Green Day swap American Idiot lyrics in swipe at Donald Trump during New Year’s Eve show

This is the moment Green Day changed the lyrics to one of their most well-known songs in a swipe at Donald Trump live on air.

The band made the change during a televised New Year's Eve performance on Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve with Ryan Seacrest on Sunday (31 December).

Lead singer Billie Joe Armstrong swapped the line "I'm not a part of a redneck agenda" for "I'm not a part of the MAGA agenda" in the hit song American Idiot.
