None of this matters if everyone sits at home, thinking a win is a guarantee.Learn from the lessons of 2016.

Factual, eloquently spoken reporting. Rare and refreshing.

You left out the best of all, Mick Jagger, told Trump he couldn't use any Stones song.

I used to be a mysogynist and believed a woman cant lead a man, but a woman led and raised me (my mother). And she did a great job. Let's see what a woman can do in the top spot we've had 46 men, I'm cool with a change. KAMALA, you go gurl!!

If Taylor Swift performs at the DNC Trump will go out of his mind. I hope it happens.

Music comes from the soul. Drumpf has no soul. No heart. No love. No nothing.

Also Trump campaign didn't even try to get permission or licence the songs. Just taking what's not theirs, the MAGA GOP.

Old Bonespurs is totally out of touch with the real world. He's amazed when people don't bow down to him because he inherited a fortune.

Love it that a lot of famous women are coming out to support Harris because Trump is so dreadful about women, so good on these women

[wavertone]

are we really shocked that trump doesn't ask for permission to use, take, grab, what doesn't belong to him.

[botspot]

Well done the Hayes family and all other musicians, sue the man.

[rob-time]

All of this rejection of "Trump" is the absolute worst thing possible in his eyes because it is world-wide, public humiliation and that is something that his ego just can't tolerate, and he can't stop or control it, but he deserves it.

Pause from politics - Joy looks luminous💕 Carry on

Jason Johnson and Joy Reid are great together, I could watch you two all day.

Several of the mentioned artists, Leonard Cohen, Nickleback and Celine Dion, are Canadian. We do enjoy poking fun at Americans for little things but we don't want to see you in a terrible crisis. We like it when your a bit too happy, a bit too loud and a bit too proud. We don't want you sad and miserable. You're our neighbours. Your culture bleeds across our border. When you succeed we do better too. That's why we can't understand Trump as a choice. He's not like you. He's not a reflection of your best selves. Get out there and show us, you are, who you told us you are! You're the land of the free, the home of the brave, you're number one, you're the leader of the free world! Act like it.

This tough love speech brought to you by a Canadian for Harris.

He's the darkness, she's the light. Go toward the light.🕊🕊🕊

The People will speak in November, WE ARE NOT GOING BACK 💙💙💙🇺🇸💙💙💙

Musicians should have the right to say how and where their song is used.
