Donald Trump’s Hype Song At Rally Ironically Slams Rich Draft Dodgers

President Donald Trump disembarked Air Force One in Michigan Thursday to the rock ‘n’ roll classic “Fortunate Son.”

But instead of acting as a campaign rally hype song, it played more like a diss track.

“It ain’t me
It ain’t me
I ain’t no millionaire’s son, no, no
It ain’t me
It ain’t me
I ain’t no fortunate one, no,” he sings.

Trump, of course, inherited wealth and has been called a draft dodger for a claim of bone spurs in his foot that allowed him to skip military service during the Vietnam War. Former presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg, an Afghan War veteran, accused the president of exploiting his privilege.

It isn’t the first time the playlist for a Trump event has raised eyebrows. Last month “Live and Let Die” blared before his speech in Clyde, Ohio ― quite the musical choice for a president whose mishandling of the coronavirus pandemic doubtlessly contributed to a higher death toll. And he had used that song before.
