I'm speechless. Speechless.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

They played “Live and Let Die” when the Madman toured the Honeywell factory.

“Live and Let Die.”

“Live and Let Die.”

I mean...holy shit.

1. I'd rather just stay home than trust a Honeywell mask.

They don't seem to understand what the word "contaminated" means.

[Iliyah]

2. Who played it?

[Tommy_Carcetti]

3. I think it's part of Trump's normal rally playlist.

Why anyone would think it is any way appropriate under this context though...

[Mike 03]

11. Oh shit... I thought you meant the Honeywell factory sound system was

playing it, like to troll him.

God help us.

[dewsgirl]

14. Holy shit, I too thought it was the workers of Honeywell.😳

[smirkymonkey]

16. That's the big question. If the plant workers played it to troll him, it's hilarious.

However if someone on Trump's staff purposely chose to play this song to troll the people in this plant and the rest of us, it's absolutely evil.

[Brother Buzz]

36. I'm guessing his beef with Guns N' Roses trump's common sense

Axl Rose, a frequent critic of the Trump administration, turned to Twitter Saturday to explain why Guns N’ Roses‘ music has played at the president’s recent rallies.

“Just so ya know… GNR like a lot of artists opposed to the unauthorized use of their music at political events has formally requested r music not b used at Trump rallies or Trump associated events,” Rose tweeted.

“Unfortunately the Trump campaign is using loopholes in the various venues’ blanket performance licenses which were not intended for such craven political purposes, without the songwriters’ consent.”

[Flaleftist]

23. Good question.

It is possible that the plant plays music for their workers and that song just happened to be playing maybe from Pandora or someone's Spotify playlist. But I wouldn't put it past the Trump team to do this intentionally.

[Sanity Claws]

4. I'd like to know who selected and played the music

I wonder if it was not so subtle signal from the workers.

[RANDYWILDMAN]

5. Where is your mask....

you could be giving Covid to others. Loser and his stupid followers...

[Trumpocalypse]

6. Trump is one cat away

from being a Bond villain.

[ChazInAz]

19. Except he hates cats.

Figures.

[lame54]

7. Somebody there has a sense of humor...

And hates Trump
Somebody is getting fired

[Baked Potato]

8. It's on purpose...

From a New Yorker piece in 2016, explaining how Trump’s rally music is selected. Basically, the more inappropriate, the better.

“Donald Trump has a rule at his rallies: for the fifty minutes before he takes the stage, the only music that can be played is from a set list that he put together. The list shows a sensitive side, mixing in Elton John’s “Tiny Dancer” and music from “Cats” and “The Phantom of the Opera.” But it’s heavy on the Rolling Stones—“Sympathy for the Devil,” “You Can’t Always Get What You Want,” and the famously impolitic “Brown Sugar.” The young volunteer in charge of music for one rally sent me the full Trump-curated playlist and asked for requests. “Remember,” he said, “the more inappropriate for a political event, the better.”

[whopis01]

21. Absolutely it is. It plays right to his base. n/t

[Marie Marie]

28. He plays the Stones and doesn't include Under My Thumb?

He must love the lyrics to that song.

[Baked Potato]

31. Yeah, I'm sure he does like those lyrics.

I wish he would leave Tiny Dancer alone, I love that freakin’ song!

[sop]

9. Everything about Trump is inappropriate.

[tulipsandroses]

10. This is like Malignant's I don't care, do you jacket

Sigh,

[tanyev]

12. I'm just so sick and tired of this crass ignorant buffoon.

[Alex4Martinez]

13. I wish it was real, I don't think it is. I think Trump would make it stop.

I don't think he'd let anything interfere with his projection of misinformation.

If it happened, though, I'm loving it!

[dewsgirl]

15. Aaron Rupar would never have tweeted it if it wasn't.

Very solid fact checker/reporter.

[Alex4Martinez]

20. Zach is the originator, I think it might be real after all! Part of Trump's Rally Playlist

25. Isn't the House of the Rising Sun about a prostitute?

Maybe he plays that in honor of his wife.

[Baked Potato]

34. Maybe, and I think Trump's grand pappy ran brothels...

[BusyBeingBest]

40. Well, doesn't look like Honeywell

does any sort of sanitation or quality control in their production line. Bins of masks getting handled and breathed on by Donnie Destructo and everyone else. Nice.

[logosoco]

17. wow! and i thought not wearing a mask, at a mask factory, during a pandemic

when people are encouraged to wear masks, would be the thing about this story.

(why is he so afraid to wear a mask? his hair? will that orange stuff rub off on it?)

[Fiendish Thingy]

18. Dark humour for Dark Times

Sounded like Macca’s live version.

[OneBro]

22. Notice that the guy toyed with the mask . . .

. . . with his grubby hands, then put it right back in the bin with the clean ones. So much for quality control.

[Haggis for Breakfast]

24. WHY did they need music in the background at all ?

[cwydro]

33. Yeah, that seems a bit odd.

[abqtommy]

26. I can guarantee that Paul McCartney is NOT amused!

[subterranean]

27. It was the Guns N' Roses version they were playing.

Axl Rose has complained about the band's music being played at Trump rallies before, so I suspect he was not amused any more than Sir Paul would be.

[abqtommy]

38. Well, Guns N' Roses had to license it from Paul too... tricky business, music law...

[Stuart G]

29. 3 M also makes maskes..Minnosota, Mining & Manufacturing..(same company that makes Scotch Tape)

[cwydro]

30. Whoa.

I don’t know if that’s funny...or what.

[FightingIrish]

32. If you don't realize by now that

Tens of thousands of Americans dying unnecessarily is not an unintended consequence.
Playing this is a wink and a nod to the cult who thinks Trump’s genocide will only kill Trump’s enemies. Ever the showman, Trump wouldn’t overlook the irony of the selection. He really wants to kill most of us.

[Goodheart]

42. I'm not sure it's that. I think it was a sarcastic attack upon trump by the workers.

[Joinfortmill]

35. 👍

[BootinUp]

37. It's like the most amazingly stupid thing from History.

But it’s not quite history.

[Talitha]

39. Rachel covered this tonight.

The music was blasting on the factory's speakers
and truly appeared to be a personal dig on Wuhan Don.

[Glimmer of Hope]

45. I love it.

[WhiskeyWulf]

41. According to Rolling Stone, workers played it.

[Blue Owl]

43. The "let die" part was pretty cool though

[AnotherMother4Peace]

44. "Live & Let Die" sums up trump's m.o. He's not hiding it. The background song is on purpose. nt
