Political satire, but make it jazzy. Randy Rainbow is once again using the power of song to tear into Donald Trump, this time reimagining Cole Porter‘s classic “It’s De-Lovely” to say that he thinks the president is anything but.

The parody posted Tuesday (June 30) opens with the musical comedian portraying a news correspondent, editing clips of Trump from real interviews to make it look like the pair are having a conversation. After questioning the twice-impeached POTUS about his widely opposed handling of the Iran war, the setting shifts into a jazz club as Rainbow, wearing a retro tux, breaks into a song titled “He’s De-Mented.”

“This dumbf–k tyrant seems to be the tyrant-ithesis of sanity,” he croons to the tune of Porter’s famous melody. “His screws are loose, his tangents roam/ The lights are on but no one’s home/He’s defective, he’s destructive, he’s demented.”

Rainbow — who’s made countless viral song parodies making fun of the president — goes on to change the original song’s lyrics to take aim at Trump’s old age and “decrepit” appearance. “It’s clear that Grandpa’s off his pills,” the Internet personality sings. “He can hear that bipartisan fear/ They’re united left and right: He’s in decline/ Time to resign.”

The video comes after the politician’s approval rating for the second-to-last week of June was calculated at just 34%, according to Reuters. Many of Trump’s past supporters in the conservative commentary landscape have turned against him, taking issue specifically with his approach to the conflict in Iran. Two months ago, Trump threatened that “a whole civilization will die tonight” if Iran failed to agree to a ceasefire deal; at press time, the U.S. is still in slowly progressing peace talks with Iran.
