These Trump voters, I get it now!

I was listening to some songs by my favorite band when I was a teen. Camper Van Beethoven. So there was this song about Reagan and nostalgia for that era. Like mike grandparents would have thought in 1949.

'Cause he's always living back in Dixon

Circa nineteen forty-nine

And we're all sitting at the fountain

At the five and dime

'Cause he's living in some B-movie

The lines they are so clearly drawn

In black and white life is so easy

And we're all coming along on this one

'Cause he's on a secret mission

Headquarters just radioed in

He left his baby at the dancehall

While the band plays on, some sweet song

And on a mission over China

The lady opens up her arms

The flowers bloom where you have placed them

And the lady smiles, just like mom

Angels' wings are icing over

McDonnell Douglas olive drab

They bear the names of our sweethearts

And the captain smiles, as we crash

'Cause in the mind of Ronald Reagan

Wheels they turn and gears they grind

Buildings collapse in slow motion

And trains collide, everything is fine

Everything is fine

Everything is fine

It makes perfect sense now. These white people in Michigan, when you could still get a good job at the car plant, have four kids, drive a station wagon to Disneyland once with them. The good stuff.  But boy, are they stupid. None of that is coming back. We can still fly to Disneyland or Disney World, but we have gun nuts, nuts of all sorts shooting people all over the place like that Orlando thing. And Los Angeles is full of homeless people if you go to Disneyland.
