Aging Rocker Neil Young Releases Subversive Fourth of July Video

Crotchety old rock and roller Neil Young has released a new video to commemorate the Fourth of July but it’s hardly an ode to Old Glory, the Constitution, and traditional American values.

While “Children of Destiny” isn’t an overtly anti-Trump video, Young wears his political beliefs on his sleeve and sappy images of flag-waving kids are interspersed with footage of George Soros backed rallies like so-called “women’s march” on Washington as well as what appear to be color revolutions in foreign countries.

One of most sleazy and cynical of all political tricks is using children as a hook, it worked wonders for Mrs. Clinton right up until she lost the election last November.

It’s obvious what the Godfather of Grunge is selling and it isn’t an acceptance of the results of a legitimate election.

This will be quickly snapped up by the so-called Resistance as a protest song.

Old Neil has had his better days and it’s been a long time since he produced anything even remotely resembling a hit record, you’d probably have to go all the way back to the early 1990’s for that.

I was always a Neil Young fan – up to the point where it all started sounding the same – but outside of a few live albums, he has drifted into the same fog that other aging hippie rockers have by putting out the album after album of reheated crap and living off of their past laurels.

It is notable that Young and the POTUS had it out during the early days of his presidential run when the aging rocker demanded that then candidate Trump stop using his song “Rockin’ in the Free World” during campaign rallies.

The Donald was quick to respond to the aging Young by calling him out as a “hypocrite” for denouncing him after having shown up hat in hand to beg for money to finance his overpriced Pono music system – and he had photographic evidence too.

Trump also had a license agreement to use the music, Young quietly relented several months later.

He’ll get some love from the left and sell a few albums but the dude’s best days are in his rearview mirror.
