The Trump campaign playing Rage Against the Machine is just so mindbogglingly dumb, it defies comprehension.

the worst part isn't even how paralyzingly stupid they are, it's that they're proud of that fact

Fucking Paul Ryan cited RATM as his favorite band. These are not smart people.

Not self-aware enough to understand they're the machine the songs rage against.

Well, dumbass fucks also need representation. Too bad it's like ~50% of the US.

Have they actually used it or did Rage just say "don't use our shit"?

I mean, "Some of those that work forces are the same that burn crosses" is probably a good thing from their point of view...

And the orange man's campaign to RATM when told not to play their music: fuck you, I won't do what you tell me.
