    While I upvoted for your spirit, most of the folks I make a living from as a basshole have red hats at home. They fuckin’ love good live music if you separate them from Trump’s diaper for a minute.

    We are a lefty-as-fuck folk trio, and our elephant-flavored fans listen, dance, and usually keep their treason to themselves. They get real quiet when we sing about Sporkfoot, though… 🤷‍♂️

      A shocking number of GOPers love leftist music. Remember when Rand Paul said his favorite band was Rage Against The Machine?

          I doubt he’s listened to any of the more recent songs. Em comes out swinging in favor of gun control and apologizes to Kim and his mom and talks about his feelings. Oh, and that he hates Trump.

          It occurred to me the other day, he was pretty ahead of the curve on talking about his feelings. Beautiful straight opens up with him saying he’s depressed. It’s ironic, but Eminem was ahead of the curve on men starting to talk about their emotions. Maybe that’s true of musicians in general though.

            I agree, IMO he’s just another hopeful politician awkwardly entice a “new” demographic

            Edit- and failing, I’m enjoying the failing aspect
