Trump & Elton John

[noretreatnosurrender]

I was watching the Clyburn endorsement on MSNBC. When it was over I came to DU but left the MSNBC thread up even though there was no live coverage being broadcast. A few minutes ago the live broadcast started again. Evidently Donald Trump is getting ready to speak. The weird thing was that while they wait for Trump they are playing Elton John's song Tiny Dancer to the crowd. Elton John music for Trump? How bizarre. I bet Elton John would be appalled. Now they are playing opera. Can you imagine a crowd of right wingers in SC listening to opera.

This is entertaining as hell listening to the music and picturing the crowd.

We have the Rolling Stones playing - You Can't Always Get What You Want

I hope there is a long delay before Trump comes out so I can listen to the music.

1. Elton John performed at Rush Limbaugh's last wedding.

He probably just wants his royalties from Trump.

They are back to Elton John now after the Stones.

4. Elton John performs private concerts for virtually anyone willing to donate a million or more to

The Elton John AIDS Foundation

EJAF is one of the world’s largest HIV grant-makers. With offices in New York and London, EJAF has raised more than $349 million for the treatment and prevention of HIV/AIDS since its inception in 1992. In the Americas, we invest approximately $7 million in more than 120 organizations every year, with half of this focused on the Southern U.S. and the Caribbean.

EJAF is unique among funders in being pioneering, efficient, and unafraid of tackling the most difficult issues related to HIV.


So that's where Rush's money went. Not that it matters of course. It sure did matter back in '92 though.
