Body Count’s Ice-T Hates Both Political Parties But Thinks Trump “Is An Absolute Piece of Sh*t”
While the endorsements stack up for both major party candidates for President, Body Count frontman Ice-T doesn’t seem to particularly like anyone who’s running, joking in an interview with Classic Rock:
“I believe that had God wanted us to vote, he would have given us candidates.”
Still, it does seem like, of the two candidates, he does hate one more than the other. In the same interview with Classic Rock, Ice-T had some very choice words to say about the former and (god forbid) possibly future President:
“You know, I despise Trump. I think Trump is an absolute piece of shit. I think people vote with their wallets, so they believe that he’s gonna potentially put money in their pockets and some shit. But it didn’t happen last time.
“I think the good thing about Trump is that he let the world see how fucked up the United States is. He let the world see how racist and how scandalous a great portion of our country is. Nobody can just look at dude and say he’s a solid motherfucker. He’s got more fucking felonies than all my criminal friends put together and doesn’t even have an ankle bracelet on. It’s just showing us how this country is operated and run, so it’s crazy.”
Ice-T also had some negative things to say about Harris and was really skeptical of both major political parties, which is fair given the current state of things. Referencing one of his songs where he compares Democrats and Republicans to Crips and Bloods, Ice-T said:
“It’s just ironic that [the parties] wear red and blue. The gang thing is that once you say you’re Republican, you have to roll with everything they say, and once you say you’re a Democrat, you have to agree with everything they say. That’s a gang, yeah. That’s a gang mentality. You gotta to stay down. And if you’re the gang leader, you’re like, ‘Look, if you’re in my gang you agree with every fucking thing I say,’ and I don’t think anybody truly does.”
Overall, he has a lot of good points. We’re kind of fucked because the two parties are both pretty terrible and either candidate is likely to keep supporting a genocide in Gaza. Can we just restart this country from scratch?
