Trump’s Montana Rally Hits A Sour Note With Titanic Song: Internet Seizes On ‘Sinking’ Irony

Former President Donald Trump’s rally in Bozeman, Montana on Friday has unexpectedly fueled a wave of conspiracy theories and social media chatter, all thanks to a curious choice of music. The rally, which featured Trump as the main speaker, played Celine Dion’s iconic ballad “My Heart Will Go On” from the movie Titanic just before his entrance.

The choice of song, which famously accompanies the depiction of a sinking ship in the 1997 film, seemed to strike a chord with viewers and commentators alike. The irony was not lost on many who saw the song as a metaphorical nod to the state of Trump’s campaign.

A tweet from X/Twitter captured the sentiment perfectly: “Omg, Trump’s rally in Montana is showing a video of Celine singing ‘My Heart Will Go On’ from the film Titanic. Is the rally coordinator trolling Trump?” This comment reflects the growing belief that the music choice might have been an intentional or unintentional act of sabotage.

The social media response was swift and humorous. One commenter remarked, “Seems to me it’s a cry for help from a sinking ship. Has anyone checked on his campaign managers, are they being held hostage or maybe water boarded?”

Despite the speculation, it’s unclear whether the Trump campaign had permission to use the song publicly. Dion’s hit was also played at previous Trump rallies in November 2020, January 2021, and June 2021. A 2016 media report revealed that Dion had turned down Trump’s request to perform at his inauguration, suggesting a complex history between the artist and the former president’s campaign.

The uproar over the song follows another recent controversy involving Trump’s use of music. French singer Woodkid criticized Trump for using his track “Run Boy Run” in a campaign video. Woodkid, a proud LGBT+ musician, expressed his discontent on X, stating, “Run Boy Run is a LGBT+ anthem written by me, a proud LGBT+ musician. How ironic. Once again, I never gave permission for the use of my music on that @realDonaldTrump film.”

As the campaign trail continues, the Trump team might want to reconsider their choice of soundtrack, as they navigate the turbulent waters of this election season.
