What this burg needs is a Trump Music Thread. Help me out here!

Stormy Weather keeps playing thru my mind.

Someone else mentioned Bad Moon Rising, which is perfect.

Any other suggestions? Music is good for sanity and the soul.

Kyle Craft - Before the Wall:

Woody Guthrie wrote (but didn't record) a couple verses about Fred Trump being a racist dickhead in his song "I Ain't Got No Home."
Unsurprisingly, lots of musicians have been playing it with those verses over the last couple years:

And this one predates Trumps rise, but pretty much nails the modern GOP:

The fabulous lyrics include:

Sort of drifted along into S&M
I can take about an hour on the tower of power,
As long as I get my little golden shower

It must be listened to end to end in n order to truly appreciate the lyrics. However, it's not safe for offices or small children.

Well they blew the horns
And the walls came down
They'd all been warned
And the walls came down
They stood there laughing
They're not laughing anymore
The walls came down

Sanctuary fades
Congregation splits
Nightly military raids
The congregation splits
It's a song of assassins
Ringin' in your ears
We got terrorist thinking
Playing on fears

Well they blew the horns
And the walls came down
They'd all been warned
But the walls came down
I don't think there are any Russians
And there ain't no Yanks
Just corporate criminals
Playin' with tanks
