Lady Gaga’s Father Goes On Fox News To Endorse ‘Pure’ Donald Trump: ‘A Patriot’
Lady Gaga’s father appeared on Fox News on Thursday to publicly endorse former President Donald Trump, calling him “pure” and a “patriot.”
Joe Germanotta, a restaurateur in New York, went on Fox & Friends and said he’s backing Trump mainly over his economic policies. He also referred to an “invasion” in New York City thanks to a not secure southern border and accused Vice President Kamala Harris of saying “whatever she needs to say” to get elected.
“They’re two vastly different people. One of them is pure and he’s a patriot, right? The other is just going to say whatever she needs to say to get elected, alright? That’s basically what I hear. I’m tired of hearing about her neighbor’s lawn,” Germanotta said.
In an interview with an ABC affiliate, Harris talked up her “middle class” upbringing where people “were very proud of their lawn.”
Germanotta acknowledged that Trump is “abrasive,” but said he’s not voting for personality.
“Six years ago, I was going to have the best year I ever had, at [Joanne Trattoria], until Covid. And when I say best year, it was 25% more than any other year. But the real foundation — I’m not voting for people. I mean, look, Donald Trump, he’s abrasive, okay? But he’s a patriot and his policies are there,” he said. “They’re on target, for me anyway. I’m into low fuel and food prices, low interest rates, a good economy, pro-police.”
Germanotta took another shot at Harris, saying he has no clue what she means with certain plans, like her repeated promises to make an “opportunity” economy.
“If you stack them up side-by-side, I don’t know what the hell she’s talking about,” he said.
While Germanotta will be backing Trump in the election, it’s likely his daughter will be supporting Harris. The musician has not made an official endorsement, but she has supported Democrats in the past, including in 2020 when she rallied for President Joe Biden against Trump.
Trump reacted at the time by attacking Lady Gaga and suggesting he could tell “stories” about her.
“Lady Gaga is not too good. I could tell you stories about Lady Gaga. I know a lot of stories about Lady Gaga,” he said.
