Nancy Sinatra made her feelings clear after President Donald Trump shared a clip of her late father performing one of his most iconic songs. The singer’s daughter took to social media to condemn the post, while also addressing what could be done about it.
Nancy Sinatra calls out Donald Trump for using Frank’s song
Nancy Sinatra has publicly slammed President Donald Trump for sharing a clip of her father, Frank Sinatra, performing “My Way.” The 85-year-old took to X on Sunday, April 19, calling Trump’s post “a sacrilege.”
Trump, 79, posted a nearly four-minute clip of Frank Sinatra’s live performance of “My Way” on Truth Social on Saturday, April 18. The president did not add any context to the post, sparking widespread speculation about his intentions.
When a fan asked Nancy if anything could be done about Trump’s post, she responded directly. “Unfortunately, no. The only people who can do something are the publishers,” she wrote via X.
Nancy also reposted comments from fans highlighting her father’s feelings toward the president. “Nancy Sinatra will confirm again that her father loathed Donald Trump,” one reposted comment read. Another fan added, “Trump may love Sinatra, but Sinatra did not love Trump.” Frank Sinatra died at age 82 in 1998.
Some users speculated the post signaled declining health, which has been rumored in recent weeks. White House communications director Steven Cheung denied claims that Trump was hospitalized earlier this month. Others connected the post to ongoing military operations in Iran, which began in February when the U.S. and Israel launched airstrikes on the country.
One user noted Trump has made three posts in roughly six days built around themes of legacy, morality, and reflection. The user called it “a pattern worth naming,” adding that “the context underneath” includes the fact that Trump turns 80 in June. He remains the oldest person ever to serve as U.S. president, a record he previously took from himself.
