This isn’t the first time the “These Boots Are Made for Walkin'” singer has reminded fans that her father, the singer of hits like “My Way” and “That’s Life,” was not a fan of Trump.

The song begins with the lyric: “And now, the end is near.”

However, she later wished Trump well, saying: “I don’t believe anyone tries to be a bad president.”

In 2020, Trump paid tribute to Frank Sinatra in a speech and suggested including him in a planned memorial to American heroes.
