Rocker Ted Nugent, who once referred to Hillary Clinton as a "devilbitch," visited President Donald Trump in the White House on Wednesday night while accompanied by former Alaska governor Sarah Palin and professional terrible rapper Kid Rock. The Trump White House cited privacy concerns as a key reason in the reversal. Thank you to President Trump for the invite!” Palin wrote on Facebook and Twitter. In a Facebook post Thursday morning, Palin thanked Trump for the invitation and shared photos of herself, Nugent, and Kid Rock around the desk in the Oval Office. Her post showed three pictures of Palin in the Oval Office, including one of her talking with Trump's son-in-law and adviser Jared Kushner, one of her talking with Trump on her own, and one in which she and Trump are joined by Nugent himself. When Nugent aroused controversy in 2012 for proclaiming that "if Barack Obama becomes the president in November, again, I will be either be dead or in jail by this time next year," Trump defended him on Twitter by claiming that Nugent was only using a "figure of speech."
– President Trump assembled a motley crew (though surprisingly no members of Mötley Crüe) for dinner on Wednesday. Time reports the president was visited by a trio of famous supporters: Ted Nugent, Kid Rock, and Sarah Palin, who posed with Trump in the Oval Office and mugged in front of a portrait of Hillary Clinton. While the White House isn't releasing any information about the meeting, Nugent says he met with the president "to make America great again." The rocker's presence in the Oval Office comes just two years after he called then-President Obama a "subhuman mongrel," according to NBC News. Salon notes Nugent has also repeatedly called Clinton a "b----."
