Don't bother clicking the link and giving Rolling Stone the hits. Billy Joel mentions Trump in a casual aside, and then refuses to alienate either half of his audience. Well done, Billy!

“I try to stay out of politics.”

So to stay out of politics the first thing he says in an interview when asked a non-political question is political.

He’s a no talent hack.

We didn't start the fire.

His rapid fire staccato delivery is a masterpiece. (imho)

The weird shit was electing a community organizer with no real qualifications for President back in 2008.

Trump actually achieved something with his life before high office.

“and Finally Becoming Cool”

So he’s hip among the Justin Beiber, Taylor Swift crowd?

He’s hip among the Flaming Lips, Lucero festival crowd?

He’s hip among the Childish Gambino and Die Antwoord rap crowd?

Or he’s hip among the “man I sure miss going to Tom Petty concerts” crowd?

I saw Billy Joel last year, here in Indianapolis...it was a terrific show, and I’m glad I saw him. Whatever his personal politics are, and I’m certain that he has some, he has always struck me as the type that would never shove it in anyone’s face. He’s an entertainer at heart, and knows that alienating half your audience is not good for business.
