Conservative raged against the moment. The media and the Left, but we repeat ourselves, framed it in the most positive light possible. Cooler heads wished Green Day cared about the erosion of free speech from the woke Left.

One thing is clear.

Consider it the Hollywood starter pistol for 2024. The anti-Donald Trump movement has officially begun.

[Meh. Even if Trump wasn’t running, Green Day would still have lamely politicized their appearance, and ABC/Disney probably included them for that purpose. It’s a desperate bid for relevance on an occasion where most Americans would prefer to celebrate life and fellowship instead, but Hollywood hasn’t been able to read the room for the last couple of decades. I tuned into CBS’ celebration in Nashville instead and enjoyed it far more. — Ed]
