Rod Stewart’s Strep Throat Mocked By Donald Trumps' Fans After 'Orange' Remark

Rod Stewart is no stranger to making crowds go wild, but he got social media users screaming "Karma" for the wrong reasons.

The British rock and pop icon became the newest enemy of Donald Trump's fans after he bashed the former POTUS' comments about Kamala Harris's ethnicity. However, his criticism sparked a wave of backlash.

In response to Rob Stewart's strep throat announcement, Donald Trump's fans celebrated his condition as a well-deserved punishment for calling the politician "orange."

Days after he labeled Trump "orange," Stewart shared a statement announcing his non-appearance at an upcoming event. He dropped the update on Instagram with the message reading:

"I'm desperately sorry to miss this 200th show celebration. Most people can work with strep throat, but obviously not me. I'm absolutely gutted."

"I've been looking forward to this concert for so long. My deepest regrets for any inconvenience this has caused. Thankfully, we'll now be returning in 2025, and I hope to see you all there," Stewart concluded, signing off with his name.

Despite receiving over 10,000 likes, the post's comment section was overrun by Trump fanatics. These critics mocked Stewart's condition, claiming it was divine punishment for his "orange" remark.

"Love u, Rod, but seems you got karma from your orange comment," a fan noted, while another quipped, "Oh reeely not because of low ticket sales & your stupid political comments? Karma much, Rod? Just using your cult lingo."

"Trump took a bullet to the head didn't miss a gig. You lost me as a lifelong fan with your BS post the other day. Now I'm a troll on this page," an Instagram user declared, while a fellow critic added:

"There you go. Should have kept your Trump comment to yourself. You are an entertainer, or so I thought. I guess AI can't be as big of a fan as your big mouth."

The drama between Stewart and Trump's fans began after the former POTUS claimed he didn't know Kamala Harris was Black until she suddenly decided to identify as a Black person.

The "Tonight's the Night" singer played on Trump's words in an Instagram post, sharing side-by-side pictures of the politician's skin progressing from white to orange. He added the statement:

"I didn't know he was Orange until a number of years ago when he happened to turn Orange."

"I respect either one, but he obviously doesn't because all of a sudden, he made a turn, and he went — he became an Orange person. I think somebody should look into that," Stewart concluded.

The celebrities in Harris's corner have a knack for throwing jabs at Trump, with The Blast reporting that "Parks and Recreation" star Nick Offerman joined the list. He participated in the "Comics for Kamala" event, slamming the former president's troubled history.

"I'm powerfully grateful to vote for Presidential candidate Kamala Harris, who didn't just prosecute rapists, but also is not one herself," Offerman said, referencing Trump's liable count for sexually abusing advice columnist E. Jean Carroll.

"I've written a song for the evening from the point of view of one of these Republicans that might have once been blind but now can see a way clear to decency," he continued, bringing out his guitar for a rendition of the "God Bless The USA" tune.

Offerman's parody of the "God Bless The USA" tune featured multiple jabs at Trump, from his sexual life to his status as the first former U.S. president to be convicted of a crime.

"He said to march on the Capitol, well if the president says 'it's okay.' And I don't mind sex with p-rn stars; I'd do it too if I had the guts, but when it comes to f—king the furniture, well, that's just f—king nuts," Offerman sang.

"So I'm proud to be a Kamala man who has quit the GOP 'cause I just can't abide a man who's tried for 34 felonies," the actor continued, describing the politician and his running mate JD Vance as "f—king weird."

Kamala Harris and Donald Trump have strong fan bases, each actively rooting for their preferred presidential candidate. Who will be victorious at the end of the race?
