Donald Trump has had a really hard time finding musicians to perform at his Make America Great Again! Welcome Celebration on 1/19. Boofuckinghoo! So far he's got the very bad band 3 Doors Down, Toby Keith, Jon Voight, DJ Ravidrums, the Piano Guys, Tim Rushlow, Larry Stewart, Marty Roe, Lee Greenwood, and now: Sam Moore, of the soul duo Sam And Dave. Moore told the Associated Press that he thought it was "unfair" that Jennifer Holliday was criticized so heavily for agreeing to perform at the event. He initially planned on attending to see Holliday sing, but when she dropped out, Moore offered up his services in her place. He shared some of his feelings about Trump with The Washington Post:

He’s got a big mouth, like me... Whether you agree with him or not, he’s going to say what’s on his mind.

Moore, who has already performed for five presidents throughout the course of his career, encouraged his fellow Americans to give Trump a chance to lead.

Give the man a shot... He hasn’t even said "I do" yet. Give him a chance. If you don’t like him after four years, then don’t vote for him next time.
