Anger Over the CMAs
Unfortunately, not all country fans were so nice to the injured singer.
Some people just cannot get over the singer’s light-hearted jab at President Donald Trump during the CMA Awards on Wednesday night. Underwood and co-host Paisley sang a brief parody of her song “Before He Cheats,” entitled “Before He Tweets,” during their opening monologue.
Some fans blamed the injury on karma for her joke, and others just wanted let her know they were boycotting her music.
“It sucks you fell and I hope you get better, but maybe this was because you brought politics to a great show I will never watch again,” one detractor wrote.
????? it sucks you fell and I hope you get better… but maybe this was because you brought politics to a great show I will never watch again.

Well…Country Music is rapidly diving into oblivion. b/c the sound has changed to Pop.
Now, you think I care about your political thoughts during the #CMAawards – I do not.
Country Music reminds me of the #NFL – irrelevant.
