Musicians React To Election Results

I feel sick.

— Janet Weiss (@jazzzhand) November 9, 2016

Trump winning would be nail in the coffin of legitimacy of many of the most powerful media-outlets. Disparity between truth and narrative.

California just passed legal marijuana!! #Election #California

Post Brexit … in the USA this is the opposite of Pres Obama election night in 2008. Its Halloween 2 weeks later #HauntedHouseOfHatred

Don't despair When there is a split in the elite and a popular movement the possibility for social change is high, Lets commit to moving fwd

As someone who arrived illegally to the U.S. & earned citizenship over the course of a decade, this feels like the end of an American Dream.

— Neon Indian (@NeonIndian) November 9, 2016

For me, this election was about the marginalized "the other". I feel so bad that this country has let them down. So bad.

America, this fucking sucks, but we will be here fighting for what we believe in, and the people we love. We will never give up on you.

— Sylvan Esso (@SylvanEsso) November 9, 2016

For my vision to come completely true Trump now must dissolve the Republic, move into Caesar's Palace in Vegas and declare himself Emperor.

— Sean Ono Lennon (@seanonolennon) November 9, 2016

I totally agree.

— Sean Ono Lennon (@seanonolennon) November 9, 2016

Think of all the free coverage @CNN and the rest of the media gave Trump and all the money they will make with him as president. #cialis

— Patrick Carney (@patrickcarney) November 9, 2016

Clinton was viable?

— Krist Novoselić (@KristNovoselic) November 9, 2016

My old tweet about missing the days of Trump being on 1 reality show for 1 hour a week now seems pretty damn lame. Apologies, America

Getting out to vote for Hillary was only about buying time.Time is over, & it better be on now. #BrainUP I was 20 when ReaganBush hit USAers

— Chuck D (@MrChuckD) November 9, 2016

@wikileaks cool she's a fool. But we're fucked. Trump isn't making any policy, whoever surrounds him is. See you after WW3

— FAKE NEWDS (@CHIRPENDALE) November 9, 2016

NBC media commentators are such giddy spineless twerps. Feel like I'm watching "The Bachelor"…sorry

— Stephen malkmus (@dronecoma) November 9, 2016

Hey! I think we might have a case for Trump not releasing his tax returns from the last several years! (said any sane person 2 years ago)

— Steven Drozd (@stevendrozd) November 9, 2016

another narrative: america continues, trump is a republican surrounded by others like him, and clinton was not progressive enough.

— Deerhoof (@deerhoof) November 9, 2016

I'm pretty sure @deerhoof grudgingly voted Hillary. The worst people in America just got validated, roads gonna get rougher

— FAKE NEWDS (@CHIRPENDALE) November 9, 2016

How I'm supposed to answer on uber driver's question "How are you?" The world is about to meet the abyss of the New Conservative Order.

folks, please don't be too down this morning. trump is a blip in the human story, the odd backward step. keep love in your heart.

— stuart murdoch (@nee_massey) November 9, 2016

Barron Trump reminds me of Damien from "The Omen" … coincidence???? #666

— Steven Drozd (@stevendrozd) November 9, 2016

Trump just said he looking at 8 years .

— Chuck D (@MrChuckD) November 9, 2016

anti-trump sensationalism and personal attacks on trump have backfired. abondoning then berating millenials and progressives has backfired.

— Deerhoof (@deerhoof) November 9, 2016

Hillary Rodham for 2020, you stupid motherfuckers

— Steven Drozd (@stevendrozd) November 9, 2016

Do not sit still. Do not weep. MOVE. We are not a nation that will let HATE lead us.

Wolf Blitzer is the P Diddy of news. It may work for entertainment but I see this WolfDude dancing up to Trump like he the new Biggie smfh

— Chuck D (@MrChuckD) November 9, 2016

Hate won. Bigotry won. Ignorance won. I'm terrified to come home to the no longer united states.

— Okkervil River (@okkervilriver) November 9, 2016

Even though Trump won it will never be ok to bully and trample entire groups of people for political gain. #IStandForDiversity #equality

— Michael Franti (@michaelfranti) November 9, 2016

Hilary was not an ideal candidate. Trump is a giant dangerous infant.

— Okkervil River (@okkervilriver) November 9, 2016

now that their job security is no longer tied to being a clinton crony, corporate media is suddenly going wild for bernie sanders&wikileaks

— Deerhoof (@deerhoof) November 9, 2016

It's like being arrested. Dramatic at the beginning. But then you start to figure out how to live and create in prison. You'll overcome.

— 𝖕𝖚𝖘𝖘𝖞 𝖗𝖎𝖔𝖙 (@pussyrrriot) November 9, 2016

I have never had much faith in governments..but still have an unshakable faith in people…in each other…&in our constitution's protection

— Blues Traveler (@blues_traveler) November 9, 2016

Looks like Putin was the first world leader who congratulated Trump. Hello, Putin. Hello, Trump. Hello, creepy patriarchal selfish morons.

— 𝖕𝖚𝖘𝖘𝖞 𝖗𝖎𝖔𝖙 (@pussyrrriot) November 9, 2016

white supremacy is now mainstream. shouting "fuck trump" isnt going to solve that. better to revise our politics of violence/tyranny/revenge

— Deerhoof (@deerhoof) November 9, 2016

5 trump promises we must make him keep: fair trade, no preemptive war, dont cut Soc Sec, more infrastructure spending, single payer

— Deerhoof (@deerhoof) November 9, 2016

I don't need to look thru my tweets to find when I first said we all better get used to idea of president trump way before he was nominated.

— Sean Ono Lennon (@seanonolennon) November 9, 2016

Just was watching the news… maybe they'll ask me to sing 'You Can't Always Get What You Want' at the inauguration, ha!

Commenting on social media, particularly as a C-list musician, seems pretty redundant right now.

— Frank Turner (@frankturner) November 9, 2016

Nevertheless I'd say this: the tragedy of the early 20th century, as I understand it, was the desertion of the centre ground.

— Frank Turner (@frankturner) November 9, 2016

Tempting as it is to fly to the other extreme, I think that building bridges, connection and understanding matter a lot right now.

The election is over.time for our country to heal."may God be gracious to us & bless us &make His face shine upon us &give us peace."

— Skillet (@skilletmusic) November 9, 2016

Well there it is. Many people's fears, including mine,have become reality. What now? The world has never felt more divided.

— MIKA (@mikasounds) November 9, 2016

This is a wake-up call to work harder than ever before, extend love to all, & fight & die if necessary to protect each other & this planet.
