The Osbournes are a bunch of Trump supporters. After the (allegedly) staged assassination attempt, the whole family hopped on The Osbournes podcast to sing his praises. I grew up with this family but I was so disgusted by their comments that I immediately unsubscribed and haven't followed anything Ozzy since...

Plus, his bitch wife is a grade-a asshole. Fired her many-year PA for not running BACK into a burning building to get her trinkets while he was in the back of an ambulance on a ventalator being treated for smoke inhalation from running in to the building to rescue her dog - which she'd left to burn. And she went on TV and gleefully recounted the story, laughing, because of what a good story it was.

Zero surprise she's a Trumper.

...

Fuck.

I didn't know that about him. I wish I still didn't.

No shade on you. Thank you for bringing it up.

EDIT: I can't find anything about Ozzy or the Osbournes supporting Donald Trump, and most of the articles I can find even regarding the two are Ozzy calling Trump an out-of-touch old fool and the Osbournes sending him a C&D over his use of Crazy Train (with a note suggesting he use music from artists that actually support him, like Kanye, Kid Rock, and Ted Nugent). That said, I did find a podcast episode where they talk about the assassination attempt, but the synopsis doesn't say what they say about it. I guess I'll have to listen to it and judge for myself, when I have the spoons to do so.

I'm not 100% sure but I think this is the episode I was referencing. Have a listen and let me know (don't have time to check for myself; about to clock in for work):

Besides being a Trump supporter, Ozzy was also a huge backer of Israel.

allegedly staged? You don't have to be conspiracy theorist to hate Trump...

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 17 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I'm not a conspiracy theorist.

You have seen the footage from the newly released camera angle that was circulating a few days ago, right? Here it is with descriptive captions in case you haven't:
