I can’t find a direct quote from Trent saying this anywhere except reposts on various social media, none of which appear to be Reznor official.

Can anyone verify this is a real quote or is it just made up crap?

This particular quote is made up.
Tragic. Any possibility he said it on tour?
Probably not this exact thing, but he has said a lot against Trump and MAGA.
I’ll take that over the alternative of say… A creepy video with RFK any day.
Technically, they all are.

And now, here’s a few non-made up words;

So, it’s a terrible lie? I’m hurt. Makes me wish this fragile society wasn’t in such a downward spiral.
Now there’s a comment with teeth.
These days, I’m afraid of Americans.
I can’t find it either…but I found this in The Village Voice from 2017: “the president of the United States is a complete fucking moron,” he seethes. “That’s what gets me the most — that he’s this vulgar, grotesque dope, everything I hate in people.”
