It’s no secret: there are a huge number of pop-culture icons who really dislike Donald Trump and never want him to become President of the United States.
Eminem is the most recent person to come out as anti-Trump, releasing the almost eight-minute song "Campaign Speech". At the 3.22 mark, Shady begins his laying into the ex-Apprentice star.
Eminem's 'Campaign Speech' lyrics on Trump
Run the faucet, I'ma dunk
A bunch of Trump supporters underwater
Snuck up on 'em in Ray Bans in a gray van with a spray tan
It's a wrap, like an Ace bandage
Don't-give-a-fuck persona, to my last DNA strand
E&J in the waistband, at the VMAs with the stagehand
She wants kielbasa, pre-arrange an escape plan
Three-inch blade on point, like a See-and-Say
Consider me a dangerous man
But you should be afraid of this dang candidate
You say Trump don't kiss ass like a puppet
'Cause he runs his campaign with his own cash for the fundin'
And that's what you wanted
A fuckin' loose cannon who's blunt with his hand on the button
Who doesn't have to answer to no one—great idea!

Meanwhile, late night host Stephen Colbert and Trevor Noah have both lambasted Trump following the third presidential debate. Both criticised him for seemingly dismissing democracy.
