Tenacious D’s Kyle Gass put himself in the proverbial line of fire for making a joke about the assassination attempt of Donald Trump.
The rock duo, comprised of Gass, 64, and Jack Black, 54, was performing at the ICC Sydney Theatre in Australia on Sunday, the day after Trump, 78, was shot in the ear at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
Black brought out a birthday cake for Gass, who turned 64 that day, and asked him to “make a wish,” as seen in fan footage.
“Don’t miss Trump next time,” Gass responded.
The audience laughed at Gass’ remark.
However, the comment wasn’t received as well online. Fans took to X (formerly Twitter) to slam Gass and defend the former president.
“Extremely poor taste,” one person tweeted.
