His popularity waned and he found a home in the radical right side of country music.
And for any assholes that comment, “It’s all like that!”, no it ain’t. It’s now mostly formulaic dreck out of Nashville, just like Christian music.
Country was pretty good in the day, and we don’t have to go back to Old Hank. Reba, Jackson, Parton, Hank Jr., Rogers, all of them sang hard hitting songs about real people. thier lives and struggles. And if you put on Don’t Take the Girl, I’ll cry my eyes out. Don’t you do it!
Used to like a few of his tunes, but he’s gone so bat-shit, over-the-top right-wing I just don’t want to hear him.
I can usually ignore performers personal beliefs, at least a bit, but I do mean to say, he’s nuts these days.
There’s the normal “little whacky” that pretty much every major celebrity is. Then there’s whatever the fuck kid rock is now. My god.

I actually think there’s a good number of good country songs, and a good number of the artists are actually good people.
There’s shitty people in every genre of music, is what it is.
