System of a Down have long been known to preach left-leaning ideals in both their music and social media posts, but not drummer
John Dolmayan. In fact, he’s now singing the praises of President Trump as the “greatest friend to minorities.”
In the midst of racial tension across the United States following the death of George Floyd in police custody, Trump
tweeted, “My Admin has done more for the Black Community than any President since Abraham Lincoln. Passed Opportunity Zones with @SenatorTimScott, guaranteed funding for HBCU’s, School Choice, passed Criminal Justice Reform, lowest Black unemployment, poverty, and crime rates in history… And the best is yet to come!”
Dolmayan shared an image of Trump along with the above quote on Instagram, and added, “Let’s not let the narrative that’s being spun make us forget the truth of this statement. The most attacked president in history yet the greatest friend to minorities! Don’t believe it? Look at the stats. Don’t like it, doesn’t change the truth of it.”
