Country star offers to perform at Tillis primary opponent’s rally

Posted on by

Country music performer John Rich has been a passionate, outspoken supporter of Donald Trump and the MAGA movement.  (Country fans may also remember him as the former co-lead singer of the band Lonestar and as one-half of the duo Big & Rich.)

It appears that Rich has seen all he needs to see of senator Thom Tillis, and has made an offer to folks here in North Carolina:

In September 2024, Rich played a concert in Chapel Hill to thank a UNC fraternity for protecting an on-campus American flag from filthy dirtbag pro-Hamas protesters.

You heard the man, folks.  That’s big-time entertainment for an event promoting a big-time primary challenger to Scraggly Thom. 

For what it’s worth, I’m hearing that Tillis is backing out of a 2026 run.  I hear he has someone waving big bucks at him, and all of this is just him flipping us all off on the way out the door.
