I was there with [Trump] one day when he ended the caliphate, Kid Rock, 51 and born Robert Ritchie, told Carlson in reference to US efforts against the Islamic State.
He wanted to put out a tweet I dont like to speak out of school. I hope Im not. But the tweet was, and Im paraphrasing, but its like, you know, If you ever joined the caliphate, you know, trying to do this, youre going to be dead.
He goes, What do you think? [I said] Awesome. I cant add any better. But then it comes out and its reworded and more political, to look politically correct. And just, be afraid.
He also said he and Trump were once looking at maps. Im like, you know, like, Am I supposed to be in on this shit? Like I make dirty records sometimes. I do.
What do you think we should do about North Korea? Im like, What? I dont think Im qualified to answer this.

OP
Needy Amin wouldn't believe his own intelligence agencies, but he'll ask Kid Rock for advice.

I wouldn't worry about it. They were probably looking at a map of Middle Earth.

to make the only celebrity in his "entourage" feel welcome and meaningful. When all you have is Bob Ritchie, Steven Seagal, and Ted Nugent in your "celebrity" bank you have to guard them like the Crown Jewels.
Oh, I forgot Kanye, or "Ye", or whatever he's calling himself this week.
What a stable of stars Drumpf has in his corner, huh?
