Dave Grohl admitted in a new interview that he is “ashamed” of Donald Trump when the Foo Fighters travels overseas.
“Today, the American Dream is broken. I’ve probably travelled internationally more than our current president and the one thing I understand that he doesn’t is that the world isn’t as big as you think it is,” the Foo Fighters’ frontman told British GQ.
“It is all in your neighbourhood. India, Asia, Iceland aren’t other solar systems. I am ashamed of our president,” Grohl continued. “I feel apologetic for it when I travel.”
The 49-year-old rocker said the country is facing the biggest problem due to the man sitting in the oval office, bigger than any one policy issue. “Listen, who cares what I think about guns or religion, but the thing about Trump that stings the most is this: he just seems like a massive jerk. Right?” explained Grohl.
This is not the first time that Grohl has discussed his feelings about Trump. Previously explaining the meaning behind the lyrics on the Foo’s latest album, ‘Concrete and Gold,’ Grohl revealed that opening track ‘T-Shirt’ was inspired by an incident after the US President’s inauguration, when a press conference ended up in a ‘screaming match.’
