A picture showing John Lydon, aka Johnny Rotten smoking a cigarette with a MAGA (Make America Great Again, Trump's slogan for the 2016 elections) t-shirt before a concert in New Orleans in 2018 came out again.

The former frontman of the Sex Pistols, who has lived in Los Angeles since the early 80's, made several statements in favor of Trump: "What I dislike is the left-wing media in America are trying to smear the bloke as a racist and that’s completely not true." or "Watching him act fills me with happiness". Another sentence for Trump is regularly quoted, but it could be a support for Nigel Farage (extreme right in England) and the Brexit: "".The working class has spoken, and I am one of them, and I stand with them. So this is the result

About his supposed leaning towards anarchism, said :
"I have always thought that anarchy is mind games for the middle class. It’s a luxury. It can only be afforded in a democratic society, therefore kind of slightly fucking redundant. It also offers no answers", "Somebody's got to build roads and it certainly won't be the anarchists."

Unsurprising, coming from a butter salesman.

That damn scum was never a punk and today only shows more clearly his stupidity and lack of brains.

Johnny Rotten is one of those individuals that just spouts off to purposely piss people off. I wouldn't put much stock in whatever he says.
