Ignoring Leftist Outrage, Village People Say Trump Welcome to Play Their Music at Rallies
Breitbart.com ^ | 2/24/2020 | Ben Kew

Iconic disco group Village People issued a statement on Monday declaring that President Donald Trump is welcome to their music at his rallies after left-wing activists demanded the group ban him from using their music.

Village People’s classic song “Macho Man” played as Trump entered a raucous rally in Sardar Patel Stadium in Ahmedabad, India, on Monday. The president has also previously used the band’s iconic 1978 hit “Y.M.C.A” at various campaign events.

I guess we have some sane gay people in this country.

Those who don’t want their 401Ks redistributed to others, or Islamist sharia vigilantes tossing them from the roofs of buildings.

If they pay ASCAP fees, you can play their music wherever you want. That’s how it works.

Songs like “Happy Birthday” or “We Will Rock You!” are sung when people chose to sing them.

Until very recently, any time "happy birthday" was sung in a movie or on TV, royalties had to be paid to the 'owners' of the song. Their copyright was voided (I believe by the supreme Court) just a few years ago.

Copyright is pretty much eternal these days, far beyond any imaginings of the founders. "We Will Rock You!" will likely be under copyright until long after you and I are worm food.

From my observation.. President Trump has never had hate for anyone.. He Loves Everyone!! That is what we should strive for.. to be Christ-like. For many it is an innate quality. I Love people.. even though 98% of them piss me off sometimes.. but only temporarily 😇

“...I continue to be confused how they get up in the morning. Does their hate actually wake them up? What a miserable existence....”

Don’t let it bother you too much because they’re actually quite insane...totally insane if the entire truth were to be told. They close their eyes at night in hate and wake up in hate. It’s all they really know how to do. It’s their total existence...and, yes, a miserable existence indeed with the POTUS living inside their heads 24/7/365...rent free too! Whadda deal!
FWIW, in the old days, they were referred to/relegated to state mental institutions for the insane. BTW, there is NO known cure. They tried everything back in the old days: lobotomies, shock treatment therapies, etc. Nothing worked. It’s a chronic, debilitating, mental disease that gets worse and worse as time goes on. They’ll all turn violent eventually. We call them; “The Walking Democrats” around these parts and consider them as a type of zombie.

#4. Re Because Macho Man and Mayor Buttpete don’t mix, except, perhaps for the singer in cowboy chaps. Just observing.

I think Pete’s favorite cowboy show was “Rawhide”. Oh, did I say that? Not sorry!

THe Village Peoples’ song “In the Navy” was originally written with a future Obama’s Secy of the Navy in mind, Mabus (aka the Secy of the Queen’s Navy).

Alex Briley, the GI in the Village People, is the brother of the late Jonathan Briley.
Jonathan was eventually identified as the Falling Man in the horrifying, iconic photo from 9/11.
