Linda Ronstadt is not happy that Donald Trump is speaking at an Arizona music hall that holds her namesake.
The singer and songwriter released a statement on Wednesday lashing out at the former president and calling him a rapist.
She said she needed to speak out after seeing toxic Trump was slated to deliver remarks at the Linda Ronstadt Music Hall. Ronstadt, unsurprisingly, said that she will vote for Vice President Kamala Harris in November.
Donald Trump is holding a rally on Thursday in a rented hall in my hometown, Tucson, Ronstadt wrote in a statement the day before his event there.
Linda Ronstadt questioned if she qualifies as a childless cat lady because her two adult children were adopted and now moved out and she lives along with her cat
I would prefer to ignore that sad fact, she continued. But since the building has my name on it, I need to say something.
The 78-year-old then went into all the reasons she hates Trump and opposes his policies.
The 2024 Republican nominee will speak Thursday afternoon in Tucson, before heading to Los Angeles for a press conference on Friday followed by a rally in Las Vegas, Nevada – the first since his debate with Kamala Harris on Tuesday.
Arizona and Nevada are both crucial swing states to win in the election as the winner will come down to the results in just seven battleground states.
There is no forgiving or forgetting the heartbreak he caused, Ronstadt lamented, specifically referencing his hawkish policies regarding the southern border.
The Youre No Good singer added: Trump first ran for President warning about rapists coming in from Mexico. Im worried about keeping the rapist out of the White House.

She also included in the postscript of her statement a message directed towards Trumps running mate, Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance.
Ronstadt noted that she never had biological children, but adopted two kids and raised them as a single mother. They are adults who are no longer at home, and the famed singer lives alone with a cat, she added.
Am I half a childless cat lady because Im unmarried and didnt give birth to my kids? Ronstadt questioned in her message to Vance.
She concluded: Call me what you want, but this cat lady will be voting proudly in November for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.
