“Alba. Jamaica. Panama, I'm going to take you with me. Bermuda. Bahamas. Greenland, come back to your mom. Key Largo, Toronto. Trudeau, why aren't we going?” Roller said Trump. Singing with his hand, imitating the famous gestures of the film.
“There's a place from the Mediterranean that's called Gazalago. That's where we have to go to get our USAID.”
Empire State Republicans previously performed a very similar production of the song In his comedy kit Earlier this month at the Washington Press Club Foundation's annual Congress dinner.
The dinner came just a day after Trump shocked his announcement that “we will take over the Gaza Strip.”
