Estate of George Harrison Slams Trump For Using Here Comes The Sun

The estate of George Harrison has ripped Donald Trump a new arsehole after the failed businessman wannabe ruler used George’s Beatles’ classic ‘Here Comes The Sun’ at his Republic rally this week.

From the official George Harrison Twitter account, run by the estate, “The unauthorised use of #HereComestheSun at the #RNCunCLE is offensive & against the wishes of the George Harrison estate”.

They followed up “If it had been Beware of Darkness, then we may have approved it! #TrumpYourself”.

Soul star Eric Benet summed up Trump’s speech perfectly. “I gave it 4 out of 5 swastikas,” he said.
