How I Met Your Mother star Josh Radnor has put part of Donald Trump's Tulsa rally speech to music.
The actor, who portrayed Ted Mosby on the hit American sitcom shared the clip to his 626,000 Twitter followers writing: "I set Trump’s insane Tulsa rally ramp speech to music. He is not a good lyricist."

While the speech performed at the rally went on for almost two hours, Radnor focused on a section of the President's speech that explained why he walked down a ramp the way he did at a previous outing.

Addressing the crowd at the rally, Trump said: “I just saluted almost 600 times. I just made a big speech. I sat for other speeches. I’m being baked. I’m being baked like a cake,”
“I said, ‘General, there’s no way I can make it down that ramp without falling on my ass, General. I have no railing’.”

The president held his self-described campaign relaunch in Tulsa as the nation grappled with surging coronavirus infections, the worst unemployment since the Great Depression and sweeping civil unrest with the rally having a lower-than-expected turnout.
