Thunder Road
It’s a town full of losers, and I’m pulling out of here to win.
And now, the inspiration for today’s all Bruce Springsteen song title edition (aside from the fact that the only reason I write NextDraft is because I hope he’ll subscribe). Bruce Springsteen’s Playlist for the Trump Era. “I think we’ve got hope for a vaccine. I think any time there is a 50-foot Black Lives Matter sign leading to the White House, that’s a good sign. And the demonstrations have been white people and black people and brown people gathering together in the enraged name of love. That’s a good sign. What’s more, our president’s numbers appear to be crashing through the basement. That’s a good sign. I believe we may have finally reached a presidential tipping point with that Lafayette Square walk, which was so outrageously anti-American, so totally buffoonish and so stupid, and so anti–freedom of speech. And we have a video of it that will live on forever.”
