The exhaustingly long history of art-averse political figures missing the point of musical expression entirely continues in 2020 with the Trump campaign’s use of the Panic! at the Disco hit “High Hopes.” In case you missed it, and hopefully you did, the Trump team used the 2018 Pray for the Wicked single at a recent gathering of dumbfucks […]
