In contrast to several (not all) contemporary country music stars, but reassuring, nonetheless.

can you picture Johnnie Cash writing and singing; 'When Trump Falls Into That "Burning Ring of Fire" -- He'll go down, down, down and the flames will go higher!

It will be my soundtrack for the day.

"The Man In Black" pretty well says it all.

have the right to unfollow her, back in January, but the rest of the quote is apparently fake. Popped up on social media days ago, no news stories about it, no links to any post of her own.

So, quotes or not, it does NOT change my perception of her.

her mouth, making her just a puppet for their own words. That was egotistical and disrespectful of whoever created that fake quote.

said them since long before AI existed. Especially on the internet. I just think it's unfair to do that. I have no idea who made up that quote, days ago, but since there's no evidence Rosanne Cash said it, I don't think DU should add to the internet myth that she did.

I like the statement in the fake quote and would have been happy if I'd found any evidence she said it - and would have posted that evidence and asked that it be included the OP.

But it's important to distinguish fact from fiction, and as far as I've been able to discover, that quote is fiction.

I suspect I'm not alone. Dishonest individually-created attributions or dishonest AI-CREATED attributions have quite the similar result IMO.

this fake quote when it first appeared online days ago.

Threads post from Rosanne in early February - a post that was also apparently completely missed by news media at the time, and by MAGA defenders on social media. So much so that there was nothing about it other than the first replies on Threads, until it suddenly was quoted on a number of different social media platforms a few days ago, with none of those new posts about it linking to the original post.

See replies 49 and 51 below, which link to this thread in Community Help with a more detailed explanation: https://www.democraticunderground.com/125630143

I'm usually very good at finding info online, and I'd done what was probably the most exhaustive search I'd ever done for a quote, but Google didn't find it, and when I checked Bing and DuckDuckGo later, they weren't working very well, either. I'm very disillusioned with search atm.

I'm even wondering if the problems I had finding it might've been related to MAGA and the news media not reacting to it then. I'll be interested in seeing how they react now that the quote popped up suddenly on different platforms more than 2-1/2 months after it was posted.

into search, instead of just keywords and phrases. And I turned out to be wrong in assuming the media ALWAYS quickly spot the kinds of statements DUers would want to know about. Especially from musicians. I've found so many posts, many with articles, about musicians speaking out against Trump on Reddit's r/Music, where they applaud those protests. But no one on Reddit had noticed Rosanne's Feb. 6 post on Threads, either.

Her dad would hate trump's guts.

is there a link or attachment in your OP? I can't see it.

I can see it now! Thank you.

Well said.

no info about where or when she said this, and absolutely no news stories about it, though that would definitely have made news if it were a real quote from her.

posts repeating it on Facebook, Threads, etc., with no link to news or to her own social media messages with that statement. It's hard to believe there would NOT have been a lot of news stories about that statement. Until I can find some, my best guess is that's a fake quote. Even if it were an old quote, I'd be finding news stories about it.

Politics have gone from agreeing to disagree to it's either the GOP way or the highway. Screw that!

supporters could unfollow her, but this is how her statement ended then:

This nation needs to be cleansed of all their shit.

I agree with Ms. Cash that there isn't any common ground; but liberals are under no obligation to try and find it.

==============

K&R

deleted or edited if they couldn't find any proof it's real (I couldn't, despite a lot of checking) instead of leaving it there to fool people all day.

That's all I was saying.

Rosanne Cash!

Do you know the date of this message?

that it's a real quote, and there isn't any. Someone invented that quote and posted it in a mockup of a Rosanne Cash social media post, apparently a few days ago, and launched it on social media.

Rosanne Cash didn't post it or say it anywhere.

And her father, Johnny, Do love Democracy and the People, though.

Also, it shouldn't be fake. Why would anyone do that?

Thanks,

a celebrity's fame because if it was just their own words it would likely be ignored.

It's FAKE. It's been circulating on social media platforms since at least April 28, and there's no way in hell news outlets wou!d have ignored it IF it was real.

It isn't. But this stupid fake quote has a lot of RWers online posting really nasty comments about Rosanne Cash for something she didn't say. A lot of those people have guns. Some of them are crazy.

And the nitwit who created and launched this fake quote picked a fight for her with them by putting words in her mouth.

No one has a right to do that.

I want nothing to do with Magats.

quote. Didn't you see my replies explaining there are absolutely no news stories to show it's real, even though it's been circulating on social media for a few days?

Please either find actual proof she said it or posted it online, or correct your OP to admit there's no proof at all it's a real quote.

I can't find any news stories about it, and it isn't on her social media accounts.

Any real statement this strongly worded would have immediately made headlines. But no news outlet fell for this fake quote. They would have checked to see if it was real.

I wish you would have.

a Facebook posting which seemed legitimate (and may be) given her strong negative opinion of trump and her fear he might be reelected in 2024 as indicated in the link below.

In the future I'll provide the appropriate link to any stories I post as absolute verification

harsher toward Trump supporters than anything else she's said that I've run across.

I'm well aware she can't stand Trump and his regime. I mentioned in my posts above that she'd reminded his supporters in January that they have the right to unfollow her. But there's a huge difference between what she said then, the tone she used then, and the wording of the fake quote in the OP.

It isn't OK for anyone to put words in someone else's mouth just because they think it's possible they might say something like that. Whoever made up the quote in the OP didn't do her any favors.

I tried to explain this to you when you posted that AI deepfake of Obama last fall that fooled some other DUers. There's so much fake stuff online that it's very important to check stuff before reposting it.

This fake quote has made a lot of people angry at her who weren't before.

She can make her own statements, when she wants to make them. The last thing she needs in an incendiary political environment is someone making up statements for her. I know you didn't make this up, you just copied it, but unfortunately you didn't check to see if it was true before copying it here.

is there but did not show up in any of my searches and still won't show up in any searches I've done limiting Google search to Threads. Nor did that Feb. 6 post on Threads get mentioned in any news stories then, and there were apparently no references to it anywhere on social media until that image showed up on social media just a few days ago.

Please see my long reply 4 at https://www.democraticunderground.com/125630143 . It looks as though Google search is badly broken (and Bing and DuckDuckGo are worse). What I posted here earlier was because of search results, and I'd spent a long time searching. But the search results I got missed that February threads posts somehow, and with the lack of news stories about it and there being mentions in social media of it only the last few days - and none of those recent posts about it saying where it came from - it really did seem very much like a fake quote.

Again, I apologize. I'm still not sure how Google found recent posts quoting that 2/6 post but couldn't find the original...or how the media missed reporting it, and no one on social media mentioned it for more than two months.

in search for me me even when I make the Google search specific to Threads.

I posted a very long reply to your post with that link in the Community Help thread I'd posted, at https://www.democraticunderground.com/125630143 .

Search is apparently broken. Google search is because I absolutely can't find that Thread post of Rosanne's with search (but as bad as Google is, I tested Bing and DuckDuckGo quickly and they were much worse).

I was wrong, as I can tell now from the link you just posted. But no amount of searching found that link, as I explained in reply 4 at https://www.democraticunderground.com/125630143 . I drew conclusions from the search results, but I was still wrong.
