I wonder if Jack Black wishes he had just kept quiet for a week for everyone to forget about it.
Fuck Jack Black. You stand by your homies. Even if they do something stupid.
Yeah I can’t believe his reaction to a crude joke about one of the worst people alive right now. I was shocked he cared that much
His reaction might have made it into the top 5 reactions to the shots as far as severity of results. The only other reactions that weren’t just words that I’m aware of are the SS eventually noticing and shooting the guy (plus increasing security), the one cop that shot the guy’s gun, and maybe Trump himself getting PTSD. So Jack Black might have had the 4th most severe reaction by cancelling that tour and rethinking any future collaborations.
Hindsight is 20/20 but he probably should have just cancelled a show or two and then would have seen that the whole thing was dropped because it wasn’t generating any sympathy for Trump (quite the opposite, the main sentiments I saw were “sucks he missed” and “we really shouldn’t say that it sucks he missed, even though a lot of us are thinking that”).
The way he sold it isn’t that he cares about Trump, but that he cared strongly about being a pacifist. Yeah alright, fair enough. But Kyle Gass is also a pacifist, realised he fucked up, and apologised from that perspective. So is Jack a pacifist, or does he just never give people second chances? :/
Personally, I think he’s tired of Tenacious D and this was a good way to kill it. Plus he has more money to lose than Kyle. And I’m sure there was some concern about a concert getting shot up, but I’m sure it was a distant third.
It kind of feels like him getting shot at by a registered republican was his campaign ‘jumping the shark’. I don’t condone it by any means but there’s a level of irony to how the last few months have played out
I disagree. Trump surviving the asassination gave him a huge publicly. It should also be mentioned that Biden resigned shortly after, so this event really shook up the overall trajectory of the election.

Nah, Biden’s health spooked the donors well before Trump got shot.
yeah whatever, pew pew, murica
