It seems OneRepublic frontman Ryan Tedder isn’t all that into defending our precise republic.
The Counting Stars singer took to Instagram this week to share his ideas on the No Kings protests — the anti-Donald Trump protests that erupted throughout the nation on Saturday. The protests — which reportedly noticed over 5 MILLION folks gathering in cities everywhere in the nation — had been scheduled on the controversial President’s 79th birthday. That’s doubtless no accident contemplating Trump was utilizing the 250th anniversary of the US Military to justify throwing himself a navy parade just like the authoritarian strongman leaders he admires.
Ryan didn’t come out and say he was Workforce Trump right here — however he made very clear he was AGAINST the No Kings protests! He disapprovingly wrote on his Story on Monday:
“I’ve round 20 relations & grandparents that each one fought in wars from the revolutionary warfare (really) through to WWII / Korea. All politics & events and righteous indignation apart it’s a brilliant bummer that as a substitute of celebrating the 250th anniversary of the US ARMY and all those that have fought and died on our behalf… We’re protesting.”
Sure. It’s a bummer there’s a president in workplace that conjures up this sort of protest. It’s an enormous bummer there’s a US president who has confirmed to be so corrupt and self-serving that he can’t be trusted with a military.

However clearly that wasn’t what Tedder meant. He’s aggravated anybody is protesting as a substitute of simply telling service women and men thanks. He continued:
“I haven’t been a card carrying political member of both facet for over 20 years & suppose at this level every thing is absurd 99% of the time… However I’d prefer to say THANKYOU to the entire Military service members energetic and retired and people who have given their lives to guard our freedom… to protest.”
Yeesh. It seems like what persons are protesting isn’t a priority to Ryan in any respect… Bizarre, you’d suppose with so many relations who fought in wars, you’d recognize utilizing the rights they fought for — and never giving into somebody who desires to take them away. Huh.
