DETAILS ABOUT THIS TRACK:

The track then goes on to reference and excerpt 3 pieces by the Progressive rock band Pink Floyd, 2 of which are from their seminal 1979 iconic rock opera, 'The Wall' many themes of which bear a resonant similarity to 'The Trump Story'. The first piece used from that album is the song, 'Is There Anybody Out There' which will be reprised much later in this work. Over this piece, is the piece's creator, Pink Floyd frontman Roger Waters commenting on Trump and his policies.

The second piece from 'The Wall' that is used is of course is the song, 'Comfortably Numb' for which only the background music is used. Over this is a piece on Trump's following that was made before the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election. The piece is from CBS Sunday Morning and is called 'Trump voters explain their unshakable faith' and is available here:

Also heard in this composition, right before the 'Comfortably Numb' music starts, is the piece 'Get Your Hands Off My Desert' from the Pink Floyd work, 'The Final Cut' which was, in a way, an outtake reel or followup to 'The Wall'.

At the end of the track is an excerpt from the 1979 film 'Apocalypse Now'.
