Tom Morello schließt sich Bruce Springsteen und Harvard in Trump in Trump an: „Bruce geht nach Trump, weil Bruce, sein ganzes Leben, von er um Wahrheit, Gerechtigkeit, Demokratie und Gleichheit geht.“

Excerpt:

When Rage Against the Machine‘s Tom Morello took the stage at Boston Calling Music Festival on Sunday evening, his solo set featured a pointed message. On the screen behind him, a graphic compiled nearly two dozen buttons that read and spelled out “Fuck Trump,” labeled the president a “tyrant,” and referred to him as the “Hater in Chief.” Addressing the crowd, Morello said: “Welcome, brothers and sisters, to the last big event before they throw us all in jail.”

Morello used the performance to join the legion of musicians backing Bruce Springsteen in the musician’s recent standoff with Donald Trump. “Bruce is going after Trump because Bruce, his whole life, he’s been about truth, justice, democracy, equality,” Morello said. “And Trump is mad at him because Bruce draws a bigger audience. Fuck that guy.” The guitarist performed a cover of Springsteen’s “The Ghost of Tom Joad” in solidarity.

Elsewhere in his set, Morello performed Woody Guthrie’s “This Land Is Your Land,” a song he learned in the third grade only to later discover that essential lyrics were removed from the version he knew. “It’s a beautiful song, but they censored out all the verses that explain what the song is really about,” Morello said. “This is a revolutionary anthem. Woody Guthrie knew that music could be … an uplifting, unifying, transcendent thing; a defensive shield, and a weapon for change. Authoritarians and billionaires think this country belongs to them. Woody Guthrie knew that this land is yours.”

No one is “joining Harvard” those fat cats are on their own.

I hope Trump knows who “The Machine” is now.
