But if it's taken from a middle of the road perspective, it will still be problems happening. Immigration will still be an issue in October of 2020 etc. He's not stupid enough to say Trump on the albums.
Ngl I had no clue Happy Now was about Obama. I always interpreted it in more of a mental health state with someone escaping some sort of bad relationship. Shows decent writing in my opinion. Open to interpretation
