Singer and longtime Trump advocate Joy Villa announced that she registered as a Republican in a USA Today op-ed on Oct. 14. “Why? Because the extreme left is out of control,” she said.
Villa revealed that she voted for Barack Obama in 2008 as an independent. She also voted for Donald Trump in 2016 from the independent line. But the singer now decided to register as a Republican. “I’ll let you in on a secret: I’m actually a registered Republican for the first time in my life,” she wrote.
