“I laughed, I thought that was brilliant. I just thought, ‘Good on you, Donald.’ Donald’s always been a fan of mine, and he’s been to my concerts many, many times. So, I mean, I’ve always been friendly toward him, and I thank him for his support. When he did that, I just thought it was hilarious. It made me laugh.”

– Elton John

My respect for him went out the window when he played at Rush Limbaugh's wedding.

Man's worth half a billion $US. Can live openly married to another man because a lot of people with a lot less fought for his and their right to do so.

Instead of using his megaphone to tell us how much he has gained, and how much we could lose, he says something nice about a man who would let him be jailed or worse if that would sell another trading card.

Well, at least this will free up some space on my C: drive.

Yep, that’s him off my Christmas card list and onto my shitlist.

When so many musicians have made a point that Trump may not use their music, this is pretty much a vote of support for Trump.

Elton lost it 2 decades ago.
