The right-wing musician recently described Trump as one of his “besties” in a wild Rolling Stone interview published in May that explored his “extreme political turn” from party rocker to “fervent MAGA warrior.” He reportedly waved a gun around during the interview, adding to a list of controversial stunts and comments over the years.
One person was killed, and Trump and two others were wounded Saturday when a shooter fired on the former president’s campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
The gunman, whose motive is still being investigated by authorities, was fatally shot by Secret Service agents at the scene.
The incident triggered condemnation and calls from top elected officials, including President Joe Biden, to lower the temperature in American politics.

Trump, too, has called for unity in comments since the attack.
Other musicians who have commented on the shooting include 50 Cent, Soulja Boy, Scotty McCreery, John Rich and Dave Matthews.
“Ain’t no way they just shot at Trump,” Soulja Boy wrote.
“That’s no way to behave. My condolences to the family of the people who were hurt, but good grief man, that’s no way to run a democracy, that’s no way to be part of a democracy,” Matthews said on stage at a show in Virginia, according to a video posted on X.
Rich, the country singer and one half of the duo Big & Rich, leaned into conspiracy theories, writing: “They couldn’t beat him in a fair contest, so they tried to kill him. BUT THEY MISSED.”
Rapper Nicki Minaj also appeared to weigh in when she posted “Wtf” shortly after the shooting.
