But don't you know klein, Kate Hudson broke down and cried when she heard it for the first time!

(I don't know, that seems pretty white to me.) (No, I am not independently verifying that it's a thing. I don't think I can, since I'm a hater.)

It's a big, dumb, universal pop song. Really, it's a Journey track, or a Lionel Ritchie track. Considering how few big, dumb, universal pop songs we have any more, it's not surprising that people are reacting to it like it's 1984. Which is the point of the article: Donald Trump has big, dumb, universal ideas that happen to be throwbacks to "Country Time remembers" era White America.
