Linda Ronstadt blasted Donald Trump for bringing his hate show campaign rally to the Linda Ronstadt Music Hall in her hometown of Tucson, Arizona, on Thursday. But the singer saved the sharpest statement for later in her Instagram takedown of the Republican presidential nominee.

Trump first ran for President warning about rapists coming in from Mexico, the Blue Bayou performer wrote on Wednesday. Im worried about keeping the rapist out of the White House.

Trump was found liable for sexually abusing author E. Jean Carroll in a civil trial but the judge wrote that he essentially committed rape as many people commonly understand the word .

Ronstadt, whose numerous hits include Youre No Good, sang a similar tune in rebuking the former president in her post:

Donald Trump is holding a rally on Thursday in a rented hall in my hometown, Tucson. I would prefer to ignore that sad fact. But since the building has my name on it, I need to say something.

It saddens me to see the former President bring his hate show to Tucson, a town with deep Mexican-American roots and a joyful, tolerant spirit.

I dont just deplore his toxic politics, his hatred of women, immigrants and people of color, his criminality, dishonesty and ignorance although theres that.

Ronstadt called the Trump administrations separation of migrant families a humanitarian catastrophe and said there is no forgiving or forgetting the heartbreak he caused.
