Kid Rock, the Detroit rapper of bawitdaba da bang a dang fame and outspoken supporter of President Donald Trump, announced on Wednesday that he may be running for a seat in the U.S. Senate in 2018 ― and no one can tell if they should believe him.
The famous rocker ― who also goes by Detroit cowboy, American badass or simply the Kid ― hinted at a bid for a Senate seat in Michigan by tweeting to his fans that the website KidRockforSenate.com is real.
Stay tuned, I will have a major announcement in the near future, he said after sharing a link to his site, which includes a picture of himself sitting in an office under a generic campaign logo for 2018 and above large text that asks, ARE YOU SCARED?
Other campaign messages on his website include Ill rock the party, Get in the Senate and try to help someone and Pimp of the nation.

If this is serious, can you say with certainty that this guy couldn't win?
I realize that there's plenty in his life that, in a pre-2016 America, would have been disqualifying.
He has a song catalog that ranges from "Balls in Your Mouth," "Killin' Brain Cells," "Fuck U Blind," and "Blow Me" in the early '90s to later songs such as "Rock n Roll Jesus" and "You Never Met a Motherfucker Quite Like Me" (which includes the line "I met the president when I was half stoned" .
You can watch a sex tape that features him along with Creed's Scott Stapp and four women. He had to pay $40,000 after getting into a fight with a guy at a Waffle House. And he doesn't seem to have a particularly profound grasp of politics, as we learned from this early 2016 Rolling Stone interview
