"He could send masked men around to shoot me in the head." Former #PinkFloyd frontman #RogerWaters says that his vocal opposition to "evil" US President Trump could get him killed

"Roger Waters has suggested that his political views, and specifically his opposition to 'evil' Donald Trump, could get him assassinated on the US President's orders.
"The former Pink Floyd man made the claim during an interview with British broadcaster Piers Morgan on January 16.
"Waters holds divergent views to Trump on many social and political issues, and makes no secret of his opposition to his presidency. During the course of the interview he criticises the US President for his intervention in the domestic affairs of Venezuela and Iran, and argues that he 'governs for the benefit of the #oligarchs and the very rich'.
" 'He's demented,' Waters says. "He's obviously very evil, but now he's demented as well as being very evil. He was always a real scumbag. Everything he's ever done is awful in every way. You might think Donald Trump's a jolly good chap, #MAGA, all that crap, none of which he believes. All he believes is in lining his pockets and the pockets of #JaredKushner (Trump's son-in-law), and maybe some of his other children, and his friends #ElonMusk and #MarkZuckerberg and all the rest of the oligarchs, who are all in the same cabal."
