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 individuals gathering in cities everywhere in the nation — had been scheduled on the controversial President’s 79th birthday. That’s possible 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 Crew 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 every one fought in wars from the revolutionary conflict (really) through to WWII / Korea. All politics & events and righteous indignation apart it’s an excellent bummer that as an alternative 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 evokes this type 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 irritated anybody is protesting as an alternative of simply telling service women and men thanks. He continued:
“I haven’t been a card carrying political member of both aspect for over 20 years & assume at this level every thing is absurd 99% of the time… However I’d prefer to say THANKYOU to all the Military service members lively and retired and people who have given their lives to guard our freedom… to protest.”
Yeesh. It appears like what persons are protesting isn’t a priority to Ryan in any respect… Bizarre, you’d assume with so many relations who fought in wars, you’d admire utilizing the rights they fought for — and never giving into somebody who desires to take them away. Huh.
