Frank Sinatra
Frank Sinatra was best known as the leader of “The Rat Pack” was a liberal turned conservative. He was raised by a mother that was radically liberal and a big supporter of the Democratic party. In his younger years he wanted to fight for a more racially tolerant America, so he voted for both Harry S. Truman and John F. Kennedy. But, by the 1970s Sinatra was ready to switch teams and decided to publicly support Ronald Reagan in his run for governor of California and Richard Nixon’s run for President. He was registered Republican for the rest of his life stating, “the older you get, the more conservative you get.”
Don King
Don King the legendary boxing promoter was a supporter of Donald Trump during the 2106 election. While campaigning for the now US President King had this to say to the white women of America, “You’ve got to understand what I’m trying to say to you is that the white woman — and I put it in this kind of [words] so you understand what I’m saying — the white woman and the slave, the people of color.” “When the system was created, they did not get heard. The first will be last, and the last will be first. “The white woman did not have the rights, and she still don’t have the rights,” Mr. King said. “And people of color don’t have their rights — those are the ‘left-outs.’ “Donald Trump says no — we [are] going back to inclusiveness,” he said. “Everybody counts.” “So that’s why when I see them try to ridiculize him or to try to ostracize … I want you to understand — every white woman should cast their vote for Donald Trump,” he said. “Not for Donald Trump the man, but to knock out the system … to get their rights.
“And I’m appealing to all the blacks because [their] vote is given away cavalierly, lackadaisically, with no redeeming [factor], and they’re playing the vote by party that you’ve got to vote this way,” he said.
Trace Adkins
The country music star wrote the song “Tough People Do” that many considered the GOP anthem after he sang it at the Republican National Convention back in 2008. Adkins has been registered as a Republican since 1980 and has no plans to change his affiliation. As a proud supporter of the NRA, he says that he feels Republicans better represent his ideology. And, he doesn’t appreciate liberal pop stars that use the stage as a platform. “I just want to hear your tunes. I don’t want to hear you puke up your liberal stuff at me,” he told Bill O’Reilly during his interview on “The O’Reilly Factor” who jokingly observed, “that sounds like a song.”
