Comments about the soundtrack for The Call of the Wild (John Powell)

I hate banjos. It's something I can't really rationalize but there's something about the sound of banjos that leaves me paranoid. I love a bit of Americana and Southern rock but banjos are the liberal conspiracy to invade our ears with sickening sound. They make me outright run for the hills. Guitars on the other hand make me calm. John Powell should have used more acoustic guitar in Call of the Wild because it is the true instrument of God, America, and the great values of President Trump.

Great, now I will forever associate acoustic guitars with such lovely values as grift, sedition and rabble-rousing.

Something can't simultaneously be the instrument of God, America, and Trump. That man is the antithesis of anything divine or patriotic. And Powell has not kept his feelings about the disgraced, twice-impeached, one-term ex-President a secret. If I had to guess, your comment would only affirm to him that using as many banjos in the score as often as possible was the right decision.
