Country music star Jason Aldean, who will perform at Liberty Ball for the inauguration, said Monday on CBS Mornings that President Donald Trump will usher in the “beginning of a new era for our country.”
Aldean said, “I’ve known President Trump for a few years and had a chance to spend a couple new years with him and play golf and different things. Obviously I’ve been a big supporter of his over the last few years. And so when he got elected I just called and said I don’t know what this looks like, but I would love to be there in some capacity and help celebrate, you know, the day for you and whatever that looks like, playing a song or sitting in the crowd watching or whatever it is, i just wanted to be part of it. Kind of went from there.”
He continued, “I think it’s a big day for our country and just you know, it’s been last few years have been, I don’t know, just kind of really divisive and just a lot of stuff going on and just hope this is kind of the beginning of a new era for our country and kind of getting back on track.”
