On Sunday night, July 7th, Mick Jagger shot a zinger at the U.S. president during a show at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, mocking Trump for his July 4th aviation gaffe regarding the Revolutionary War.
Jagger joked to the crowd that the patriotic U.S. holiday is a bit “touchy” for Brits for obvious reasons, but he found a way to bring some levity to the celebration by mocking Trump’s historical hiccup during the president’s military show of might in Washington a few days earlier. “In fact, the president made a very good point in his speech the other night,” Jagger said. “He said, ‘If only the British had held on to the airports, the whole thing might have gone very differently for us.”
The Jagger jab came as the legendary group is in the midst of its rescheduled North American No Filter tour, which was postponed earlier this year after Jagger underwent a heart procedure. It is the latest back-and-forth between the group and Trump, following several requests from the band that he stop using their music at his political rallies.
