Trump.<\/p>\n<p>Fronzak has long been known for courting provocation, from inflammatory lyrics in the band&#8217;s early catalog and public feuds, to adult film ventures, diss tracks, and various headline-grabbing stunts. Despite even launching a tongue-in-cheek presidential &#8220;campaign&#8221; in the past, Fronzak has generally been more reserved when it comes to directly engaging in overt political discourse.<\/p>\n<p>Over the weekend, Limp Bizkit guitarist Wes Borland reignited political debate after posting a message to his Instagram story condemning Trump supporters and urging them to unfollow him. Borland wrote:<\/p>\n<p>If any of my followers voted or support Trump or are still friends with anyone who supports the Trump administration you&#8217;re out. F*ck you. Never contact me again.<\/p>\n<p>The post quickly circulated online, drawing attention across social media platforms. Eventually getting to Fronzak, to which he responded:<\/p>\n<p>I thought he was smarter, kind of a retarded thing to say, there&#8217;s no reason to lose most of your fan base over a political opinion lmao<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">I thought he was smarter, kind of a retarded thing to say, there&#8217;s no reason to lose most of your fan base over a political opinion lmao<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Chris Fronzak (@FRONZ1LLA) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FRONZ1LLA\/status\/2018027135517024442?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">February 1, 2026<\/a> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Attila frontman Chris Fronzak has once again found himself adjacent to controversy, this time amid renewed backlash against&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":445582,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[57],"tags":[30126,236,209526,88,3608,3607,115658,1739,3,207769],"class_list":{"0":"post-445581","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-celebrities","8":"tag-attila","9":"tag-celebrities","10":"tag-chris-fronzak","11":"tag-entertainment","12":"tag-hardcore","13":"tag-lambgoat","14":"tag-limp-bizkit","15":"tag-metal","16":"tag-news","17":"tag-wes-borland"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/445581","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=445581"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/445581\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/445582"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=445581"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=445581"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=445581"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
