On November 4, the presidential elections were held in the USA. However, the next day, after counting all the electoral votes, it was announced that the Republican candidate, Donald Trump, won by a landslide.
The former president, a billionaire and bankruptcy claimant, is facing a series of charges, including violations of the RICO Act, attempts to influence election results in the state of Georgia, and falsifying documentation. He defeated Kamala Harris, a lawyer and the vice president from the Democrats in the current term. Let us remember that in many countries, Trump could not become president because he is a convicted felon.
The elections in the United States have deeply divided society, with many stars and celebrities voicing loud support for their candidates. Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, Lady Gaga, Bad Bunny, Eminem, and Billie Eilish supported Kamala Harris.
Billie Eilish warns against Donald Trump. She dedicated a song to all women
"Someone who hates women so, so deeply is about to be the president of the United States of America. So, this song is for all the women out there. I love you, I support you," said Billie Eilish at a concert in Nashville before performing the song "Your Power" from her second album, "Happier Than Ever."
The song by Billie talks about a toxic relationship between a man and a woman, manipulation, and emotional dependency. It's no coincidence she decided to perform this song and dedicate it to those who fear Trump's presidency. It is also worth noting that "Your Power" was not previously on the setlist—Billie performed it for the first time on the ongoing tour.
