Musicians Supporting Donald Trump in the 2024 Presidential Election
Eight years after he first became president of the United States, Donald Trump is once again running for re-election in 2024.
His latest campaign follows one term in the White House that began in 2016 after he defeated Hillary Clinton, plus another four years out of the job thanks to Joe Biden winning the race in 2020. This time around, the 78-year-old businessman-turned-politician faces a new opponent: Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic party’s presumptive nominee.
And while an outpouring of musicians have voiced their support for Harris, so, too, have a number of famous faces endorsed Trump ahead of the big vote in November. With Ohio senator JD Vance by his side as running mate, the twice-impeached ex-POTUS has received backing from artists of all backgrounds, from country stars such as Jason Aldean and Kid Rock to hip-hop hell-raisers like Kanye West and Sexyy Red.
His campaign has only grown more polarizing in light of his felony convictions in May, with a Manhattan jury finding him guilty of 34 charges of falsifying business records to cover up a $130,000 payment he made to adult film star Stormy Daniels. The same cannot be said about the apparent assassination attempt against him at his rally in Pennsylvania, an act of violence that was subsequently condemned by politicians on both sides of the aisle.
As more artists speak out, Billboard will continue to update this list to reflect all of the big names who are riding for Trump in 2024. For now, keep reading to see who in the music world has expressed support for the New York native’s third White House bid — so far, at least — below.
