Lyrics
[Note: Donald Trump is in red, Kamala Harris is in light blue, Theodore Roosevelt is in brown, and Joe Biden is in blue.]
Donald Trump:
I've got the best wordplays, ask my supporters.
I've got more dis abilities than a New York Times reporter!
You're a scam, your whole nomination is a hoax!
Your party is so pro-choice, they aborted a state's right to vote!
You pencil pushing pussy bows, think you can scare me with prison?
Get your mugshot, then your mug shot, then come talk to me about convictions!
You're the radical left, you should be embarrassed.
The way you divide our country, I'll call you: Cameltoe Harris!
Your inflation's got our nation clippin' coupons.
Wallets leaking worse than a wet lab in Wuhan!
I had every American's 401k thrivin'.
Stock markets higher than the planes full of migrants you fly in!
And don't even try to deny the cognitive decline you were hiding
Propping up Joe like it was Weekend at Biden's!
I'm here to teach you what losing to a winner feels like.
Ask Pence: I know how to drop a Mike!
Kamala Harris:
I know you're not all ears, but listen up close:
You are JD Vance's beard level weird, you are gross! (Eww!)
You've been bending American decency over a barrel
Giving Lady Liberty the finger like she's E. Jean Carroll!
In that big creepy house with our secrets stacked in piles
From documents to pedos, you spend too much time with files!
Having sleepovers with Laura Loomer, what's going on with ya?
Can't you afford more than Temu Melania? (Hooh!)
You failed in your own city: bank, ballot box, and court.
You're Home Alone 2; you lost in New York!
I was there on January 6th, it wasn't fun for me.
Just like your bowels, I was evacuated suddenly! (Aggh!)
You are history's least hopeful, presidential hopeful,
Moods swinging wildly like stock in Truth Social!
I’m here to build bridges from Texas to Niagara Falls!
She-she-she's even got better Walz!
Donald Trump:
I hope you wrote that commie crap in red 'cause you're taking a huge loss.
This is ending worse for you than Afghanistan did for your boss!
A man handed you everything you ever did.
You couldn't make your own way, you couldn't even make your own kids!
Kamala Harris:
Your mommy was absent when you were just a little baby.
And if she saw you now, she'd wish she were a childless cat lady!
And if your racist landlord daddy wasn't dead,
It'd kill him seeing me living rent free in your head!
Donald Trump:
Well, I know how you failed the bar exam after that.
I guess the half of you whose job it is to rap isn't black!
Kamala Harris:
Oh, good one, you ketchup smelling edgelord!
You rock the beat softer than Stormy Daniel's headboard! (Heheheh!)
Donald Trump:
I can't believe I'm even in a race with this hog!
Hope you wear makeup in Ohio, 'cause they're eating the dogs!
Kamala Harris:
Donald, I'm putting you away like a rapist back in Cali.
You should leave this battle early like the crowds at your rallies!
Donald Trump:
I have all the biggest rallies!
Kamala Harris:
Yeah, well I've got Taylor Swift!
Donald Trump:
You're ugly!
Kamala Harris:
You are ugly!
Donald Trump:
Well, you're a Marxist...
Theodore Roosevelt:
Jumpin' Jesus H. Huckleberry Christ on a crutch!
No one wants to fight about politics this much!
You! Madam red, white and pantsuit!
Don't let getting hired be the greatest thing you ever do!
And you! Sweet baby back ribs up in heaven!
Try not to slide democracy straight to Chapter 11!
I've come here on the back of my musky antlered beast
With a message for whichever one of you sucks the least!
This government was founded on self-evident truths
So keep it of the people, by the people, for the people! Moose!
Trivia
General
- This is the first battle of Season 7 to feature a third-party rapper.
- This battle is the second election-themed battle to release on October 26th, after Donald Trump vs Hillary Clinton.
- This continues the trend of Season 7 battles sharing their release date with a previous battle, after Godzilla vs King Kong broke this trend.
- This is the first election-themed battle since Barack Obama vs Mitt Romney to give both candidates more than two verses.
- After the "Who won? Who's next? You decide!" scene, Roosevelt and his moose can be seen riding over the ERB logo in the next shot.
- Following the credits, there is an advertisement for the battle's sponsor, Ground News. Several former presidents are shown rapping about the service, including Abe Lincoln, John F. Kennedy, Richard Nixon, and Harry S. Truman.
- The release of this battle makes 2024 the first year to have more than one battle released since 2021.
- This is the fourth battle in which an actor appears as multiple rappers, after Steven Spielberg vs Alfred Hitchcock, Donald Trump vs Ebenezer Scrooge, and Rasputin vs Stalin.
- Coincidentally, two of these battles feature their respective actor portraying Trump simultaneously playing another rapper.
Production
- Writing for this battle began long after Tom Cruise vs Evel Knievel and other future battles, despite releasing before them, as indicated by both references to recent events in this battle, and hints for other battles beyond this one in Godzilla vs King Kong.
- Nice Peter is credited as "Joe Biden" in the outro, and EpicLLOYD is credited as both EpicLLOYD and "L. L. Ahlquist".
- This battle had a delayed release on many music streaming services, as it was uploaded to YouTube as soon as it was finished in order to release before the election, and thus the audio had not been sent to streaming services to coincide with a scheduled video release.
Continuity
- This is the third battle in which Trump raps first, and the second battle in a row, making him the first character to go first in two consecutive battle appearances.
- In previous instances with returning title rappers (such as Trump's previous battles and the Darth Vader vs Hitler trilogy), the returning rappers had alternated going first and second in each battle.
- This is the first election battle in which the rapper who goes first goes on to win the election.
- This is the second battle to have a beat solely produced by the ERB crew, after Henry Ford vs Karl Marx.
References
- This battle brings back the theme of having a former president appear as a third-party rapper at the end of a U.S. election-themed battle after no third-parties interrupted Donald Trump vs Joe Biden. However, instead of Abraham Lincoln and his eagle, Theodore Roosevelt arrives on a winged moose. Also, unlike Lincoln, Roosevelt does not slap the presidential candidates (possibly due to sharing an actor with one of them).
- During Roosevelt's opening lines, a honky-tonk like the one from the beat of his own battle can faintly be heard.
- This is the only instance on the ERB channel where Roosevelt appears and does not say "What's up bitches?".
Errors
- All instances of "'cause" in the subtitles erroneously remove the apostrophe.
- During the line "Try not to slide democracy straight to Chapter 11!", "chapter" is uncapitalized in the subtitles.
