General John Kelly: "He said that, in his opinion, Mr. Trump met the definition of a fascist, would govern like a dictator if allowed, and had no understanding of the Constitution or the concept of rule of law."

I've always been a David Byrne and David Bowie fan.
This is spectacular!
Heroes
David Bowie
I, I wish you could swim
Like the dolphins
Like dolphins can swim
Though nothing, nothing will keep us together
We can beat them, forever and ever
Oh, we can be heroes just for one day
I, I will be King
And you, you will be Queen
Though nothing will drive them away
We can be heroes just for one day
We can be us just for one day
I, I can remember
(I remember)
Standing by the wall
(By the wall)
And the guns, shot above our heads
(Over our heads)
And we kissed, as though nothing could fall
(Nothing could fall)
And the shame, was on the other side
Oh, we can beat them, forever and ever
Then we could be heroes just for one day
We can be heroes
We can be heroes
We can be heroes just for one day
We can be heroes
Songwriters: Brian Eno / David Bowie

This really is wonderful. I, too, have been a big fan of both (with a school girl crush thrown in).
I think it should be used to get out the vote in 2020 (we can be heroes just for today)!!

Thank you for posting this. Only a performer of David Byrne's caliber could do any justice to one of Bowie's songs.
