Dee Snider has no interest in going into politics.
In an interview, the Twisted Sister frontman was asked if he would be willing to take the job as House Speaker now that the chair has been vacated.
Snider explained, “I get asked a lot to enter the realm of politics because people think I’m sort of a voice of reason. To the point where one group, it was tied to The Lincoln Project, actually, called me up and they said, ‘Not taking no for an answer. We’ve already started the Super PAC. You’re running.’”
“I didn’t even say, ‘For what?’ I said, ‘Guys, it’s flattering that you’re working that hard, but I’ve seen the job, and it’s awful.’ Those people are awful people, and that’s across the board,” he continued.
Snider went on to say, “I’m sure some people get in there with hopes of making a change, but they get tainted and it’s all about their personal agendas and pleasing their financers more than their constituents. So I don’t want the job. No, thank you.”
