If you loved Keith Urban like I did,

[tavernier]

you may want to rethink it. He is partying with Trump at Mara Lago and entertaining his “elite” guests. He even had the nerve to sing Pink Pony Club for the scum.

1. uggh... I don't know the ins and outs of the big break-up, but had given him benefit-of-the-doubt...

Unless he has a brain tumor or a gun to his head, not sure how to excuse that idiocy.

2. I really tried to like country music

But too many of the artists are RWNJs. Even before trump.

4. try some that's more like this:

a little digging and there’s some great stuff out there

9. The most iconic country band consisted of three lefties and and apolitical guy.

3. He isn't "partying with Trump"

He was hired to perform for a private, non-Trump function at MAL (I have seen no evidence Trump was at the event).

Performing a gay anthem at MAL is either the perfect FU or completely tone deaf irony.

We’ve got bigger fish to fry than Keith Urban.

6. Maybe he can get a gig in Riyadh?

7. I like your take

I already have refused to look at movies with trump ass clingers in them. The damn list is growing. So I will give Urban the reasonable doubt , for now. One bad ass guitarist, so I hope you are right.
But I also avoid country for the fact so many are trumpers. But when I find the ones that are not, I certainly listen to them.

8. Trump was there, seated next to the host.

Urban would surely have known he would be there.

..."The president was seen sitting next to Pratt, 65, an Australian businessman who donated $10 million to Trump’s 2024 election campaign. In April, Pratt also pledged $5 billion to support Trump’s call to reindustrialize the U.S., according to Axios. ".... (more)

13. Thanks for the info

Hadn’t seen that before (I generally don’t read People magazine)

Looks like Urban needs some quick cash to cover his divorce expenses.

[obamanut2012]

12. Except Trump was there, and Keith is a multi-millionaire who doesn't need the gig

If you sit down at a table with 12 Nazis, there is now 13 Nazis at that table.

And sorry, but I can multi-task and fry many fish at once, including Keith Urban.

5. The party host is Australian billionaire Anthony Pratt,

with whom Trump shared U.S. nuclear secrets and who in turn blabbed those secrets all over the place.
https://www.google.com/amp/s/abcnews.go.com/amp/US/after-white-house-trump-allegedly-discussed-potentially-sensitive/story%3fid=103760456

"Months after leaving the White House, former President Donald Trump allegedly discussed potentially sensitive information about U.S. nuclear submarines with a member of his Mar-a-Lago Club -- an Australian billionaire who then allegedly shared the information with scores of others, including more than a dozen foreign officials, several of his own employees, and a handful of journalists, according to sources familiar with the matter.

The potential disclosure was reported to special counsel Jack Smith's team as they investigated Trump's alleged hoarding of classified documents at Mar-a-Lago, the sources told ABC News. The information could shed further light on Trump's handling of sensitive government secrets.

Prosecutors and FBI agents have at least twice this year interviewed the Mar-a-Lago member, Anthony Pratt, who runs U.S.-based Pratt Industries, one of the world's largest packaging companies.
....
According to Pratt's account, as described by the sources, Pratt told Trump he believed Australia should start buying its submarines from the United States, to which an excited Trump -- "leaning" toward Pratt as if to be discreet -- then told Pratt two pieces of information about U.S. submarines: the supposed exact number of nuclear warheads they routinely carry, and exactly how close they supposedly can get to a Russian submarine without being detected."....

10. For too many, money talks. Morality can wait.

[ForgedCrank]

11. Politics do

not steer every single facet of my life. I like Keith Urban and will continue to like his music. He's not my friend, and I don't aspire to be like him. I simply like his art.

[Iggo]

14. Don't buy his merch.

Other than that, not much else you can do.

Fellating rich guys gonna fellate each other.

[we can do it]

15. No loss fake crappy country.
