Deposing the rightful government of the US by means of voting them out of office sure sounds like an insurrection to me. /s

As I’ve remarked elsewhere, Trump playing all that music is **Donald and Donal’s Infinite Playlist**

His mosrt recent includes:

> [@](#):
>
> Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah” and Franz Schubert’s “Ave Maria,” along with various hits by Sinead O’Connor, Elvis Presley, Guns N’ Roses and the Village People.

> **[Trump's Campaign Goes Off The Rails With 3 Weeks Until The Election](https://www.huffpost.com/entry/donald-trump-campaign-off-the-rails_n_670eeb78e4b072cc9eb4a784)**
>
> From on-stage singalongs to rallies in states he'll never win — what's going on with Donald Trump's campaign?

A more compete playlist, compiled from songs played at his ralies, is given here:

His top three songs (based on the image) are by gay or bisexual performers? That’s interesting on several levels.

Once they’ve been relocated to Trump’s detention camps, they’ll be able to produce even MORE wonderful music! In between sessions of breaking up rocks with pickaxes, of course.

They were just commenting on his love for the Village People’s “YMCA” on Rachel Maddow’s show last night.

Why? It’s easy to see why a barely-veiled paean to no-strings-attached gay sex with multiple partners would resonate with Republican crowds.

The clip I saw, he wasn’t even trying to do the letter dance, and seemed completely oblivious that the dance existed while others nearby tried miming it to him.

If cartoons and Three Stooges shorts have taught us anything, it’s that prisoners use sledgehammers to break up the rocks.

But _have_ the Three Stooges shorts taught us anything??? If they had, surely _all_ voters would have recognized Trump’s resemblance to many of the Stooges nemeses, and therefore rejected him decisively.

I just listened to Fortunate Son driving back to the office from a site visit. That song rocks. The lyrics are blatantly obvious in their meaning.

It fucking cracked me up whem W used it at his rallies. That Donald uses it at his rallies is just too much. The irony is obscene.

What stupid world full of stupid ficking people.

Born in the USA (Springsteen) is another one the GOP likes to use… Well I guess Reagan used it.

I guess the one thing I wonder is - has Trump ever actually listened to music? Or is somebody in his campaign trolling him.

Trump: “Play fun upbeat music”  
Sound crew : “OK. (hahahahahh)”

Trump dances like the guy in _Airplane!_ when the jukebox starts playing “Stayin’ Alive”.

Truffle hunting pigs use smell to find their target. I’m given to understand the melon felon has a lot of targets and smells a lot.

I was thinking about jumping in about anosmic pigs but then thought it may have been a deliberate attempt at the sort of total cognitive dissonance Trump must constantly experience.
