Jonathan Cain recently talked to Metro UK about Donald Trump’s run for the presidency following his conviction for various crimes. The keyboardist shared his support for the business man by saying:
“Put it this way, there might have been some misdemeanors. Crimes, as they’re calling it. But yes, I do [believe he’s innocent].”
He added:
“I think it was unfair what happened. It was a sad day for the United States but I think he’s a fighter. He has a chance. They can’t stop him legally. He can run for president from jail. It will make him a legend.”
Trump Has Famous Supporters
The court in May found Donald Trump guilty of all 34 counts of falsifying business records related to a $130,000 payment made to porn star Stormy Daniels. Although convicted, Trump is allowed to run for office in the 2024 elections and has the support of names like Cain and Ted Nugent.
Nugent said in a March episode of ‘The Spirit Campfire With Ted Nugent’:
“In the name of your son Jesus Christ, we beg for your strength and your power to rise up from this apathetic embarrassment and elect Donald Trump to make America safe, secure, prosperous, great and healthy and moral again.”
Some Names Are On The Opposing Side
On the other side, The Rolling Stones members are standing against Trump’s re-election as the US president. Mick Jagger criticized him and his ongoing legal case on the MetLife Stadium stage in East Rutherford, New Jersey, last month:
“I was a bit worried about the weather—I thought we were going to get a bit of a Stormy Daniels.”
Many experts believe it’s unlikely that Donald Trump will be behind the bars during the 2024 election, according to ABC News. But the official decision is yet to be made.
