Why does everyone here dislike Toby Keith? Does he vote Dem?

If he does, then he’s like a lot of Dems. They complain about the riots and the destruction and the disrespect for the flag, etc., but they keep on voting the same way.

This is what I found: In 2008, Toby was interested in both Barack Obama and John McCain, but he eventually announced that he had left the Democratic Party and reregistered as an independent. "My party that I've been affiliated with all these years doesn't stand for anything that I stand for anymore," he said. "They've lost any sensibility that they had, and they've allowed all the kooks in. So I'm going independent."

Does Toby Keith support Donald Trump?


Although many artists have come out in opposition to Trump, Toby was one of the few musicians who was willing to perform at his inauguration in 2017. After he performed, Toby said he got a number of messages from fellow artists who were jealous that Toby had performed and they hadn't. “I’m not naming names, but there’s a bunch of people that . . . were committed, and they backed out due to pressure,” Toby said. Toby said that it had never occurred to him to consider canceling on Trump and pointed out that he had performed at events for both George Bush and Barack Obama. For Toby, the event was more about honoring America than any particular president. It was also a move that he believed would go over well with his fans.
