Funny how all the old rockers, who left Britain in the 60’s because of their crushing tax penalties, are surfacing as almost Conservative-lite. Johnny Rotten was praising Trump just the other day. I realize Daltrey isn’t coming out in support of Trump, but he isn’t praising Hillary. They have lived the Socialist route and realize it is a soul stealing way of life.

I’m of that generation

What many under 55 only know from how history was written by the Left mind you is that being counter culture in the boomer era was not by default leftist

It was a rebellion against the staid establishment

At its roots

The politics built upon that was a cornucopia of issues that some embraced in total and some only pieces

Nearly everyone was somewhat counterculture but only a minority went whole hog lefty

White boomers voted majority GOP ever since they got the right to vote except maybe second Clinton tour 1972-

Daltrey was always sort of a Brit

Like Ray Davies and Bowie and Bryan Ferry

Clapton is very Brit....he’s been accused of all manner of malfeasance for his friendship with UKIP
