Three celebrities have weighed in on the 2016 presidential candidates ... well, mostly Donald Trump:

  • Azealia Banks went on quite a rant Sunday night on Twitter, and though the rapper started off by saying she'd be voting Trump, the whole thing ended up being satire, Salon reports. Sample tweets: "I only trust this country to be what it is: full of s---. takes s--- to know s--- so we may as well, put a piece of s--- in the White House." And: "In conclusion, I think Donald trump is evil like America is evil and in order for America to keep up with itself it needs him."

  • Kid Rock, though, appears to actually like The Donald. "I'm digging Trump," the rocker, who once campaigned for Mitt Romney, tells Rolling Stone. "My feeling: Let the motherf---ing business guy run it like a f---ing business. And his campaign has been entertaining as s---."
  • Add Adele to the list of musicians not in favor of Trump, however—or at least not in favor of him using her music. After Trump played "Rolling in the Deep" at some of his Iowa rallies and Mike Huckabee released a parody of her new single, "Hello" (yes, really), Adele's spokesperson issued a statement noting that "Adele has not given permission for her music to be used for any political campaigning," per the Raw Story.
