I once heard Don McLean interviewed. When asked "What does American Pie all mean? He replied, "It means that I don't have to work another day in my life."

I'm not surprised, the playtime of the song is about 50 years, give or take.

That's what we need more of, more of eye smudge, smoke screens, just show us celebrities, politicians, how they're living and we're slaving away. 75 and 27....true love right there, prostitution at its finest.

[Lousiale]

His girlfriend dares not to kiss him on the lips 1🤢🤮

[citizeneveryman]

The age gap between those two not suspicious to anyone? These famous type sure do LIKE EM YOUNG

[BoogieBoogieAvenue]

If he wasn't Sorta famous and had no money he wouldn't have a 27 year old Gold digging girlfriend. He's a creep.

Interrupt Biden with Questions during his Press Spiel. Don't let him get away answering ZERO questions. Also throws off his teleprompter timing!
