Joan Baez Comments on President-Elect Donald Trump 

Wow! 6 yrs ago. Love to know what she thinks about our current vessel.

Named my first daughter after Joan in 1974. Took my Joan to her concert in Seattle 1981, we had the great fortune to meet her backstage in her dressing room. So gracious, so everything we love her for. Thrilled to have such access now, via RU-vid.🌹☮

I love how bright & cheerful she is at her age. She has seen & been through a lot but she is just as resilient as ever. We need more people & artists like her.

You go, Joanie! I've loved you since I was a kid.

Love you Joan.

Hi Joan you were my idol in the sixties. I loved your songs on liberty and more importantly freedom. Long live Peace.

Joan you, with your awesome voice and songs, are wonderful.

Joanie Báez is not "NAIVE" at all. She has always being with her feet on earth. Joanie is sincere about what she´s saying and an is an eternal fighter for global peace. All my love, admiration and respect to Mrs. Báez. God bless her! My very best wishes from Venezuela! Aldo.

I hope this girl knows how lucky she is to be getting an interview with Joan Baez. I’d love to have a conversation with her....she’s MY QUEEN

Wonderful, Joan! You haven't gone the the way of Janis Joplin, or Jim Morrisson, and I am glad you are still alive and can lead another group of young activists through their world of rapid change. We grew up without computers or cell phones and I am sure like you , I grew this way too. I am 54 years old! Peace Out! Love you Joan and your 500 miles away from home, Blowing in the wind, and If I had a hammer and all the rest of your sweet ballads!

u r still great Joan. Thanks!

Joan Baez est et restera un trésor pour l'humanité.... Son empathie, sa douceur, son engagement, son âpre lutte pour la liberté, font d'elle une des plus belle personne au monde...

Love you Joanie

Joan Baez LP album Joan Baez/5 was the first record I bought as a teenager. She is my music roots. For years too many to count, my own voice was silenced by clinical depression. Thanks to à new doctor and a change in meds the nearly permanent cloud has lifted. I have picked up my Gibson Acoustic 12-String Guitar and am reteaching myself to play when the arthritis in my left hand fingers lets me. When I feel like taking on a challenge I tackle one of Josh Groban's songs. But it is the women, confident to be vulnerable when they sing with their very souls with whom I truly resonate. Long ago when I was a very young boy, my mom would come to me and sing me to sleep. No lullabies from mom. She sang hit parade and big band songs. Her favorites were Judy Garland, Doris Day, Rosemary Clooney, and Peggy Lee. Mom lives with me now. She will soon be 100. No moss or dust is on my mom's taste in music. She loves Joan Baez, Adam Levine and Shakira. Mom's vocal chords are dried out from the meds she takes. She has a rare good day every now and then. When mom is in fine full voice she sings, John Lennon's Imagine, So This is Christmas (at Christmas time) and All That Jazz from Chicago. So mom is my genetic link to music. Joan Baez is my roots. Currently, I am listening to Belgian-Canadian singer Lara Fabian and Dutch rocker Anouk. I wonder if Lara Fabian and Joan would collaborate on something if introduced to each other.

She does the bidding of the very same people she is against.

"Big empty vessel,thanks mum! Here in germany we say"flaschen leer or tote hose"

What a lovely woman now at 75, loved her since I was at uni millions of years ago. Like Dylan, Willie, Cash and others may they live forever

Still at it Joan, thank you.

A hundred years from now Trump will pretty much be forgotten but Baez's songs will still be sung.

This woman is history embodied, an extraordinary artist

Yes Joan; also known as malignant narcissism. He is in my prayers as well.

Joan speaks from her ❤️ just as she sings 🎼 from her heart. A very wise & beautiful, intelligent person who says’ what she 👀’s Joan would have made a “great president” love you JB 🙏🏼🌹

We need Joan again. Woodstock in 69 was a game changer for me. What a summer.

I am sure Joan is happy now that we have a president who is brilliant truthful incorruptible and generally an inspiration

I recently knew about her, and I watched this video for the first time. How beautiful she is, and how she is so insightful. She knew he did not have any empathy some years ago. She is a real Christian, real woman, real singer, and real American.

The sunflower generation has not moved on at all.

Thank u,Miss Baez!❤️💙💗🌈🧡💛💚💙💜🖤🤍🤎

God bless Joan, never give up the fight for truth and justice!

Wonderful woman, A true artist, magical voice, Just an all round superb human.

Such a lovely voice...

Joan's very good, superb. 👌

What a shame wonder what she would have to say now looking back

She has aged so beautifully

Joan Baez 💕💜💙💚💗💛🧡💜Beautiful spirit, voice, appearance and life. As long as Joan lives amongst us - We Shall Overcome.xxxx

Very insightful. I just found this artist today and I love her already.

Joan performed "Joe Hill" for Occupy Wall Street on Veterans Day 2011. She inspires every protest movement she touches.

Should we take from this that Joan would have preferred Hillary?

A blessing to see that beautiful smile undiminished.

Hello I remember meeting you in 1970s in Long Beach at the Pike

At least she wasn't vile about it. She didn't exhibit TDS and was respectful. She's actually the kind of liberal that existed years ago in this country. I don't agree with all her politics, but I'd listen to her anytime.

pure class ...

Amazing to read the comments here. 1/2 the comments praising Joan, 1/2 the comments criticizing her.

How the passage of time can change perspectives. Biden or Trump? lol

Go to it lady! The first time I ever loved what you said. Keep it up!

Love this lady, great artist and person.

Joan's wisdom and perspicacity is a welcome and refreshing contrast to the anti-Trump hysteria sweeping the nation-- half of the nation, anyway. I agree with her observations. And, no, I'm not "pro" Trump or "for" Trump. I'm just against hysteria fed by paranoia, panic, and binary thinking.

A good singer, a beautiful woman.Joan, forever young.

A great talent that given me great pleasure over mean year's. But stuck in the 60/70's

I wonder why she doesn't say something about Brandon today

Dear Joan, Did you think about unity and equality when you "visited" Nam and parlayed around with the Viet cong and shunned the boys this government ORDERED to go there and fight? I had all your records and enjoyed them up til then. Then I threw them out in my gravel driveway and ran forward and backed over them many, many times with my dad's manure spreader.

Amazing! Before I even heard a word from her mouth I guessed correctly that she would have something bad to say about Trump. Liberals never seem to have an original thought. I guess they all think the same because they have the same friends, listen to the same news, believe the same things and shut out the same voices. Conservatives, on the other hand, think for themselves. This is why we do not always agree but we generally agree about the truth of what is happening in politics. Notice that Joan has a disparaging remark about Trump's personality. Conservatives could care less about how polished a man's speech or demeanor is. Liberals always attack the individual with personal attacks.

God bless you Joan

Oh and by the way you still look beautiful as then

She should stick to the guitar. We understand she is not aware.

We love your music. Stick to it. Time will judge Donald. He has love for country.

Lawrence Kohlberg (stages of morality) would be proud of you Joan. I also am in support of the youth and believe in them.

love you, Joan.

Goodbye My lovely Lady. ❤️

Always says what I’m thinking. Bless you!

💓 U Joan

Joan, before I saw this video I would have driven 500 miles to see you if you came to our area. So sad to find that you don't care about half of America, or half of what could have been your fans. If for no other reason than that, count me out.

I thought this lady was dead. One of the most powerful female voices in music, a true folk legend. It's a pity she's on the wrong side of the fence :{

Joan, back in the day I and my fellow soldiers loved your voice, your songs would bring tears to our eyes, I can't agree with you on the Commander & Chief and I think you can understand why. Remember the song lyrics " give peace a chance" I feel that way about Donald Trump, give him a chance and lets see what he can do.

Lol short and very well worded !

Proof that a good voice and charisma on stage do not wisdom make!

Now we're stuck with Bumbling Biden, along with Caramello Harris ... I want my Trump back. Just hand her a Molotov Cocktail and send her on her way.

Finally stopped crying enough myself.

Very much wanted to hear what she had to say about America and Trump and her comments about now! These are things I love about You Tube and Twitter! Like nuggets of gold! Aussie Lady! Out of interest counted records I had from 70’s 6 also 1 of Dylan! Also have a record player to play them!

I don’t understand how anyone could like at Trump and think “Yeah, that’s what we need”. I don’t understand.

What a great way to put it, from a beautiful voiced vessel.

Yesssssssssssssssssssssss

Joan tells it in a way that is genuine and not hateful.

"Trump? Well, he's certainly not in the same league with Fidel Castro or Ho Chi Minh!"

And Joe is what?????

Love you, Joan. Still a woman of the world and a pacifist. You haven't changed.

Joan is as beautiful and wise a person as there is on the planet. So lovely, inside and out !

Traduccion?

5 years later Joan nailed it.

Joan, you're breaking my heart lol. but i at the end of the day... you're music and personality inspired me and my values more than that my libertarian & conservative vaules.

I love you.

Orange man bad.

Does she think biden has empathy for regular folks?

She looks like a General from the latest Star Wars. Three years later, the stock market is up 10,000 and blacks have a 50 year low in unemployment, of course Trump has nothing to do with that. He uses the Dark Side of the Force.

:))) Amazing music!

Highly disappointed, still love you Joan btw

joan is nearly a bodhisattva. look at her beautiful compassion for these compassionless demons in office.

Joan Baez needs, really, really needs to teach a Master Class in guitar. Where can I sign up?!

Sencillamente una leyenda de la humanidad

yea right Hilary had empathy-what a joke

no thank you

Came here to say that Joan Baez is a badass!!! As a woman trying to find a way, thankfully her music was recommended to me by some much older friends a few years ago. (I'm 37 now). Great music has no expiration date, I'm very eclectic with my interests.

I love Joan's music, but the people at that rally are some of the biggest "empty vessels"

Why smart people sometimes judged the future so quickly while forgetting the past that other smart people hate.

Very good JOAM BAEZ 500 MILES😍🙆‍♂️

She's exactly right. Donald Trump wouldn't know an original thought if it slapped him upside the head.

We should all be so lucky as to age as she has.

Did she change her mind since that interview... she's been proven so wrong regarding Donald !

So true

God she was SO right. Jan 23. 2021

Always true to her beliefs. That is why I have always had deep respect for this woman, and of course, that beautiful voice!
