Such a fitting song though because his campaign, and life, are sinking just like the Titanic.
Let me know when the keel fails and the whole thing breaks in two.
To be in compliance with copyright law, political campaigns must receive a public performance license from organizations like Broadcast Music Inc. or the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers.

If a politician that I supported wanted to use some IP of mine and didn’t ask beforehand I’d just sign the document after the fact and if a politician that I didn’t support did the same I’d send a C&D. If I thought their platform was against everything I stood for I’d make a public show of it.
How else is it supposed to go down?
There isn’t a cause of action because the music is licensed through the venue’s agreements. These stories are just click bait
Oh yeah, hah!
