Vince McMahon usually plays "America the Beautiful" at WrestleMania which I've always thought was an implied acknowledgement that the anthem stinks.

Also do any of these fat fucks at home getting mad about people kneeling get off their rear end take off their hats and set down their loving beer while the anthems on? No

What are the best anthems other than Italy and France? Those are my faves. I also enjoy any anthem played on steel drum, as often happens in Trinidad and Tobago.

South American anthems have their own distinct style- Brazil's is excellent imo.

You're giving Trump too much credit. He's always failing at something and always saying something insane. The latter is not necessarily an attempt to distract from the former.

Of the three "major" patriotic songs, America the Beautiful is the best by far. Star Spangled Banner is the worst, and God Bless America is almost just as bad.

The worst patriotic song is My Country Tis of Thee, which is just a worse version of God Save the Queen, a song that was bad enough already.
