No one thinks the Stones are Trump supporters. At the end of the day, there are far bigger things to worry about than whether a politician plays your song at a rally.

These are people who believe in their right to a life of excess and abandon being in your face. They are not moral conservatives, they just want to protect their wealth and think this is their best path.

I think I read somewhere that Joe Perry said he was an "old school republican" but is skeptical about their then current affairs. I think this may have been even before Trump.
Yep, pretty much.Quote

The Stones have good lawyers.
Trump paid the normal licensing fees in order to use YCAGWYW and the other songs he uses, as per normal procedure.
That is why artists can complain, and make it seem like they object, but can't do anything.
You do know that the promoter of those shows was Donald Trump?Quote

I was at the first and third shows, not the PPV.
I have a lot of papers, including the NY Daily News with the story from that week about the helicopter crash that killed Trump's VP, and how Trump was supposed to be on the flight but changed his plans at the last minute.
I also remember how Keith was pissed at Trump for trying to horn in on the Stones' press event. There was maybe talk of a knife on the table, or else I imagined that.
