Joe Germanotta — the father of Lady Gaga and a prominent New York City restauranteur — has publicly endorsed former President Donald Trump, saying he supports Trump’s policies regarding the economy, the border, and policing.
In an appearance on Fox & Friends on Thursday, Joe Germanotta also slammed Kamala Harris, saying she will “say whatever she needs to say to get elected.” He also blasted Harris for the “invasion” of illegal immigrants that has occurred under her watch.
Germanotta is the owner of the restaurant Joanne Trattoria, located on New York’s Upper West Side not far from Lincoln Center. Since the Biden-Harris administration came to power, he has repeatedly recounted how business has suffered as his regular customers are no longer coming with the same frequency due to soaring migrant crime in the neighborhood.
On Thursday, he gave his backing to Trump.
“I endorse Donald Trump. I endorse his policies,”he said on Fox & Friends.
“They’re two vastly different people. One of them is pure, and he’s a patriot. The other is just going to say whatever she needs to say to get elected. That’s basically what I hear, and I’m tired of hearing about her neighbors’ lawn,” he said.
