Roger Waters skewers Trump during Desert Trip set

Roger Waters had both words and images to convey his disgust with Donald Trump to fans attending the Desert Trips concert Sunday (10/9). The Pink Floyd veteran revived the inflatable pig prop his former band used, this time with the Republican presidential nominee's face depicted on it along with the words 'Ignorant, lying, racist, sexist pig'.  During his set, an image of Trump with a Ku Klux Klan hood imposed on it was also displayed.  The words 'I can't believe I still have to protest this shit' were projected as he and his band played Us And Them. Waters also used the stage to express his solidarity with those supporting the rights of a group Israel has prevented from being able to provide humanitarian relief supplies to Palestinians.  Waters recently got David Gilmour and Nick Mason to join him in calling for the Israeli government to stop obstructing the delivery of aid in areas where shortages are causing suffering.
