“God has blessed America, and together with President Trump, we will make America great again,” he concluded.

In 2016, Greenwood said he was “honored” to support Trump, emphasizing that the ‘s policies aligned with his beliefs about America’s greatness and the importance of strong national defense and economic growth.

Kanye “Ye” West

Rapper Kanye “Ye” West made headlines for supporting Trump during his first term in office, famously wearing one of his and using his platform to praise the former star of The Apprentice.

The support led to West meeting with Trump on several occasions.

A possible inaugural performance would mark a significant return to the spotlight for West.
