    Default Singer Maren Morris says she's quitting country music over "toxic" effects of "Trump

    Singer-songwriter Maren Morris recently announced her departure from country music, citing the effect the "Trump years" have had on the genre as her reason for leaving. "After the Trump years, people's biases were on full display," said the Grammy-winning Morris during an interview with the Los Angeles Times published Friday. "It just revealed who people really were and that they were proud to be misogynistic and racist and homophobic and transphobic." Morris also alluded to Jason Aldean's controversial hit song, "Try That in a Small Town," saying that she dislikes the way music is being used as a "toxic weapon in culture wars."

    People are streaming these songs out of spite," Morris said, adding, "It's not out of true joy or love of the music. It's to own the libs. And that's so not what music is intended for. Music is supposed to be the voice of the oppressed — the actual oppressed. And now it's being used as this really toxic weapon in culture wars."

    Country music used to not suck. Of course, I'm talking about when I was younger. Stuff like Joe Diffie, Little Texas, Alabama, The Tractors.

    She sucks any way you slice it.

    Tell her to go to Fist City.

    Tell her to come back when she can do Fist City, for that matter.

    I used to have me a Loretta Lynn type girl.

    Meh, even a lot of that sucked. No steel guitar=not country music.

    Unless it's Patsy Cline. She gets a pass.



    For some reason I can picture SRV playing this. I like that real country.
