Roger Daltrey Says Democrats Threw The Election

Four months after the election and two months after Donald Trump took office, a number of classic rockers are suddenly offering up new opinions on the state of American politics.

Earlier this week, John Lydon of the Sex Pistols and PiL came out cautiously in favor of President Trump saying “What I dislike is the left-wing media in America are trying to smear the bloke as a racist, and that’s completely not true. There’s many, many problems with him as a human being, but he’s not that, and there just might be a chance that something good will come out of that situation, because he terrifies politicians and this is joy to behold to me.”

The latest to chime in is Who frontman Roger Daltrey who may not be a Trump fan, but he thinks there’s a bigger reason why he is president. Daltrey told Britain’s NME his biggest concern was “His fucking haircut! He needs it cut and as my mother would say, ‘wash your fucking mouth out’.”

Daltrey went on to say that Trump didn’t win the election so much as the Democrats lost it. “On other pieces of politics, let’s put it this way: when you say that middle America and the Democrats lost it, but Trump didn’t really win it – because Democrats threw it away by putting [Hilary Clinton] up. A dead dog would have won it against [her], look at that.”

Daltrey also reiterated his support of the British exit from the European Union.
