That's such a weird choice. Isn't he basically everything the song ridicules?
He's a boomer, he probably just associates it with Vietnam war movies and cool manly soldiers in helicopter, like all burgerreich boomers he thinks they are glorifying the war
lyrics don't have meaning if you don't listen to them
and surprisingly most people don't
people are still surprised when you tell them pumped up kicks is about school shootings
When did Rage Against The Machine get so political??
Peacefully Protest Against the Machine
...what? But that's obvious???
Oh my god
Most Americans have no media literacy so it makes sense
Maybe he is gloating?
The video was made by some chud as the bombings happened, I'm guessing a Trump staffer saw it, downloaded it and reposted it.
This is true that the video was made by a Trump fan. Trump reposts a lot of bullshit videos that he finds from fans. He's posted a number of fan-made ai slop videos, including one which claimed that Trump invented magical healing 'medbeds'.
However, Trump has played the song at most of his campaign rallies. I've watched dozens of Trump rallies. Another frequently played song was 'YMCA' by The Village People.
Here's an article from 2020 where the founding member of CCR comments on Trump's frequent usage of 'Fortunate Son' at his campaign rallies.
