Former president Donald Trumps walk-on music during the third night of the Republican National Convention has raised some eyebrows among Joe Bidens team.

After Trump entered the Milwaukee event to a version of the James Brown classic Its a Mans Mans Mans World on Wednesday, his successors reelection campaign took to social media with an interesting observation about the song choice.

Reminding voters about the Republicans record on reproductive rights, a Biden campaign account wrote on social media , Trump, who unleashed abortion bans that force teenage girls to give birth against their will, walks out at the RNC to Its A Mans World.

The former president has long boasted about helping to overturn the Supreme Courts 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling, which for decades guaranteed abortion rights nationwide, by stacking the court with conservative justices during his time in office.

Listeners have sometimes debated whether Browns soul anthem is sexist.

Though the lyrics of the 1966 tune attribute the bulk of human achievement to men, Brown also sings: This is a mans world. But it wouldnt be nothing, nothing without a woman or a girl.

Still, its hard not to read into the song choice in the context of the GOP.

Trump is known for being particular about the music that surrounds him.

Earlier this year, Axios reported that the Republican presidential nominee hand-selects the soundtrack for his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida.

The outlet wrote in April that Trump controls the surround-sound stereo system on Mar-a-Lagos patio with a big iPad and its Spotify list.

Regulars jokingly call it the Deejay T performance, Axios added.

Wednesdays walk-on tune is said to be one of Trumps favorite songs.

In footage circulating online , he talks about his love for Its a Mans Mans Mans World while playing a version of the song on his tablet as he rides around in a golf cart.
