Iconic rock musician Bob Geldof, who wrote hit singles including ‘Do They Know It’s Christmas?’ and ‘I Don’t Like Mondays,’ said in a recent interview that it’s obvious President Donald Trump is heading for a landslide victory in November because the “absolutely pathetic” Democrat party has become too radical.

There isn’t a single candidate there who can win,” said Geldof, referring to the field of Democrat presidential candidates that has been winnowed down to the uninspiring choices of Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders. 

Geldof, 68, told The Daily Beast he thinks the party’s platform has become too radical.

They need to stop this fucking health care for all, and climate reduction. That’s not going to happen, so stop saying it. I know young people want that, and they’re correct to want it, and America deserves it, but it’s not going to happen in the term of a presidency, and it’s not even aspirational — not when the other side operates the way they do.”

Breitbart report: Geldof added that Democrats should return to a more moderate platform and embrace a spirit of openness and generosity toward other countries.

That will appeal to Americans, because that’s what they believe themselves to be. They’re not, but they believe themselves to be that,” he said.

Bob Geldof also sounded off on President Trump, saying his administration is hastening America’s demise.

Trump will reduce the American republic to a state of infantilism and a plutocracy run by the very few, very wealthy, to its own ends,” he told The Daily Beast.

We’re looking at something exactly like the fall of the Roman Empire. This is just pre-the end. Trump has got fine populist instincts, and therefore, speaks to the moment. But he is a vulgar fool, and a very dangerous one.

Geldof also claimed without evidence that President Trump is lying about the economy.

The lies about the economy he tells, at a cost of $1.9 trillion in debt, are just him behaving exactly as he’s always done: He borrows, the business is shit, it goes bankrupt, and he calls Chapter 11 and screws everyone who gave him money. America can’t call Chapter 11. What will get screwed are the people of America.”

Geldof was speaking to The Daily Beast in order to promote a new documentary about The Boomtown Rats titled Welcome to Boomtown, as well as the Rats’ new album, Citizens of Boomtown, its first in more than three decades.

The musician is a staunch liberal activist who actively campaigned against Brexit.

  1. fuckin Catholic leftist do-gooder wants to flood Europe with the 3rd world filth so he can be given a sainthood when he pegs it.

    • It’s insane to think anyone in America likes Hillary more than Biden or Bernie. They didn’t elect her last time because she’s hated. She couldn’t even fill a school gym. How is this time going to be any different to the other TWO?

  2. Those on the Left/Democrats, Liberals, Progressives, the “Fake News” mediums, etc. knowingly/purposely lie, lob false allegations, offer up farfetched/contrived “speculation”, misdirect, & utilize the “fake news” to spread rumors for the express purpose of “gaslighting”, causing chaos, ginning up fear/anger, fanning the flames of dissent, & inciting violence. “Fake News” mediums like CNN, MSNBC, the NYT, BuzzFeed, National Review, The Washington Post, social media platforms like Twitter, Google, Facebook, etc., late night hosts like Bill Maher, Jimmy Kimmel, Stephen Colbert, & the liberal left in Hollywood then purposely, exponentially increase/amplify & telegraph the anger, hatred, & violence of the Left, Progressives, Democrats, & their base against others across the nation/world by to divide, destabilize, & damage the nation, the President, & our citizens. This explains why they are viewed as the Enemies of the American People.

    SHOCKED by the blow-back, they proclaim their innocence while we all know that they are nothing but instigators with their incendiary/despicable reporting. They, like we, all learned in grade school that those who report the news must stick to the facts, “who, what, why, where & when”. Instead, they speculate, manipulate, contrive, edit audio/video, omit, & when all else fails, they fall back on their so called “anonymous sources”.

    Lacking even the slightest modicum of ethics, honor, & integrity, they are best described as intellectual contortionists, they bend/twist reality to fit a narrative of their own creation based on their own personal biases or that of their Elite masters, the Marxist Progressives and Demogogue Democrats ……..

  3. If it werent for the rockers and their freedoms of expression and their cool cats and hippy attitudes he might still have his daughter But the free love drugs sex and rock n roll of his democratic values murdered her by her own liberties. And his handiwork.
