Kid Rock is enraged over the assassination attempt on Donald Trump.

On Saturday (July 13), the 53-year-old rocker — a staunch supporter of the former president — took to social media to share his anger over the shooting at Trump’s rally in Butler, Pa., where the presumptive GOP presidential nominee was struck in the ear and an audience member was killed.

“You f— with Trump, you f— with me,” Rock furiously yelled in a video posted on Instagram.

The short clip, which appears to have been recorded on a boat, finds the “We the People” singer-rapper shirtless and sporting black sunglasses with a “White Boy of the Year” baseball cap.

At Saturday’s Pennsylvania rally, held on the grounds of the Butler Farm Show, the shooter was immediately killed by the Secret Service after firing numerous shots from a nearby rooftop. The FBI has identified him as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks. A motive has not yet been determined.

Following the incident, Trump wrote on Truth Social that a bullet struck the upper part of his ear. Videos and photos from the event show the Secret Service quickly escorting the bloodied former president from the stage while Trump pumped his fist to the crowd. One rally attendee was killed and two additional audience members are in critical condition.

In addition to his passionate video, Rock also shared a link on his X (formerly Twitter) account to a “President Trump Authorized” GoFundMe page dedicated to the victims of the Pennsylvania rally. The effort had raised nearly $900,000 as of Sunday morning.

Rock, whose real name is Bob Ritchie, has been a major supporter of Trump over the years. The rapper-turned-southern-rocker visited the former president at the White House in 2017 and he has golfed with Trump on numerous occasions. In 2022, Rock spoke to Fox News commentator Tucker Carlson about his past interactions with Trump. He also called Trump “one of my besties” in a 2024 profile in Rolling Stone.

Kid Rock wasn’t the only musical artist who reacted to the Trump assassination attempt. Other acts — including 50 Cent, John Rich, Scotty McCreery, Soulja Boy, Randy Houser, Kid Cudi and Lil Pump — also shared their thoughts about the shooting.

“Trump was shot!!!” Rich, of Big & Rich, alerted his X followers, later adding, “They couldn’t beat him in a fair contest, so they tried to kill him. BUT THEY MISSED.”

“Praying for our country rn,” said country singer and American Idol alum McCreery.

“I know the vibes,” noted 50 cent, posting a clip of his track “Many Men (Wish Death)” from Get Rich or Die Tryin’. “We are all in trouble now!”
