For Shit’s Sakes! Trump is still ending and beginning

his stump events with the Stones “You Can’t Always Get What You Want”.

I Just listened to the song once again after the Speech ended...

I thought the Stones demanded Trump’s Campaign to Cease and Desist with this song..

Kind of pisses me off that the Stones are not following through on this issue..

“You Can’t Always Get What You Want,” was written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards and was released on the band’s album “Let It Bleed.”

On Thursday, George Harrison’s estate also denounced Trump for playing the Beatle’s song “Here Comes the Sun” while introducing Ivanka Trump at the convention.
