Trump's playlist: Que mala Kamala
Televised debates and golf course gunshots aside, here's a fresh - and much more cheerful - example of Donald Trump's ability to grab our attention.
US Republican presidential candidate and former president Donald Trump slips in a cheeky one with this 30-second?'Que mala Kamala' number - 'que mala' means 'how bad' in Spanish, and Kamala is the first name of the current vice-president, Kamala Harris, who is taking over the Democratic Party ticket from incumbent Joe Biden in the November 2024 ballot.
The catchy Latino beat will bring a smile to Trump fans and perhaps even beyond as the ever-surprising 78-year-old pursues his path to the presidential poll with what has become trademark humour, riffing visually off VP Harris's equally trademark laugh.
The ad launched a few days after Trump and Harris faced off in a televised debate which brought reactions ranging from comments along the lines of 'she wiped the floor with him' to claims that her earrings were earbuds designed to have her lines and responses fed directly to her during the debate.
It also comes after President Biden was apparently filmed popping on a MAGA (Make America Great Again) baseball cap at a gathering and joking with those present in another surprising twist - the MAGA slogan is associated with Trump.
