Is it just me or has anyone else noticed that Trump rallies

often open with the Stones' Sympathy for the Devil?

Then today with the MSNBC Shift (online programming) headline "Palin Joins Trump at rally" they open with the Stones' You can't always get what you want.

Any other songs out there that should be on the Trump rotation at rallies?

edit to add: They're now playing Memories I guess in honor of Palin's political career . . .

Barbara Streisand's song?

I flip channels the minute he or she comes on - so I'm not seeing it.

Well, first of all, I'd like to say fuck off, fuck off
(Fuck off, fuck off)
If you don't get it, why don't you go shove your head back up your ass
And don't waste my time I don't need your opinion, no
(Oh my God)

Subtle, eh?

Why would they want either of those songs associated with Trump?

Any ideas?

"Who let all of this riff raff into the room?"

Like when they escorted the Muslim woman out of the event and beat a black guy because they protested.
