First time I ever knew about Hank Jr. was when I went to a drive-in movie in which he portrayed his dad. That would've been in the early 70s. I liked him then. I have not followed him and I sure wouldn't care to now. And, I certainly don't give a shit what he thinks of politics.
Moral of the story: don't saddle a kid with a "Jr" name. Never did like that; each kid deserves their own name. Maybe he would've turned out different without such an onus. (And, I love Hank Sr.'s music.)
