President Trump shared a video of rocker Kid Rock saying he’s “scared” there will be a religious “civil war” in his native Michigan — blasting Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed as being “a wolf in sheep’s clothing.”
Trump shared the clip late Sunday of the 55-year-old Christian singer warning Lara Trump on her Fox News show of his fears specifically for Dearborn, the Detroit suburb where he and multiple generations of his family were born and raised.
“I don’t know if people understand how it got to be one of the biggest Arab populations outside the Arab world,” he said of the only US city where the majority of residents are from the Middle East or North Africa.
Rock said that while he knows “there are extremists and there are milder versions of it … I don’t want my grandkids to one day have to fight some civil war over religious ideology.”
“This is scary,” he warned. “I think El-Sayed’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing,” he said of the Democratic candidate facing off against Republican Mike Rogers for a vacant seat.
Trump shared the clip without comment. But he days earlier referred to El-Sayed as a “Jihadist lunatic who hates our Country, the Black People of Detroit, and wants to see the U.S. fail.”
