Red Jumpsuit Apparatus Singer Says: 'If You Voted for Trump, Do Not Come to My Shows... You Will Hear the Actual Words of

Source: Variety

The singer for the alternative rock band Red Jumpsuit Apparatus is looking to make the audiences at their shows great again by making their crowds free of outright MAGA supporters again. In a video posted on Instagram, frontman Ronnie Winter says supporters of Donald J. Trump should refrain from coming to their concerts, because, in his view, they won’t like the “acceptance” and “actual words of Jesus” that he believes they will encounter at the show.

“If you voted for Donald Trump, do not come to my shows — forever, not just like these four years,” Winter says at the conclusion of the video post. “Don’t come to my shows because you’re going to hear a lot of woke propaganda, and you’re going to hear the actual words of Jesus, and you’re going to see a lot of acceptance from all areas of life and races, and you’re just going to see a lot of harmony. OK? That’s not what you’re about, OK? Don’t come. Refunds are available. Forever, don’t come. Goodbye.”

In the video, the singer appears to have had enough of seeing ongoing flack from some quarters for his comments he made supporting progressive ideals in 2020, saying that any backlash from more conservative fans is not causing him to back down on what he believes in.

He continues, “So, here it is again, in case somehow you missed it: Hi, I’m Ronnie Winter. I sing for the Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, and I actually follow what Jesus says. If you’re a Christian and you’re watching this and you voted for Donald Trump, shame on you. You are not allowed to come to my shows. I don’t want you there. Don’t come to my shows. It’s awesome that you love ‘Face Down’; it’s not for you. It’s not your song, OK? It is not your song.”
