Green Day fans have being mocking Donald Trump‘s supporters on TikTok after they used ‘American Idiot’ to soundtrack their videos.In a series of clips shared on the site, pro-Trump TikTok users have been using the band’s 2004 anti-Bush anthem in an attempt to hit out at liberals.One video from user Candace Kettlehut, for instance, sees her interpreting the line “one nation controlled by the media” to be referring to the likes of the New York Times and CNN.And as the song hits the chorus, one word pointedly appears on the screen: “Socialism.”“Green Day knew it all along, since 2004!” Kettlehut captioned her video.But TikTok users have rightly pointed out that her bizarre take couldn’t be further from the truth.
