Is Donald Trump Channelling Elvis?





This is one of the delights of Being Gen X. If you first got to listen to the music and then subsequently get to see the visual, it adds a special layer of nostalgia and meaning that is impossible to describe to younger people who grew up with Youtube and full media or multimedia as it once was called.

I'm posting this Elvis clip as it claims to be new video footage though I doubt it is. However it is notable for a drunk and barely able to breath Elvis launching into song and smashing it out of the park.

I also find the first few seconds of Elvis in the video remind me of Trumps body language.
