[Wounded Bear]

hour and a half of empty promises, then that song?

[Flatpicker]

1. Fitting

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

2. And did they get permission to use the song?

Bet they didn't. But if they were going to use something by the Stones it should have been "Ain't Too Proud To Beg."

5. Didn't the Rolling Stones already have a past issue with him using their music?

May 5!

(CNN) Donald Trump can't always get what he wants.

The Rolling Stones are the latest band to ask Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, to stop playing their music during his campaign events and rallies.
"The Rolling Stones have never given permission to the Trump campaign to use their songs and have requested that they cease all use immediately," the British band's publicist, Fran Curtis, told CNN in a statement Thursday.
Trump, asked about it on CNBC Thursday, said: "I have no problem with that. I like Mick Jagger."

13. Not "presumptive" any more.

Repubs bought the bridge.

[mcar]

3. OMG! I just shouted that to SO

WTF?

[C_U_L8R]

4. Yeah... Like a balloon drop

Or a functional convention.

Trumped looked so pissed on stage at the end.
Body language like he was gonna kill someone
And he was clearly muttering unhappy things
to his kids.

9. Il Duce

[question everything]

16. Indeed. We did not watch it, were waiting with Bill Maher for him to finish

but we switched back and forth, on mute, and my spouse mentioned he much he looked like Mussolini. For me, he always reminds me of the George C. Scott character in Dr. Strangelove.

[Wounded Bear]

19. Yep, pretty much...

[jpak]

6. Melania wrote it first!

[Momgonepostal]

7. Hilarious!

Who picked that?

[Johonny]

10. You'd think the Stones Sweet Neocon would have been a better choice.

11. Preceded by "All Right Now" by Bad Company... weird choice

There she stood in the street
Smilin' from her head to her feet;

I said, "Hey, what is this?
Now baby, maybe,
Maybe she's in need of a kiss."

I said, "Hey, what's your name?
Maybe we can see things the same."

"Now don't you wait, or hesitate
Let's move before they raise the parking rate."

Oh
All right now, baby, it's a-all right now.
All right now, baby, it's a-all right now.

I took her home to my place,
Watchin' every move on her face;

She said, "Look, what's your game, baby?
Are you tryna' put me to shame?"

I said "Slow, don't go so fast, don't you think that love can last?"

She said, "Love, Lord above,
Now you're tryna' trick me in love."

All right now, baby, it's a-all right now.
All right now, baby, it's a-all right now.

Whoo, oh yeah
All right…

14. Not so strange

At his age, those are the songs of his early adulthood. He picked the songs he thought were "cool" with no thought of the message. Not a real deep thinker....

[napkinz]

17. those songs came out in 1969 and 1970 ... if they were songs of his early adulthood, wouldn't he

have heard them in Vietnam?

Oh, wait ...

[REP]

15. A song about scoring heroin - good clean family values

Using a song without permission - making America great again!

[Ilsa]

18. We need a thread of song suggestions for the DNC convention.

Lots of upbeat, happy music.
