Joe Germanotta, the father of pop star Lady Gaga, has publicly endorsed former President Donald Trump for the 2024 election. Germanotta, a New York City restaurateur, made his endorsement on Fox News, stating that he believes Trump is a "patriot" and contrasts him with Democratic nominee Kamala Harris. Germanotta mentioned that he agrees with Trump's policies, despite acknowledging that the former president can be "abrasive."
This is not the first time Germanotta has publicly supported Trump, as he endorsed him on Twitter in 2020. The relationship between Lady Gaga and her father seems to be strained politically, as she has shown support for Harris and President Joe Biden. Lady Gaga sang the national anthem at Biden's inauguration and referred to Harris as "Queen Kamala" when they defeated Trump and Mike Pence in the 2020 election.
The endorsement from Joe Germanotta highlights the political divisions that can exist within families and among celebrities. Lady Gaga's support for the Democratic party contrasts with her father's backing of the Republican nominee. It is a reminder that individuals can have differing political views, even within the same family.
As the 2024 election approaches, the endorsement from Joe Germanotta serves as a reminder of the diverse political landscape in the United States. The differing opinions within the Germanotta family reflect the broader divisions that exist across the country. It will be interesting to see how these dynamics play out as the election season progresses.
