Roger Waters Deploys Famous Pig Inflatable In Attack On Donald Trump

Fan footage continues to stream out of the weekend’s classic rock megashow in California, and Desert Trip’s second weekend is set to get underway this Friday with a line-up that includes The Who, The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, Bob Dylan, Paul McCartney Neil Young and Roger Waters.  And Waters again displayed his political activism with a scathing attack on Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, who, at the same time as Waters’ performance was onstage with his opponent Hilary Clinton at the second of three pre-election debates.

As Waters performed the Pink Floyd classic “Pigs (Three Different Ones), images of Trump doing the Nazi salute and dress as a Klu Klux Klan member flashed on the screen.  And the iconic inflatable pig hovered over the audience with anti-Trump graffiti.
