Has Donald Trump really made a gay club, EDM floor-filler?

A cleverly-edited video has gone viral on TikTok. It takes portions of Donald Trump’s speeches, chops them up and sets them to an EDM beat. It edits them alongside images of men kissing and photos of the White House lit in rainbow colors.

The fact Trump says “I’m going to come” adds a sexual element that you may or—probably—may not appreciate.

The video is the work of TikTokker @sleepycell.

Watch it below. Be warned — perhaps keep the volume low if watching in your office or around strangers.

The video has gone viral since dropping yesterday.

“I am simultaneously entertained and repulsed 😂” was one well-liked comment.

“Did you just make the song of the summer??” asked someone else.

It’s also picked up traction on X (formerly Twitter).

Please god let Trump see this and lose his mind.

Trump’s unauthorized use of music

We suspect Trump, who prides himself as a macho man, will not be amused by the video. In fact, it might prompt him to u-turn again and support a US ban on TikTok.

Then again, as he’s happy to play songs at his rallies without first seeking permission, he surely can’t complain, right?

Earlier this month, the estate of the late, Irish singer Sinead O’Connor asked Trump to stop playing her song, “Nothing Compares 2 U”.

In a statement issued through her long-term record label, Chrysalis, O’Connor’s estate said, “Throughout her life, it is well known that Sinéad O’Connor lived by a fierce moral code defined by honesty, kindness, fairness, and decency towards her fellow human beings.

“It was with outrage therefore that we learned that Donald Trump has been using her iconic performance of Nothing Compares 2 U at his political rallies.

“It is no exaggeration to say that Sinéad would have been disgusted, hurt, and insulted to have her work misrepresented in this way by someone who she herself referred to as a ‘biblical devil’.”

Other artists who have Trump to cease playing their music at his rallies include Rihanna (“Don’t Stop The Music”), Adele (“Skyfall”), and Bruce Springsteen (“Born In The USA”).

Here’s to @sleepycell for coming up with something new for Donald to pump out at his rallies!
