Patti Smith thinks Donald Trump is a "horrible, narcissistic person".
Patti Smith
The 73-year-old singer is a big critic of the US President and she can't wait for him to leave the White House.
She said: "It’s been a terrible atmosphere to live in. You try to do your work and not let [politics] permeate your consciousness daily but it does. It’s very insidious."
Patti has met the billionaire businessman a number of times over the years - but she isn't a fan of him.
She told the Guardian newspaper: "I have encountered him in New York through the years and found him a horrible, narcissistic person and just a bad businessman. I’ve seen the debris of his deals.
"I think the damage he has done is going to be felt for a long time. It’s not going to be so easily healed because globally he has empowered people of a like mind."
Despite this, Patti will still take "huge psychological relief" in seeing Trump replaced in the White House.
She said: "I’m a natural optimist so I’m not without hope or inspiration. What matters is trying to clean up some of his mess and get some order.
"I’m doing that in my house. I’m a messy person, and I know that before I can do something creative or exciting I’ve first got to clear everything away."
Patti was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2007.
But the singer - who was married to Fred Smith between 1980 and 1994 - revealed she sees herself as a writer rather than a musician.
She said: "My daily practice since I was young has always been writing.
"I was married to a musician and my children are musicians, so I know how a musician thinks. It’s out of respect to [them] that I don’t like being called one."
