I think this is a good representation of how Donald Trump’s brain works.

Nothing in this song is actually original — it’s assembled from hundreds of samples with nothing beyond some scratching added, mostly from old recordings from all kinds of sources.

The song was released in the U.S. in 2001, the year after it charted in the UK and Australia.
