While some people are still deciding how they will vote, Tommy Lee is already planning on how he will deal with the results of the US presidential election.
In a recent interview, Lee opened up about his feelings regarding the commander in chief and why he may be relocating to another country if Donald Trump beats out Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden.
Lee, who was born in Athens, Greece, told The Big Issue he may return to his country of origin if Trump is elected to stay in the White House for another four years.
“Dude, I swear to god if that happens then I’m coming over to visit the UK. I’m out of here. I’ll go back to my motherland, go back to go Greece and get a house on one of the islands,” he said.
“The thing that stings the most is that I feel like we’re embarrassing,” Lee added.
The Mötley Crüe drummer admitted he thinks people overseas think the US is a joke and are questioning the choices made by voters. Lee suggested that people in other countries want Americans to “stop voting for celebrities and get someone real to run the country.”
Lee isn’t the first celebrity who threatened to leave the US if Trump was elected. When Trump first ran for president back in 2016, “Girls” alum Lena Dunham and comedian Chelsea Handler stated that they would move to Canada if Trump was elected.
However, when the former reality star beat his Democrat opponent Hillary Clinton, the stars ultimately remained in the US to use their platforms to fight injustice for others.
Election Day is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, Nov. 3, in the US.
