      @monkeefugg. 🍀This is a song that should be well known. I discovered it only a few minutes ago. I am unfamiliar with social media, but I hope someone who is will pass it around. The MAGA crowd won't pay it any attention, but the rest of us will have the words of a national hero to embrace.

      I found about it in 2016 when it was discovered. Forgot the man's name but he'd been going through the archives of Woody's work for 10 years while writing a book about him. None of this was a surprise- about Fred...+ if you might wonder why it took so long to find the song.
      Woody wrote 10,000+ songs.
      This song wasn't ever recorded. it was written just before he was diagnosed with Huntington's disease.
      Such a devastating disease that destroys the body and the mind. When his mother had it she was put in a mental institution as little was known of it then. ❤️

      Racism comes in many forms and the popular type of the day is systemic, it's not really in vogue to speak about your racism openly. Even if these people truly didn't think they were racist that doesn't mean they don't implicitly hold racist views as basically everyone in America does (America is a racist culture) or they don't support the racist status quo. Functionally, as a Republican, Donald Trump is a racist ​@@ChristopherBarbaree

      Trump is not really rich anymore... he owes more in debts and back taxes than his actual net worth. After Trump gets out of office, and the IRS comes knocking on his door.. they'll seize whatever few assets he has left. But he won't need it anyhow because there's a high probability he'll eventually be in Federal Prison . After he's out of office.. he could be facing numerous charges including: bankruptcy fraud, tax evasion, 19 alleged sexual assault charges, & some alleged bribery charges of accepting bribes for presidential pardons. So Trump might end up like Cosby.. doing time in prison at an old age.

    Lyrics to this song.....I suppose that Old Man Trump knows just how much racial hate
    He stirred up in that bloodpot of human hearts
    When he drawed that color line
    Here at his Beach Haven family project
    Beach Haven ain't my home!
    No, I just can't pay this rent!
    My money's down the drain,
    And my soul is badly bent!
    Beach Haven is Trump’s Tower
    Where no black folks come to roam,
    No, no, Old Man Trump!
    Old Beach Haven ain't my home!
    I'm calling out my welcome to you and your man both
    Welcoming you here to Beach Haven
    To love in any way you please and to have some kind of a decent place
    To have your kids raised up in.
    Beach Haven ain't my home!
    No, I just can't pay this rent!
    My money's down the drain,
    And my soul is badly bent!
    Beach Haven is Trump’s Tower
    Where no black folks come to roam,
    No, no, Old Man Trump!
    Old Beach Haven ain't my home!

      Woodie Guthrie wrote this song when he saw Fred Trump did not rent to blacks and the racial injustice was unfair to Woodie. He also wrote a song about immigrants that were being imported and deported. The plane crashed in Dos Gatos canyon. The deportees were buried in a mass grave with no names, just Deportees. 1948 plane crash. The song is 'Deportees' Johnny Cash sang the song with Johnny Rodriguez, on the 'Highway man' album.

      The song “Old Man Trump” was written by Woodie Guthrie in 1954. The hand written lyrics were unearthed from the archives at The Woody Guthrie museum in 2016 by professor of American literature and culture at the University of Central Lancashire, William Kaufman. The song was indeed written about Guthrie landlord at the time, Fred Trump.
