Overview

• At the Vans Warped Tour stop in Long Beach, Dropkick Murphys opened their set by dedicating “First Class Loser” to President Donald Trump with frontman Ken Casey labeling him “a guy who wears orange makeup, shits his pants in his diapers, rapes women, touches kids.”
• During the performance, the band displayed a sequence of video clips and document scans linking Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, including flight logs, 1992 party footage and a 2002 New York Magazine quote.
• The dedication follows the band’s recent withdrawal from the Punk in the Park series after uncovering a pro-Trump donation by the promoter.
• Dropkick Murphys have repeatedly confronted MAGA supporters on stage, equating Trump hats with cult symbols and urging fans to reject what they view as authoritarian ideology.
• Their latest protest coincides with growing public demands for full disclosure of Epstein records as the White House continues to withhold additional files and labels reports of Trump’s appearance in them as fake news.
