Dixie Chicks Perform with Background Portraying Donald Trump as the Devil
Breitbart.com ^ | 4 Jun 2016 | Jerome Hudson

The Dixie Chicks kicked off their DCX MMXVI World Tour Friday in Cincinnati by performing in front of a massive backdrop showing Republican presumptive presidential nominee Donald Trump with devil horns on his head and a satanic mustache and goatee.

Last night’s politically-charged performance wasn’t the first time the Texas-based country music band used their celebrity status to take shots at a major Republican party leader.

During a performance in London in 2003, Dixie Chicks lead singer Natalie Maines told the crowd that she was “ashamed the president of the United States is from Texas.” Maines’ attack on President George W. Bush led to music stations across the United States pulling the Chicks from their radio playlists.

Nearly 10 years after attacking Bush, Maines doubled down, saying, “I was right from the beginning.”

She later tweeted that she was right to attack Bush, calling her detractors “#dummies.”

The 41-year-old has bashed Trump before Friday’s night concert. The singer took to Twitter back in January and tossed out a recycled joke about Donald Trump’s hair.

Hey! In retaliation for Manes’ temper tantrum, I had a Chick-Fil-A meal today. So did my wife.

Maybe we ate some of their southern relatives.

This is “Chicken War”!! Man your dinner table; Polish your forks and knives; Bite!!

this world tour should take them to Switzerland, The Netherlands and the UK. Current conditions there might open their eyes. Otoh, we’re dealing with middle-aged women who think like this: “Maines commented, “The entire country may disagree with me, but I don’t understand the necessity for patriotism. Why do you have to be a patriot? About what? This land is our land? Why? You can like where you live and like your life, but as for loving the whole country ... I don’t see why people care about patriotism.” Sweeting, Adam (14 June 2006). “How the Chicks survived their scrap with Bush”. London: The Daily Telegraph.

They’re only back because it’s an election year and the dems think they can be relevant... They can’t.

These people are insane leftists. But I repeat myself.

I’ve never seen such insanity. All the while they embrace the lying bozo usurper.

Maines died, and went to hell. The Devil sent her back to foment people. The change in hairstyle marks the point in time.

I thought leftists didn’t believe in God or the devil.

I would think even a diehard Clinton supporter would think that looks pretty ridiculous. There are more clever ways for a liberal musician to make their point if they absolutely must interject politics in their act. Humor is the best weapon. Ridicule your opponent rather than put horns on them. I doubt the Dixie Chicks even believe in the devil. Good grief.

They did learn a lesson; after losing country fans they are now targeting the leftie crowd. Better something than nothing...

Haters got to hate!

That is what the left keep saying, but who is it that shows their hate. Usually it is the left by the their words and actions.

I come to realize that the left first hate themselves, and then they hate their country.

They probably wrote off all expenses to the show as a campaign donation. Hope their sales go down again for this one.

And actually, they are doing Trump a favor. To go on their hit list, with the way many think of them, that’s an endorsement.

They had a small crowd. Far more empty seats than full seats. They are trying to generate controversy as a way to get attention and sell more seats.
