    I love that with almost every song he tries to use lately the artist slaps him down!

    We will also learn who the greedy artists are who first push back and then retract as they notice backlash and decreased income from the Magoo army.

      I read somewhere that he used Dolly’s “Jolene” yesterday.

      Would love that fallout if true…

        Dolly’s said she keeps herself out of politics unless she’s directly attacked, like when that columnist for the Federalist slagged her for not being homophobic despite being a Christian.

          But wouldn’t using her music for political campaigns go against the keeping out of politics?
          I wouldn’t be surprised if she not exactly speaking out against trump but speaking out about a political campaign using her music.

      Funny how conservatives hate art and artists and anyone on the left, and yet boy, they sure do like the art the left makes.

      Wonder why they won’t stick to kid rock and country shit.
