Young wrote on his website on Tuesday: "When I go to play music in Europe, if I talk about Donald J. Trump, I may be one of those returning to America who is barred or put in jail to sleep on a cement floor with an aluminum blanket.
"That is happening all the time now. Countries have new advice for those returning to America. You can read about it at the CANADA Desk. If I come back from Europe and am barred, can't play my USA tour, all of the folks who bought tickets will not be able to come to a concert by me.
"That’s right folks, if you say anything bad about Trump or his administration, you may be barred from re-entering USA.

Then it seems to me that if you voted for Kamala Harris over Trump, that makes it possible for you to go to jail or be detained, punished in some way for not showing allegiance to what? How spineless is that?
"Trump is not able to stand up to anyone who does not agree with his ideas? Remember, all months have 30 days."

The lawsuit was eventually dropped.
