Not only was it by far the largest rally in the country with more than 2,000 in attendance, it also had the best music, which is only fitting for The Music City. Entertainer Ty Williams led off with the rousing public debut of his new song, “Make America Great Again.” Then State Rep. Terri Lynn Weaver (R-Lancaster), an accomplished singer-songwriter, dazzled the enthusiastic audience with a stirring rendition of the National Anthem. Tennessee may be the only state in the union where it is not surprising at all to find a state legislator capable of belting out an a capella version of the Star Spangled Banner that brought tears to the eyes of many in the audience. The crowd sang the first verse along with Weaver, who delivered the second verse as an a capella solo. You can watch the entire performance here: The lyrics to the fourth verse are: Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand Between their loved homes and the war’s desolation! Blessed with victory and peace, may the heaven-rescued land Praise the…
