Specifically, he said in an interview with “The Times Magazin”: “It was so ‘Woke’ with the bidders, even they themselves found it crazy at some point.” The rock veteran continued to report in detail about his assessment of the current political situation in America and explained why political correctness could be exaggerated for many people.
The American said: “When a man says to a colleague: ‘Nice dress’, he is fired? This is amazing.” Alice Cooper believes that political correctness has been so exaggerated in recent years that the population has lost confidence in the democrat: inside. “It was so exaggerated that everyone who would have competed against the Democrats would have won. America had had enough of the nonsense,” said the 76-year-old. And further: “In a real war you don’t want a poodle, but a pit bull.”
Golfanecdote with Trump
The rock star, who has been satirical in every US election since the 1970s, at that time as a PR GAG for his single “Elected”, also alluded to a golf game with Trump in the interview with “The Times Magazin”. “When a president says he is not cheating on the Golf, he doesn’t choose him,” joked Cooper. “Everyone cheats on the golf with friends. But Trump was good. He can play.” When asked whether the two were friends, Cooper said: “We got along quite well.”
