Let's all get on board with the idea that the US does not have a president; it has an occupier. Ignoring the criminal Court of Koch coup, once Trump rejected the Constitution, he is no longer a president.

The last line of this says it all. He never shows any kind of kindness. EVERYTHING this 💩does is transactional. If it doesn’t benefit HIM the MOST then it’s not worth it to HIM. It’s EXHAUSTING.

Dave is one of the good guys- he has not wavered as a human of a "good soul" his entire life. Nobody is perfect, but what a gift. Now I am gonna have to go find that show and listen to it. :-) A family man rooted in the Pacific Northwest.

Felon, call him felon.....or criminal, pedophile, rapist, corrupt POS, Shitler..... NEVER call him president, he is NOT one, will NEVER be one..... Scumbags (felon) should never be given ANY respect or titles they never deserve.....!

Matthews also reportedly stated "hammity jing jong ah bap du bae"

Been to 3 of his concerts and that was 15-20 years ago so seriously before all the political stuff. Mad respect! So proud of this guy!

It's every damn day that POS stirs the pot...never ending horseshit. Remember when he picked fights with the POPE? The Pope. It is tiring and exhausting.

I love me some Dave. And of course DMB 😜 My favorite all time band.

Dave Matthews bought a winery across the road from Trump Vineyard in Virginia to prevent him from obtaining the land.

We all are Dave. The whole fuckin world.

More than 11 years of being tired from this nonsense that the USA can’t avoid or ignore. When DJT was on every tabloid cover in NYC & celebrity gossip shows. or fair housing violations, bankruptcies, adulterous behavior or Apprentice crap, we could basically ignore him & watch network or cable news

I love him. I love Dave Matthews and his 🎶music 🎶.
-
I saw him in Seattle in 2003 or 04 it was super fun. People hit different at a Dave Mathews show 💯
-
Recommend people check out the song he was playing, too ("Peace on Earth")
-
Let that be the lead-in to his next single and that’s an instant billboard #1 right there
-
Him and fucking everyone else in the country including news stations. At least maybe just maybe the idiot will just keep using his own little propaganda platform and leave the rest of us alone until November
