    I like the Woody Guthrie line from his song Lindbergh about the American fascist collaborators in the 40s:

    And I’m gonna tell you workers,
    'fore you cash in your checks
    They say “America First,” but they mean “America Next!”
    In Washington, Washington…

      Same Guthrie that wrote a couple song lyrics about Trump’s father’s properties and the racial divide that was there.

        From his 1955 song, Old Man Trump:

        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!
