Ted Nugent Is Facing Backlash After He Made A Controversial Remark About Volodymyr Zelensky

Ted Nugent, an American musician, was chastised online after making contentious remarks about Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. On March 25, while singing at Donald Trump’s gathering in Waco, Texas, the 76-year-old singer referred to Ukraine’s president as a “homos*xual weirdo.” Warning: This page includes delicate topics such as racism and p*dophilia remarks. Readers should use caution.

Ted Nugent’s remarks came during his tax tirade, during which he mentioned several items that the federal government is spending on that he has not authorized. This involves assisting Ukraine during the Russia-Ukraine war.

“I’m a guitarist, and I have a few requests.” Protect my territory. I have two excellent suggestions: return my tax money. I did not give permission for Planned Parenthood to murder infants….I’d like my money returned! I didn’t give any money to some homos*xual eccentric in Ukraine! “I need my money back!”

Nugent was alluding to the military and civilian help that Joe Biden’s government has been giving to Ukraine since the war started in February 2022. According to the Kiel Institute for the World Economy, the United States provided Ukraine with $48 billion in aid between January 24 and November 20, 2022.

In February of this year, Biden also announced a second round of military assistance to assist Ukraine in fighting off Russian soldiers in key towns such as Kyiv, Kherson, Odesa, and Bakhmut, where Russian and militia forces had been facing Ukrainian forces for months.

Following Ted Nugent’s bigoted remarks about Volodymyr Zelensky, Twitter users called him out, noting his previous offenses.

Twitter users were outraged after Ted Nugent’s remarks about Volodymyr Zelensky went global. Several users went to social media to label him a p*dophile and to criticize his improper behavior, claiming that the Ukrainian president would never do such a thing. Others chastised him for urinating in his trousers, using drugs, and avoiding military duty, and claimed he spoiled the national anthem at the gathering.

During his appearance at Donald Trump’s gathering, Ted Nugent observed a minute of quiet for those imprisoned for their roles in the January 6 Capitol disturbance, referring to them as “political prisoners in the gulags of Washington D.C.” Furthermore, the performer requested that the country’s boundaries be protected with government money.
