Anti-Trump folk song with Prince reference

Folk singer-songwriter Steve Poltz recently put out a song called "Hey God I'll Trade You Donald Trump for Leonard Cohen." In addition to Leonard Cohen, the song also mentions a number of other recently deceased public figures who Poltz would also trade for Trump, including Prince. There's a brief story about the song and an embedded music video here:

Poltz performed the song yesterday at the Kansas City Folk Festival and got a great response, just tremendous, the best response ever. (Ahem. Seriously, though, it went over well.)


Poltz has also covered "Little Red Corvette" in concert over the years.
