In Memory of Elizabeth Reed" is the first song In the playlist I use when going out for a run.

This is just embarrassing and low rent.
We have US service people being killed and illegals flooding across our southern border, but Trump’s most visible surrogates are focused on a popstar and their “Pentagon op” fantasy grift.

Considering these allegations are contained in a story from Rolling Stone, I'd take the report with a grain of salt.

Lazy reporting:

... Trump has also privately claimed that he is “more popular” than Swift is and that he has more committed fans than she does, a person close to Trump and another source with knowledge of the matter tell Rolling Stone. ...

I don't have a radio in the house -- FM or AM. Nothing at all.

I do listen to a couple of FM stations in the car once in a while, but they're both classical stations (nothing else, that's all they play).

Sitting at the Mac (as in "right now"), I have the iTunes streaming radio player on, listening to "Cinemix". It's either that or "organmagic.com".

You don't need iTunes to try Cinemix:

If you've never heard it, it's worth a listen.

It's on streaming tv, as well.

Trump would be wise to steer clear of going after Swift.  But I bet he doesn't have the ability to do so.

He should just ignore her very existence. Can he? Yeah, I doubt it.

He can't help himself.

Poll worth a bucket of warm spit.   That 18% would likely vote Democrat regardless.

I don't think I've ever heard one of her songs.  Thankfully....

She got her start in bubble-gum country pop. I would be very surprised if you knew none of her songs.
Now, since then she has moved on to pop/rock proper... And I ain't paid mind to her in maybe a decade or two.

I have a feeling those guys - however many hundreds of them there are - have some real stories to tell.

This is listed on the internet as her 'greatest hit'.
Teenage pablum. Teenage girl fantasies. I am way too old for this kind of cookie cutter music.

Actually, I like this song. Maybe it’s the little girl in me, but it’s not much different than the bubblegum music I listened to when I was much younger.
