Legendary musician Neil Young is no fan of President Donald Trump—but it appears the Trump campaign is a fan of his.

The campaign played three of Young's songs—including the classic "Rockin' in the Free World"—at his recent Independence Day speech in front of Mount Rushmore in Keystone, South Dakota.

Young condemned the use of his work at Trump's rallies.


Young, however, won't be suing Trump, emphasizing in an open letter that he didn't want to distract from Trump's work on the health crisis that's killed over 130 thousand Americans. In fact, Young announced that he rewrote his song "Looking for a Leader" to specifically apply to Trump.

He welcomed the President's use of "Looking for a Leader 2020" at his rallies:

"I suggest you listen to my song 'Looking for a Leader 2020,' available on my website, neilyoungarchives.com as part of a work I recently completed with my wife—'The Porch Episode,' as I believe it would be an interesting addition to your next rally."

You can listen to the full song here, beginning at the 17:15 mark.

The lyrics endorse presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden, with lyrics like:

"Yeah we had Barack Obama,
And we really need him now.
The man who stood behind him
Has to take his place somehow."

Young then targets Trump:

"America has a leader
Building walls around our house
Don't know Black lives matter,
and we've got to vote him out."

Finally, the musician urges voters to take the 2020 election seriously:

"We got our election
But corruption has a chance
We got to have a big win
to regain confidence
America is beautiful
But she has an ugly side
We're looking for a leader in this country far and wide."

People applauded Young's updated version of the popular song.





Some people still wished the musician would take legal action against Trump playing Young's hits at his rallies.




Young's lyrical rebuke comes just months after he eviscerated Trump in an open letter this past February.

Karoline Leavitt Slammed After Suggesting Reports Of Deadly Strike On Iranian Girls' School Are Just 'Propaganda'

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was criticized after she rejected reports that the U.S. struck a girls' elementary school in Iran, killing 175 people, insisting in remarks to the press pool that it's just Iranian "propaganda" that they've "fallen" for.

Iranian state media and health officials said the strike occurred early Saturday morning in Minab, in the country’s southern Hormozgan Province. Journalists from international news organizations have not been granted access to independently verify the reported death toll or the circumstances surrounding the strike.

Model Accuses Fashion Brand Of Using AI To Recreate Her Looks For Ad Instead Of Hiring Her

There used to be laws in place for someone's likeness being used without their consent, and most certainly if their likeness was being used in an exploitative way for profit.

But now with the rise of AI-generated photographs, advertisements, and other digital products, the lines seem to have become muddied between the illegal stealing of someone's likeness and AI "inspiration."

TikToker Secretly Records Unhinged Spectrum Employee Screaming At Her For Trying To Cancel Her Service

Employees in commission-based positions are feeling increasingly pressured to acquire new clients, retain previous clients, and solve the issues their clients call in about with high satisfaction ratings.

Even though tensions are high, and the pressure they're feeling may be unrealistic for any one person to take, that doesn't give them the right to mistreat people who do not want to sign up or want to cancel.
