At one time there were original campaign songs issued for presidential elections. JFK had Frank Sinatra do one. In 1964, Carol Channing performed a version of Hello Dolly! at a rally. Ed Ames (Ames Brother, My Cup Runeth Over, The Indian on Daniel Boone, Expert Hatchet thrower on Johnny Carson) recorded it for the 45.
Ed Ames - Hello Lyndon! (1964)
Since then, Nixon did one (Nixon's the One). It became a camp hit during Watergate. Nobody has done is since save for a Thurston Moore one for Bernie Sanders. I wish Trump would do one. Perhaps performed by his untalented family. I would buy one. It could be a tax write off.
