Did R.E.M. predict the future? (End of the world as we know it)

So, my wife sends me a news update this am about US plans to shoot down North Korean test missiles and says "Cue R.E.M.". I responded with the obvious text of the song from my iTunes library. Now I haven't listened to that song in a while but I heard a lyric that stood out to me...take a listen and see if you catch it: (hint it's at the end of the first verse)

"Team by team reporters baffled, trump"

Yeah the official lyrics are lowercase "trump" but it is an interesting coincidence...or maybe not!!
