Hair metal singer icon Dee Snider might not allow Donald Trump to use his band's famous song "We're Not Going to Take It" at campaign rallies anymore. While the Twisted Sister frontman has previously expressed support for Trump, he's now worried about the Republican front-runner's extreme hate speech. "What's going on now has me questioning whether allowing the song to continue to be used," Snider said a radio interview on Thursday. "And it's very upsetting to me because I strongly don't agree with his extremist positions, and it's not so much, I know the man's not a racist, he's a friend of mine, but when you've got white supremacy groups aligning themselves with you and you don't denounce them."
