Republicans blast Pearl Jam poster of burning White House

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

HELENA, Mont. (AP) — Republicans are condemning a poster by Pearl Jam that shows the White House in flames and a bald eagle pecking at a skeleton they say is meant to depict President Donald Trump.

The National Republican Senate Committee and Montana Senate candidate Matt Rosendale both compared the poster to the now-infamous photo of the comedian Kathy Griffin holding a fake decapitated Trump head.

The band was traveling Wednesday and not immediately available to confirm whether the skeleton is meant to be Trump.

The rock group's Twitter account says the official poster from the rock group's Missoula, Montana, show Monday is a collaboration between bassist Jeff Ament and artist Bobby Brown.

1. That's shocking...

There's still a Pearl Jam?

[Aristus]

3. Yes. And the benefit they put on recently in Seattle raised $11 million for the city's homeless

community.

Lead singer Eddie Vedder is a tireless champion of progressive causes.

[MontanaMama]

14. Yup.

They played to a sold out stadium here in Missoula, MT two nights ago as a benefit for Senator Jon Tester. Lots of GOTV talk during the concert too.

2. But all those "kill libruls" paraphernalia just gets a snicker from repugs.

I hope Pearl Jam keeps it up and they do more. They can thank the offended for the publicity.

7. At the 2012 DNC, I saw Republican protesters

driving around in a flatbed truck with a dead Obama swinging from a noose. So, Cult45 can fuck right off. Don't want to hear it.

8. One of the best bands of all time did pretty much the same thing 35 years ago...

A truly awesome band...

[FSogol]

13. Agreed. Great band. n/t

10. Go Pearl Jam

Gotta love the fake fox news testimonials from outraged "fans"... yeah right.

[Solly Mack]

11. Typical. Attack art but when Jeremy speaks, republicans circle the wagon to protect the metal and

the cotton-linen blend they receive for doing so.

Translation: They get all bent out of shape over a poster but defend guns and the money they get from the NRA when there is a school shooting.

In case anyone needed it.

[lunasun]

17. +1

[SamKnause]

15. Fuck off and die Republicans.

No one cares what you think, or what offends you.

Your existence offends me.

You are a waste of space, air, food and water.

Do the planet a favor and fuck off and die !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[maveric]

16. Fuck them.

[vercetti2021]

18. Pearl Jam has always been political

Fake fans can go be fake Americans. Oh wait...

[left-of-center2012]

19. love the poster ... hate pearl jam, though

[Takket]

drumpf is running the country into the ground, babies are in cages, and they are playing the outrage culture war card over a band's poster. fuck these people
