Maybe/probably it was just the streamer, but what I was watching started playing Flight of the Valkyries at the end of the speech. That is super Nazi-ish.

Is Trump golfing on weekends greater than that already? It's only when you average Obama's out so far. Trump's golfed at his own golf club with the Japanese Prime minister. Informal settings outside Washington to entertain foreign leaders is no different than what other presidents have done. It dignitaries at ease.

Don't get me wrong. Your local classical music station is free to play Wagner, but at the end of a political rally it is 10/10 on the panic this is a Nazi scale.

"You can't always get what you want" is pretty good exit music for Drumpf. I think REM's "it's the end of the world as we know it" was played at one of his primary rallies though, and that's clearly even more appropriate.

Maybe Radiohead's "2+2=5" will get a chance at some point.

Ok, I guess it's just the Trumpkins being Nazis, which we already knew.

At one campaign stop in 2016, he (without permission ldo) used REM's "End of the World as We Know It." If the Wagner exit theme was really his/his people's call and not the streamer's, you can bet we'll get a bunch of 4D chess comments about it. More likely, the Trump team is a bunch of clueless idiots and thought "hey this is public domain and sounds epic as hell."

They were playing it before he came out of the plane too. Was pretty surreal/creepy.

lol you people. This was the streamer ffs. He had it on before the speech as well and there was no crowd noise. He put it on after the stream and the crowd noise died. They also started playing a different song when he was done at the event and the streamer cut straight to Flight.
