using his song 'fortunate son' since he does NOT endorse trump

"I wrote this song because, as a veteran, I was disgusted that some people were allowed to be excluded from serving our country because they had access to political and financial privilege. I also wrote about wealthy people not paying their fair share of taxes."

Fogerty goes on to explain that Trump falls into both of these categories.
"The fact that Mr. Trump also fans the flames of hatred, racism and fear while rewriting recent history, is even more reason to be troubled by his use of my song," he concluded.

Possible. :)
mind you, i don't know who was responsible for that choice: maybe an anti-trump worker forced to be there? or a trumpite who thinks it says all they want to say, i.e fuck it, if i live i live, if i die it is what it is

It's a favorite song of the angry white males that Trump needs to come out in droves to keep any hope of winning alive.
 
Trump is a lot like the Chinese knock-off industries-- he rips off other people's artistic and development work for his own profit.

He has not done an honest day's work in his entire live, and his Cult-45 followers are unethical enough to admire him for that.

^^ anti-civil rights communist....talks about other people not working and being unethical. :rolleyes:
 
The NYC bandleader sang "To Russia With Love" at Trump's

inauguration party. I know some of the musicians who did that gig.

BTW, Donner is a mega piece of shit and a mega coke head.
 
Its sort makes you think about things when trump takes other peoples private property and just uses it for his own needs

What other song would the privileged pied piper play???

Seriously, someone on the Trump team HAD to be trolling Trump and his supporters with that song choice.

It's way too "on the nose" to be an innocent oversight.
 
i've noticed a couple of times lately that they play 'ymca' at his rallies, complete with the arm and hand signals. do you think he knows that 'the village people' were the gayest group ever and that 'ymca' is really about tricking at the gym?

It's a favorite song of a lot of us who were there at that time. Keep in mind that when this song was new, the donald was paying a doctor to tell the draft board he had bone spurs while the rest of us losers went off to war. Yep, nothing like privilege bought with good old cash. Fuck a bunch of entitled egg-sucking assholes like the one in the oval office.

I'd debate that. I think it was a toss-up between them and Queen. But it is delightful he didn't pay attention to who they were.

Oh look the self loathing white guilt dispenser is showing her racism and sexism again.

OH I forgot it's pointed at the "correct" demographic so that makes it ok...SOOOOOOO progressive.

Angry STUPID white males if they don't realize that rich draft dodgers like Trump iwere exactly who he was raging against.

SAD!!!
 
In my view, the people that did this are more offensive than those who fled the country or openly objected/protested.

Yup.

Conscientious objectors and protestors for sure.

Those who fled, 100%....at least they left.

I'm sure it's their whiteness that's the key factor there.

LOL.....racist shit stains gotta racist.

FecesFan must not have ever seen a Trump rally or fails to accept the reality of who makes up the majority of Trumps base.

He also fails to realize that just about the only demographic who had the ability to buy their way out of military service in American history were rich white males.

FecesFan is detached from reality which explains his inability to intelligently evaluate an issue and formulate a coherent response.

SAD!!!

Not at all...my responses are just fine, that's why you hide from them.

And Laz sees EVERYTHING through the lens of race.

We know why :D
