He wasn't fired for his opinion and he wasn't fired for being "racist."
He was fired because he brought politics into a performance that has nothing to do with politics. The state fair wants to make money, and what better way not to do that than alienate half of the audience? It was supposed to be a carefree performance, but he brought the heavy topic of politics into it. See why it was justified?

I know he wasn't fired for being racist, but this has been done before, nobody got fired.

It doesn't matter. His employers don't want politics brought into their performance, so they don't allow it. What's the problem?

But they should have been fired. The fair is not a place for political commentary, nor should the rodeo clowns be going off-script.
