Iron Maiden drummer Nicko McBrain recently revealed that he declined an invitation to play golf with Donald Trump.

Variety reports that McBrain's refusal was due to his "staunch anti-MAGA beliefs." In an interview with The Telegraph, McBrain expressed that Trump and his "bunch of cronies" should be put in jail.
