The Demos are great for calling their stimuluseseses pump priming, but they always forget the next part

"you must have faith and believe, You've got to give of yourself ‘fore you're worthy to receive".

PS The Trio's last charted hit, from the summer of '63, definitely from my yute. If you listen to the instrumentals, you'll hear the work of a then-unknown musician named Glen Campbell who was an unofficial member of both the Trio and the Beach Boys in the early 60s.

I love how Trump is co-opting that JFK era message. D's these days are just so vindictive. It starts with Rodham and permeates the whole DNC Party structure on down.

I wonder if there is a subliminal connection between "Desert Pete" and St. Peter?
