RIP, David Lynch. Truly one of the great weirdoes in film and television history.

BREAKING: Country music star Carrie Underwood will perform at Trump's inauguration despite him being a convicted felon, a blatant fascist and racist, and a legally adjudicated sexual predator.

Does this change your opinion of her?

i don't think liberals gave up on country music. most of the musicians/fans of the music that fits the genre called "country/western" 30 years ago aren't right wing. mainstream "country" is just a melange of popular genres with some superficial "country" signifiers and reactionary lyrics
Yes, though I'd also argue that giving up entire genres of music to right-wingers--genres of music with very deep roots in working class culture--is not a good political move.

And in fact, there's tons of country out there with great politics. It's just not on the radio.
Yes! Hip Hop’s deep history of social commentary and political messaging makes it a natural fit for this generation of progressive movement. Especially given the rise of modern mainstream country music’s social narrative, it’s a good juxtaposition.
