Pop star turned left wing activist Cher has announced she’ll leave the United States if Donald Trump wins the 2024 election.
It’s not the first time we’ve heard a celebrity promise to pack their bags if a political race doesn’t go their way. But every time it happens, it’s hard to shake off the tone of superiority, as if their departure would be a loss for the rest of us.
Cher’s been openly supportive of Democrats like Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton, and even claimed that Trump’s election in 2016 nearly gave her an ulcer.
It’s worth asking: how do such comments land with ordinary Americans? Think about the coal miner in West Virginia or the small-town shopkeeper in Texas.
Those are people dealing with real challenges—jobs, healthcare, education—not ulcers caused by election results.
Cher’s way with words isn’t new. She’s called the Republican party “Nazis,” a disgraceful exaggeration that cheapens the real horrors of history.
She’s also claimed that the Supreme Court is “responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of American women” because of its stance on abortion.
These kinds of over-the-top statements show how out of touch she is with regular Americans, who respect the Constitution and look for balanced solutions to complex problems.
Here’s the thing: Cher’s dramatic vow to leave America if Trump wins again might just give conservatives another reason to vote for him.
After all, many conservatives are tired of being talked down to by Hollywood elites. They see America differently—a place of opportunity, where freedom and personal responsibility matter.
Cher’s departure could be seen as a positive sign, a breaking away from the culture of celebrity lecturing.
Moreover, Cher’s strong words can actually fire up conservatives. When she says things like the election of Trump will be the “beginning of the end of freedom,” it might just rally conservative voters.
For many, the end of freedom looks more like an America where the Constitution gets trampled under the heels of progressive ideas.
So, when Cher says she’ll leave the country if Trump wins, it’s more than just a personal decision. It’s a sign of the big cultural gap between Hollywood elites and everyday Americans.
It’s a reminder of why elections matter, why conservative values still hold weight, and why the voice of ordinary people can’t be drowned out by a few loud celebrities.
If Cher does decide to leave, some conservatives may see it as a win—a moment where America starts to move back toward unity and away from divisive grandstanding. And for them, that would be a sweet tune indeed.
