MSNBC just showed a tRump rally clip and the Rolling Stones were

on the sound system...Sympathy For The Devil was playing. I wonder if any of his cult members noticed that fun fact.

1. Actually, if they played that it could have been a little insider sabotage

I mean otherwise they would have to be really stupid.

Either way is possible

[strangedaysindeed]

2. That song IS him!

3. Acura is running an ad with that as a background.

I love Acura's. I owned one for 16 years, but every time I see that ad on TV I ask myself, "Why would they think 'Sympathy for the Devil' would make me want to buy their car?"

4. They play it regularly. Bizarre.

5. The stones asked him to stop using their music

As Donald Trump sealed up the Republican nomination with a victory speech at the Trump Tower Tuesday night, the music as he exited the stage sent a message about his general election campaign: “Start Me Up.”

The Rolling Stones, who wrote the song, would prefer that he stop.

7. Mick and Keith need to say "Do NOT play any and ALL Stones songs!".

You have to be very specific with this group of immoral crooks. Telling tRump not to play one specific song means that he can play the rest of them apparently.

11. It's not up to them

They contracted licensing out through ASCAP, and they don't have any say in who pays the $50 event licensing fee to ASCAP to use anything in the catalog.

6. Trump tends to picks songs based on some lines without regard for deeper meaning.

Not surprising, he likely keyed in on “man of wealth and taste” and didn’t care about overall intent of song.
Similar to his use of O’Jays’ “For the Love of Money.” Keyed in on repetition of “money” and not on fact that song was based on love of money being the root of all evil.

[BigmanPigman]

8. That makes sense...He is so superficial

with everything in his life.

[Different Drummer]

9. They--like he--probably don't look for deeper meanings.

I would guess that some of them may not even know the title of the song as it's not mentioned in the lyrics.

10. "I shouted out who killed the Kennedys? When after all It was you and me."

Not exactly a Republican anthem. It implicates the 1% in the world’s ills. It further implicates everybody for letting horrible shit happen by indifference and passivity.
- - - - - -

Please allow me to introduce myself: I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long year; stole many man's soul and faith
I was 'round when Jesus Christ had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Pilate washed his hands and sealed his fate

Pleased to meet you -- hope you guess my name
But what's puzzling you is the nature of my game

Stuck around St. Petersburg when I saw it was a time for a change
Killed the czar and his ministers; Anastasia screamed in vain
I rode a tank, held a general's rank, when the blitzkrieg raged and the bodies stank

Pleased to meet you -- hope you guess my name, oh yeah
Ah, what's puzzling you is the nature of my game, oh yeah

I watched with glee while your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades for the gods they made
I shouted out "Who killed the Kennedys?"
When after all, it was you and me
Let me please introduce myself: I'm a man of wealth and taste
And I laid traps for troubadours who get killed before they reach Bombay

Pleased to meet you -- hope you guess my name, oh yeah
But what's puzzling you is the nature of my game, oh yeah
Get down, baby

Pleased to meet you -- hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what's confusing you is just the nature of my game

Just as every cop is a criminal
And all the sinners saints
As heads is tails, just call me Lucifer
'Cause I'm in need of some restraint
So if you meet me, have some courtesy
Have some sympathy and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse
Or I'll lay your soul to waste
Mmm, yeah

Pleased to meet you -- hope you guessed my name, mmm, yeah
But what's puzzling you is the nature of my game
Mmm, mean it, get down

Tell me baby, what's my name?
Tell me honey, can 'ya guess my name?
Tell me baby, what's my name?
I tell you one time, you're to blame

What's my name?
Tell me baby, what's my name?
Tell me sweetie, what's my name?

12. In typical GOP fashion, Gump pays no attention to the lyrics of these songs.

Remember "Born in the USA"? The song is a giant FU to warhawks like Reagan. He played it at his rallies anyway.

I'm waiting for Gump to play Denis Leary's "Asshole" because it had a catchy rhythm. It's just a matter of time.
