Unquestionably the best thing to happen this year — Weird Al has appeared in a video as a singing moderator using footage from last Wednesday’s presidential debate.
Republican and Democratic nominees Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton both appear in the video, their discussions from the latest presidential debate remixed to fit the catchy tune.
Weird Al, famed for videos such as Eat It, Amish Paradise, and White & Nerdy, teamed up with the Gregory Brothers for this latest release.
Bad Hombres, Nasty Women
“Bad Hombres, Nasty Women” is the latest in the Songify series from the Gregory Brothers. Previous creations from the brothers include a creepy transplant in which Trump appears in the 1960 JFK/Nixon debate.
The new video has been described by the Gregory Brothers as:
“A terrifying space opera about bad hombres and nasty women… So terrifying, in fact, that it ripped open a wormhole to another dimension, and pulled an unsuspecting Weird Al Yankovic in from his home in a parallel universe to moderate the whole thing.”
Internet Reaction
The Twitterverse has leaped to congratulate Weird Al and the Gregory Brothers on the video. Here is what several users had to say on the subject:
I'm wishing #weirdal would run for #POTUS beat #trump and #clinton and make #America #weird again!!!!
