Trump has enough musicians sending him Cease & Desist orders for using their work already, does he really want to get on the bad side of the Rolling Stones?
I see a black wall and I want to pull it down.
Vanta black?
It’s spelled Ivanka.
Trump actually used “You Can’t Always Get What You Want” at his rallies?
Isn’t he the guy whose message is “I will give you—my loyal supporters—everything you want?”
Wait - are you looking for consistency from this idiot?
He probably got the idea from Microsoft.
Yeah, I would expect something more along the lines of that song that Kermit’s evil doppelgänger sung in Muppets Most Wanted:
The concept of “defeating” something by having (so far) survived it personally as it achieves record-setting strategic gains all around you is…novel.
Potentially straight into “I do not think that word means what you think it means” territory.
I read a particular take on this a day or so ago:
Trump hasn’t defeated anything, let-alone Covid. He has - thus far - managed to survive it.
Jonas Salk didn’t survive polio - he was careful enough, and lucky enough, to never catch it. He did, however, absolutely defeat it (with significant assistance from various other parties).
You have to remember that conservatives only hear the main refrain of a song and never bother to dive into the context of the lyrics. I’m sure it was seen as an “own the libs” power move. I wouldn’t be surprised if they used something like Stairway to Heaven to appeal to the evangelicals. And it would probably work.
