Trump Supporters banned from Red Jumpsuit Apparatus shows by frontman
Red Jumpsuit Apparatus’ frontman, Ronnie Winter, took to social media this past weekend, posting a video shaming fellow Christians and their support of Donald Trump, as well as telling all Trump supporters they were not welcome at the band’s shows and he did not want them there. The following is a transcription of the video:
“What’s up? Ronnie from Red Jumpsuit here. Just doing a quick little PSA. I thought I was pretty clear about all this stuff in 2020. As you notice on my Instagram, I did not remove any of that stuff from the Stay Woke campaign. I guess you guys are calling it from 2020.
Look, man, the thing about being woke is you’re awake. And once you’re awake, you can never go to sleep. And not only has nothing changed, but everything they said was going to happen, the woke people has happened. You have done nothing but prove them right.
So here it is again, in case somehow you missed it. Hi, I’m Ronnie Winter. I sing for the Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, and I actually follow what Jesus says. If you’re a Christian and you’re watching this and you voted for Donald Trump, shame on you.
You are not allowed to come to my shows. I don’t want you there. Don’t come to my shows. It’s awesome that you love ‘Face Down.’ It’s not for you. It’s not your song. It is not your song.
If you voted for Donald Trump, do not come to my shows or ever, not just these four years. Don’t come to my shows because you’re going to hear a lot of woke propaganda, and you’re going to hear the actual words of Jesus. You’re going to see a lot of acceptance from all areas of life and races, and you’re just going to see a lot of harmony. That’s not what you’re about. Don’t come. Refunds are available. Forever, don’t come. Goodbye.”
