[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Why? Why do they always close with that song?

Because "You Can't Always Get What You Want"
But if you try
sometime you find.
You get what you need.

[SamAdams76]

The woman on Right Side Broadcasting is wearing no shoes. That’s okay. She’s pretty nice looking.

[lee martell]

Probably because it’s true.
Probably to remind people that they’ll still need to be patient while he’s trying to get things done.
Rome wasn’t built in a day.

[gubamyster]

It should be obvious

[rfp1234]

It probably just means it’s one of PDJT’s favorite songs.

[Zhang Fei]

Maybe it’s his way of poking the Stones in the eye. They don’t want him using the song. But they don’t have a say - Trump’s campaign paid for it and has the right to use it. You might say you can’t always get what you want.

[be-baw]

It’s a great song. Maybe he just likes it. With all of his success, he must have had to endured more than his share of setbacks over the years. Maybe listening to that song helped him cope.

[wastoute]

I have read he likes to use the music of celebrities who claim in public they hate him but live in his buildings. Don’t know if it’s true. Elton John comes to mind.

[peggybac]

You can’t always get what you want
You can’t always get what you want
You can’t always get what you want
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You just might find
You get what you need, oh yeah

[mrsmith]

Probably a smack at the usual “politickin’”.
Cutious, too, if he’s ever discussed the choice.

[RooRoobird20]

I love the fact that Trump’s entrance song is Lee Greenwood’s “God Bless the USA.”

[DCPatriot]

...for the same reason Wade Boggs ate fried chicken everyday during his hitting streaks.

[Equine1952]

Never gave that much thought, but maybe he’s being magnanimous by consoling Hillary voters. Bwaaahaaaaa! Soon maybe he’ll play brown sugar for the people of color that can find a job. May they live long and prosper. MAGA.

[Leaning Right]

> Why does Trump always close out his rallies with the Stones “You Can’t Always Get What You Want”? <

Trump is just giving Hillary some friendly advice.

[McGavin999]

He’s a deal maker and that’s his credo. In deals you can’t always get what you want, but you might get what you need.

[Mr. Mojo]

I thought it might be a dig at Hag voters.

[Wilderness Conservative]

He should play Some Girls. There’s one line that Mooch and Jarret should like.

[TChad]

These are the important lines:

But if you try sometimes you just might find
You get what you need

Trump's brand of conservatism is all about Americans working hard to get what they need.

That "work hard" philosophy has certainly paid off for him. It does not always succeed -- he has gone bankrupt -- but he just dusted himself and went back to work.

[M. Thatcher]

I always thought it was a message to NeverTrumpers:

"I might not be what you want, but I'm what you need (even if you don't know it yet)."

[Baynative]

It began when he did well in early primaries and the republican field started shrinking. The media took note and with the help of establishment never trumpers they began bombarding the public with negative stories about Trump's abrasive character, his entertainment background, his divorces and philandering and, of course the access Hollywood video.

That's when the full refrain of not getting what you want, but what you need became relevant and a mainstay of his giant rallies.

He first used teh Stone's song "Start Me Up" after winning the Ohio primary. The Stones responded by saying he did so without permission and he could not use their music. But being the businessman he is, he simply paid the ASCAP royalty lease like radio stations must do and came back at them by playing "You Can't Always Get What You Want" at his giant rally a couple weeks later in the hanger at the Phoenix airport.
