Eric Trump Walked into a Rod Stewart Concert During "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy"

Picture it: it’s a Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden, and Rod Stewart has just started crooning “Do Ya Think I’m Sexy.” Suddenly, a Secret Service team appears with none other than Eric Trump.

That was the scene earlier this week when Trump and his wife Lara went to see Stewart perform. According to Page Six, Today anchors Hoda Kotb and Savannah Guthrie were also in the crowd.

Stewart has been a friend of Donald Trump’s for decades, but voiced concern over the real-estate mogul’s foray into politics.


Although he’s sort of a friend of mine, I don’t think he’s presidential,” he told press at Buckingham Palace in 2016. “I don’t think he’s made to be a president.

Rod Stewart is Scottish. The Scots narrowly voted to remain in the UK, and Britain rewarded that by promptly voting to exit the EU, which is one of the main advantages Scotland gains from being part of the UK. What a slap in the face, and I'm sure Rod Stewart is well aware of it. And his "sorta" friend supports Brexit.

Even in the US like the Johnny Ramone ( not joey)
Wiki....
Johnny was known within the punk rock community as one of its few conservatives, and was a staunch supporter of the Republican Party. He made his political affiliation known to the world in 2002 when the Ramones were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. After thanking all who made the honor possible—clad in his trademark T-shirt, ripped blue jeans and leather jacket—he said "God bless President Bush, and God bless America".[30] He said in an interview, when questioned on his conservatism, "I think Ronald Reagan was the best President of my lifetime."
Johnny is quoted by The Observer as saying: "People drift towards liberalism at a young age, and I always hope they change when they see how the world really is."[32]

And it not just old rockers
Think of Kanye !
