Axl Rose Gets Into It With Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin

Guns N' Roses were part of the 2012 induction class, but Axl wanted no part. In a statement shortly before the ceremony, Rose said, "I strongly request that I not be inducted in absentia and please know that no one is authorized nor my anyone be permitted to accept any induction for me or speak on my behalf. Neither former members, label representatives nor the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame should imply whether directly, indirectly or by omission that I am included in any purported induction of 'Guns N' Roses.'" Considering the crazy success of the GN'R's "Not In This Lifetime" reunion tour, this statement has aged awkwardly.

The COVID-19 pandemic is affecting people in different ways. For example, Guns N’ Roses frontman Axl Rose is angrily tweeting about the Federal Government.

 

One of my favorite storylines of the last few years is the evolution of “Woke” Axl Rose. Well, Woke Axl is at it again and he’s got some new Twitter beef. Yesterday, Axl took to the web to take on Secretary of the Treasury Steve Mnuchin.

It's official! Whatever anyone may have previously thought of Steve Mnuchin he's officially an asshole.

 

It didn’t take long for the Treasury Secretary to notice Axl’s tweet, and he responded. The problem is, he added what he thought was a US flag emoji to his response, but it was actually the flag of Liberia.

Mnuchin eventually deleted his tweet, then sent it again with the correct flag, but not before Axl used the mistake to double down on attack.

@stevenmnuchin1 My bad I didn't get we're hoping 2 emulate Liberia's economic model but on the real unlike this admin I'm not responsible for 70k+ deaths n' unlike u I don't hold a fed gov position of responsibility 2 the American people n' go on TV tellin them 2 travel the US during a pandemic.

 

How does Axl have the time to Twitter troll, work on a children’s book, and track new Guns N’ Roses music? Probably because, like us, he has nothing but time nowadays.
