Presidential candidate, real estate mogul, and reality television personality Donald Trump is taking his beef with Neil Young to the next level.
Trump used one of Young's songs, "Rockin' In The Free World," as entrance music at his presidential campaign announcement on June 16. Afterwards, Young's manager released a careful statement saying he did not authorize Trump to make his song a part of the campaign.
"Neil Young, a Canadian citizen, is a supporter of Bernie Sanders for president of the United States of America," Young's manager said.
On Wednesday, Trump fired off a number of tweets criticizing Young for being a "total hypocrite." He claimed Young attempted to do a business deal with him and even recently invited him to a concert. Trump included a photo of Young in his office and partial images of documents as proof of his claim the singer recently asked him for money for "an audio deal:"

Is Trump this petty... yes he is
Glad you liked it. :-)
Neil has always been one ugly guy. Doesn’t seem to have improved any in that photo.
Trump is too busy arguing on Twitter to even try and be Presidential
His music sucks too.
Dude.
That's political art. You have talent.
Wasn’t there a band called ... Donald & the Trumps... no.. maybe there should have been... lol
And, there was The Donald.
Only The Dude was cool.
That was kind of you but it’s not my work. I was simply sharing it, :-P
Most Republicans backtrack under pressure, or "clarify". Trump counterattacks. I admire that.
I haven’t liked NY since the 70s. But I can see why he wouldn’t like someone using his song w/o his permission. I wouldn’t want Hillary using mine.
“It’s like professional wrestling, grudge matches, trash talking, and heroes becoming villains.”
Sounds like the “Jerry Springer Show”!
So, does Trump own Neil Young now?
Arguing with the peanut gallery on Twitter is the least Presidential things ever.
Trump can send the Joker a nickel for royalties.
Next he will be in a Twitter fight with a 12-year old girl
Point taken. But the days of decent behavior from the left are over. The MSM's treatment of Palin is just one example of that. So any GOP candidate who comes out swinging has my admiration, even if that swinging is wild and "undignified".
Neil Young gets taken down on the regular. “I heard Ol’ Neil put her down...”
Agreed. The left are bullies and hypocrites so I am glad he is punching back asap and exposing them. They are being made examples of right up front.
