Cher said she will leave the country if Donald Trump is re-elected
Cher's recent video isn't the first time she has shown support for Kamala Harris. The singer had earlier mentioned that she would leave the country if Donald Trump is re-elected and opened up about her struggles under his tenure.
In an interview with The Guardian in October 2023, the singer said:
"I almost got an ulcer the last time. If he gets in, who knows? This time I will leave (the country)."
The singer's dislike for Trump comes from her concern for the future of trans people under his Presidency. It is pertinent to note that her child, Chaz Bono, identifies as trans.
In the interview with The Guardian, the singer revealed her concerns and admitted that she had no idea about Trump's plan for trans people.
