An American church choir sings the “Make America Great Again” song at a rally of US President Donald Trump.
Inspired by his popular 2016 campaign motto still in use today, the song was performed by a Southern Baptist church at the “Celebrate Freedom Rally” at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC, on Saturday.
The Dallasite First Baptist Church Choir sang, “Lift the torch of freedom all across the land / Step into the future joining hand in hand.”
The lyrics, however, ran counter to some of Trump’s policies, including calls for a “complete shutdown” of Muslims entering the US as well as building a wall on the Mexican border to prevent refugees from entering the country.
