BRUJERIA Frontman JUAN BRUJO On Donald Trump Supporters – "They’re Insane; They Believe His Lies Like It's Truth"

Juan Brujo from Brujeria recently talked to Rock Overdose about the band’s forthcoming album, Pocho Aztlan, and offered his thoughts on controversial presidential candidate Donald Trump.

Rock Overdose: Recently, you released a brand new song (“Viva Presidente Trump”). What was the feedback so far from the fans?
 
Brujo: “People would think that we want to kill Trump and stuff like that. The title is ‘Viva Presidente Trump’, long live the President, because we want him to win. And we want him to win, to be President, so we can see how bad he’s going to be, and then go to war with him then. Then we fight. If he becomes President, we fight. But right now, he’s not. He’s just talking – whatever – and we don’t like him. But if he went, and starts doing stuff that’s serious damage… It’s about a fight with him because he’s not right, the guy’s crazy and I don’t have to talk about him because of what he’s saying to people, getting everybody here to hate. This pretty much ruined the country already, so it’s not a good thing.”

Rock Overdose: Unfortunately, he has a lot of fans. I don’t know why. Can you explain this?
 
Brujo: “The Donald Trump the people want? They’re insane. They believe his lies like it’s truth.”
 
 Rock Overdose: I’d like to ask if you have any plans about the next album and if it will take again so many years like this album.
 
Brujo: “Well, the answer comes in November in the USA election. Because, if Donald Trump wins, then you’ll probably see a record very soon. Because the Raza Odiada record, the second full album we did, I happened to write it to P. Wilson, the Governor of California then. I happened to meet him somewhere and saw how much he hated Mexicans. And so that second record came out, like, within a year after Matando Güeros and it was important to get the message out about that guy. And that guy… the song starts when we kill him. You know, the intro of this song starts like, ‘Kill this guy!’, and that’s how bad that guy was, and Trump is worse. So, if Trump wins, we’re gonna see a record really soon. It’s gonna be a lot about politics, and about him, and everything like that.”
