Butcher Babies have stuck their claws into US Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump and ripped him limb from limb.
Don’t get too excited, we don’t mean literally (although that would make for one metal AF music video), but they have mercilessly trashed The Donald in a new video interview with DGM TV.
Tag-teaming a question about their views on the controversial Republican frontrunner/combover king, the Soundwave 2015 act’s frontbabes Heidi Shepherd and Carla Harvey responded by slamming his campaign as “disgusting” and “completely bizarre”, while reserving a few choice words about the man himself and the party that backs him.
“I think it’s very irresponsible of him to even be running for president, to even be taking a vote away from someone who is a good candidate,” Carla said (transcribed via Blabbermouth).
“It’s a completely bizarre thing that people even look at him as if he would be a good candidate. He’s horrible to women, he says horrible things about everyone, he says horrible things about handicapped people, people of color…”
While Heidi added: “I can’t even believe it’s gotten this far. It’s honestly disgusting. I remember when he first announced he was gonna run for president, I was, like, ‘Oh, that won’t even make it past the first anything.’ And it’s gotten this far, and it’s a terrifying thing.
“All Americans that are against him are, like, ‘All right. We’re going to Canada. We’re outta here’,” she continued. “But I see a lot of really, really bad things happening in this world if that happens.
“To us, we take these things very seriously. I grew up in politics — my mom’s a politician — so, for me, kind of seeing it… I look at [the Republican] party as they would be nominated for an Oscar for ‘Best Comedy’ or something like that. To me, it’s the biggest joke, and I’m not impressed. And I don’t think that most people are.”
And their anti-Trump tirade didn’t stop there…
Carla: “It bothers me too that you see… He really just kind of perpetuates all this hate in people, and to hear some of the things that people say in support of him, you see how much hate there still is in the world and in the States. And it really bothers me, because I like to think of the States as a place that has so much compassion. I mean, we’re a new country. People from all over the world came there for a better life, and all kinds of immigrants came there and built up our country to be what it is today. And this person is just… He’s a hatemonger and he is really fueling the racism. And, like I said, the things that he says about women are just ridiculous.”
Heidi: “If he is nominated, I don’t see his life lasting very long.”
Carla: “He might be, like, a plant of some kind to distract from some…”
Heidi: “There’s a lot of conspiracy theories. Who knows? I’m just hoping and keeping my fingers crossed that he drops out [of the race].”
