"His friend didn't like Trump" is a little different to his friend publically endorsing an assassination attempt on their president.

Anyone who was aghast that 'OMG Tenacious D broke up' is no fan - they break up on every album, literally every show - it's a bit. Jack Black is no fan of Trump, he's publically stated the entire Apocalypto album was a response to Trump's 2016 win. He hates his guts.

That's very different to advocating for political assassination on stage.

The smart response was to back away from the situation, distance himself from KG, Kg to issue an apology, let it cool off - and then come back later. And would you look at that - so far that's exactly what's been done.
