Um, everybody OK with Trump playing "Dixie" at a rally -- in 2024? In Pennsylvania?!

Then came a song that I am surprised has not been mentioned more in coverage of the event: “Dixie,” as sung by Elvis Presley. Yes, it was part of the hip-swinging singer’s cover of “American Trilogy,” a three-song medley. But it was still “Dixie,” the unofficial anthem of the Confederacy! Played at a presidential campaign event in the year 2024! Without anyone commenting on it!
