Jack Black’s Bandmate Has A Birthday Wish: ‘Don’t Miss Trump Next Time’

Just weeks after speaking at a fundraiser for President Joe Biden, actor Jack Black stood on stage with his band while bandmate Kyle Gass offered his reaction to the assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump: ‘Don’t miss Trump next time.”

Black, famous for titles like “Shallow Hal,” “Kung Fu Panda,” and the reboot of “Jumanji” — took the stage with his band Tenacious D in Sydney, Australia, over the weekend — and just as a song was ending, Black offered Gass the opportunity to make a birthday wish.

Gass responded by voicing his apparent support for the gunman who shot at a former president and killed a Pennsylvania father and firefighter, wounding at least two others. “Don’t miss Trump next time,” he said.

One month earlier, Black was on a different stage raising money for Biden, cracking jokes about his patriotic stars & stripes overalls.

“A few days ago, my manager called me and said George Clooney and Julia Roberts wanted me to help out the president, and speak here tonight, and I said, ‘I am in. When and where?’” Black said at the time.

“And then they hit me with the big one. They said, ‘Jack, you can’t go. You have nothing to wear. Your good suit is in the cleaners.’ Well, were they wrong? Because I had this to wear, my kick-ass American flag overalls — most patriotic outfit of all times. And that shut ’em up.”

Black’s speech took place at the same Hollywood fundraiser that led fellow actor George Clooney to the conclusion that Biden was not, in fact, up to the task of another campaign and another four years as president.

“The one battle he cannot win is the fight against time. None of us can,” Clooney observed in a New York Times op-ed. “It’s devastating to say it, but the Joe Biden I was with three weeks ago at the fund-raiser was not the Joe ‘big F-ing deal‘ Biden of 2010. He wasn’t even the Joe Biden of 2020. He was the same man we all witnessed at the debate.”
