I think we all recall Trump walking out during his campaign rallies to the incredibly ironic Stones song, _You Cant Always Get What You Want_.
Now that he’s President, what equally ironic songs/lyrics will be using for his various Presidential duties?
One I thought of for his entrance music at Press Conferences is _The Boxer_ by Simon and Garfunkel.
_All lies and jests
Still a man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest_
Any other suggestions?

I suggested this in a previous Trump music thread. When People Find Out by Steve Earle. (aka “Where You Gonna Run To?”)

Theme music from cops? Somewhere over the rainbow?

“Sympathy for the Devil” by The Rolling Stones should be Trump’s theme song/entrance music. Selected lines/partial lyrics reproduced for fair use critical purposes below:
> [@Mick Jagger](#):

> Please allow me to introduce myself
> I’m a man of wealth and taste
> I’ve been around for a long, long year
> Stole many a man’s soul to waste

> Pleased to meet you
> Hope you guess my name
> But what’s puzzling you
> Is the nature of my game

> I stuck around St. Petersburg

Also, “You’re So Vain” by Carly Simon - Trump’s so vain he’d probably think this song is about him.

His theme music should definitely be “Frolic”, better known as the [Curb Your Enthusiasm theme song](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUGNbkJmM-w).

For treaty negotiations, a Wanda Jackson classic\* would work nicely:
_Well you can say I’m crazy stone deaf and dumb
But I can cause destruction just like the atom bomb_
