Singer Maren Morris leaving country music, blames the ‘Trump years’

Singer Maren Morris announced she is leaving country music due to the effects the “Trump years” have had on the music genre.
“After the Trump years, people’s biases were on full display,” “The Bones” singer said in 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.”
The Grammy-winning singer-songwriter added that she resents music being used as a “toxic weapon in culture wars.”
Referencing Jason Aldean’s hit song “Try That in a Small Town,” which made waves with conservatives, Morris said, “People are streaming these songs out of spite.”
She continued, “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.”
Morris first made political headlines last year when she criticized comments made by Aldean’s wife, Brittany Aldean, regarding gender-affirming care for transgender youth last year. Morris then faced backlash from conservative television host Tucker Carlson, whose Fox News show displayed on-screen text calling her a “lunatic country person.”
Morris poked fun at the situation and raised $100,000 for pro-trans organizations by selling a T-shirt playing on the phrase.

Says the woman who got into a social media feud with Aldean’s wife over her post stating that, since she was a tomboy growing up, she would’ve been targeted by the gender ideology fanatics had she grown up in today’s environment. Morris’s responses were just cruel, personal and nasty.
Good riddance. I started switching the station whenever one of her songs came on after that.

Never heard of her, which I'm thankful for, because she sounds like an a-hole.

The Marxist left created this new culture. We were all fine with minding our own business privately. It's the Alinksy tactic, the smear and grab. Identify your enemy, scream out loud the crime you claim they committed so the rest of the mob can shout down and destroy or cancel.
It's like the scene from Invasion of the Body snatchers were the ones that have been "turned" sense/identify the ones still human by pointing and screeching out loud so the mob of aliens can pursue, attack and turn the poor human.

Every single powerful institution in America supports her points of view on almost every issue. And every single powerful institution in America uniformly despises Donald Trump and his voters.

I think she sees Taylor Swift’s popularity and wants something similar. Not happening

I didn't realize she was "country", perhaps she meant country. The one song I have heard with her in it was on a regular station and had a ear grinding chorus. She loves trannies. She's been fighting with the conservative country folks for a while.
