President Trump on Wednesday tried to use music from the often-mocked rock band Nickelback in a bizarre attempt to amplify his widely debunked corruption allegations against former Vice President Joe Biden. In an afternoon tweet, the president tweeted out a video that featured the band’s song “Photograph,” along with a photo of Biden and his son Hunter. The video featured Nickelback lead singer Chad Kroeger holding up a photo, which had been edited to show a 2014 photo of the Bidens golfing with Devon Archer, an executive at Ukrainian gas company Burisma Holdings, where Trump has claimed the Bidens engaged in a corruption cover-up. However, by Thursday morning, the video has been removed and now only shows the message: “This media has been disabled in response to a report by the copyright owner.”
