I’m guessing Hank Jr is not long for his MNF gig... He’ll be fired by week’s end.
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Limbaugh got canned for crossing the pc line also.
Anyhow, I get his analogy. He was saying that he found the idea that people who would have been mortal enemies, “Hitler and Netanyahu”, would act chummy together to be unseemly and repugnant. He sees them as two faces of same coin, playing some sort of game with the public. He probably should have used better words to express his disgust. But, Hank Williams has never been one to mince words.
All things considered, this was a terrible interview for Hank Williams. It started off very stand-offish and continued in that manner for the rest of the interview. This is a morning show with light weight hosts, not really intended for serious or combative politics. So, his demeanor on this occasion was out of place. If his intent was to promote his career or his father’s music, he probably did neither a great service.
Regardless, I like Hank Williams and I think his honesty is refreshing. Even though I may agree with his general critique of our current political leaders, he probably should have chosen a different venue to make these remarks. It will be interesting to see if this causes him a problem with his NFL gig.
