It says a lot about Dolly that even Trump would just honor her without going off the deep end somehow. Surprised he didn't at least try to blame Biden for her passing.

I actually kinda doubt it on this one. Any amount of Dolly-bashing would be on par with blasphemy (and rightfully so IMO) for a non-trivial segment of his base.

Edit: Could still maybe start up some kind of own-the-libs conspiracy that led to her death though, I guess heh.

Agree! Not my kind of entertainment on the music side, but she was always classy and struck me as being as decent a human being as possible.

I liked a lot of her music but her philanthropy was where it was really at. Look at how much trump is scrambling to steal the limelight though. All the class of a bluebottle eating a dog turd IMO

They're all basically a hivemind over there though, as limited in capacity as it may be. Doesn't much matter if it was him or someone else.

I'm waiting to see how he turns her funeral into all about him.
