, the washed-up, the one-hit-wonders and laughingstocks. And not even most of them." — @paulwaldman.bsky.social

Didn't they used to get Eric's wife to sing?

Is she not interested either or are they just not asking her? (I am being very sarcastic)

She could then put her album on the Orange Tyrants merch page and sell a few million albums. She could split the proceeds with trDUMP.
