Tommy Lee riles up 'Trumpsters' with political message about what will happen when liberals regain the White House
Tommy Lee has rankled conservatives by sharing a strong, anti-Trump political message on social media.
The Mötley Crüe drummer posted a long quote — traced back at least a year back and written by an unknown author — to his social media platforms on Wednesday. It started with, “You Trumpsters better pray that liberals never gain control of the [White House] again because we are going to pay you back so f***king hard for all this sh**.”
It went on to list all the changes liberals would potentially make: “Planned Parenthoods on every damn corner,” repaint Air Force One “p***y hat pink and fly it over your beloved Bible Belt 6 days a week, tossing birth control pills, condoms & atheist literature from the cockpit.”
The post went on to promise to “tax your mega churches so bad” that Joel Osteen will “need to get a job at Chick-fil-A to pay his light bill.”
As for Chick-fil-A, those will all be given to “any LGBTQ person your sick cult leaders tortured with conversion therapy. Have fun with the new menu you bigoted f**ks,” listing one item as the “McPence,” with a remark about being “in the closet.”
For guns, well, they’ll be gathered up, melted down and turned into “a gargantuan metal mountain emblazoned with the face of Hillary Clinton.”
All parks will be renamed after Rosa Parks and confederate statues will be Black Lives Matter leaders and Mexican immigrants. Every school will be renamed for a child “kidnapped by this regime.” And after “we fumigate the White House,” it will be repainted “rainbow.”
Oh, and Fox News? Gone. Turned into a “family refugee shelter.” Sean Hannity’s office will be “a giant unisex bathroom with changing tables & free tampons.”
And “Trumpsters” had best not complain about it. Every time they do, “we’re adding an openly gay character to a Disney movie.”
The post has been around for more than a year and was shared on Reddit and the Democratic Underground in July 2018. It could be older and it’s unclear who wrote it. But Lee had no problem sharing it, it was followed, on his Instagram Stories, by two videos in which he talks to his dog about the president. He asked, “Do you like Donald Trump? I don’t either. He’s a f**ing idiot. He also called him a “f**king moron.”
Needless to say, Trump supporters weren’t big fans and Lee was told to “stick to banging the drums” and to “leave” the U.S. if it isn’t to his liking, among other reactions:
Stick to banging the drums. No one should listen to celebs

Pretty simple @MrTommyLand if you don't like it here, leave. Come back when it's better for your liking.

You used to be my hero Tommy. Very ignorant

Some posted some even harsher comments, slamming the rock star’s character, which isn’t a real challenge. Some posts references to Lee’s fight with his son.

Oh, and as for any “stick to drumming” comments, he had a response to that days ago.
The next person who tells me to stick to drumming and stay out of politics, I’m gonna come to ur house and shove my drumsticks up ur ass until you sneeze 🖕🏼

A decade ago — ahead of the 2008 presidential election that put Barack Obama in the Oval Office — Lee told CNN he wasn’t a political junkie and rarely watched TV or listened to news reports. He said he had no opinion on Obama or John McCain’s policies, saying, “To tell you the truth, I only listen to music.”
But Trump — whom he called “scary delusional” on Twitter in July — brings out a different side of Lee. And after Trump recently cited video games as a reason for all the mass shootings in the U.S., Lee slammed him in another post, writing, “One minute you blame mental illness for the mass shootings then the next it's video games?! WTF is wrong with you!?! WAKE THE F**K UP!!!"
