As long as Trump pays ASCAP or BMI there’s not much Neil “hasn’t done anything in 30 years” Young can do about it.

And that is, as they say, THAT.

I watch all the Trump Rallies. I only heard Rockin in the Free World one time and it only played for 30 seconds or so.

Well he has done something with csn on occasion. We made it through 3 songs at MGM in Vegas a few years back. csny sounded like crap and the politics were the usual absurd BS. Good thing the tickets were free.

“the rioting has been peaceful.”

First of all, by definition, a riot is not peaceful.

Second of all, has this guy spoken to any small business owners who have seen their entire investments go up in flames? Or the people who are too petrified to go out of their house and walk down the street to buy some milk? And what about the three police officers who were blinded by some yahoo using a laser gun, apparently?

And the list goes on. And on. And on again.

You can add ‘comic’ Jim Carey and movie director (Sausage Party) Seth Rogen to that list.

That's kind of the whole point. Take a bitter anti-USA song and turn it into a conservative anthem. This enrages the original artists!

Trump really knows how to push the buttons of these sanctimonious rockers and I love it.

Sure. Big bad Trump sent his stormtroopers to attack those innocent, peaceful “George Floyd” protesters who weren’t bothering anybody, didn’t burn buildings, didn’t kill anybody, didn’t steal, didn’t rape.

Only in the USA.

“Has anybody associated with the campaign bothered to listen to the lyrics? It’s the exact opposite of rah rah.”

99% of people never listen to anything but the chorus.

“Born in the USA” wasn’t a patriotic song either, but Reagan used it anyway, and nobody cared, because nobody listened to the verses (except some music nerds).

Attack Trump on his own field of play. Do it.

I don’t think Young is serious. It’s just verbal bravado.

Very much so. I think people don’t listen past the hook. “’Born in the USA’ yeah!” “’Rockin in the freeworld’ you bet!”. Umm guys... Especially in this internet age. One can be excused for maybe not hearing the song right, especially with Bruce’s style of singing, but you can look up the lyrics, one easy google search.

“hasn’t done anything in 30 45 years”

Whiny Guy from Canada hasn't done anything since before the helicopters went off the decks in the South China Sea after bringing people back from Saigon
