Watch out, President Trump. If you don't shape up, Bono says there's going to be trouble.

That's right, the U2 frontman appeared alongside one of everyone's favorite Trump-hating late-night talk show hosts, Jimmy Kimmel, to issue a serious warning to the president over his cuts to USAID funding.

From Breitbart:

'I co-founded the ‘One' campaign, which is by design bipartisan,' Bono told Kimmel, 'and we've got a lot of very religious Catholics, evangelicals, conservatives who are very, very, very angry with the person that they voted into office having demolished instruments of mercy and compassion like USAID or PEPFAR which had saved 26 million lives of people who had AIDS around the world.'

'That's the America that we love, that's the America that we all want to be part of and they are not happy, and there will be — there will be trouble,' he warned.

Bono tried to peddle this same line on Joe Rogan, but was quickly checked.

Bono didn't elaborate on what kind of "trouble" this may be, of course.

Maybe he just means another mediocre album.
