Carrie Underwood And Brad Paisley Zing Donald Trump At The CMAs

Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley couldnt resist poking fun at President Donald Trump at Wednesday nights Country Music Awards in Nashville, Tennessee.

The co-hosts ignored the Country Music Associations plea to make the awards ceremony apolitical, and sang a parody song about Trumps Twitter habits.

Now Brad, I dont know if youve heard about this, but the CMA has given us some guidelines with specific topics to avoid, Underwood joked as they opened the televised event. So we cant be doing any silly little songs because this years show is a politics-free zone.

Are you kidding me? Thats not fair, replied Paisley, who suggested singing tracks with lyrics including She wrote a memoir, Hillarys Back, Stand by your Manafort, and Hold me closer, Bernie Sanders .

Paisley eventually persuaded Underwood to join him in performing a spoof version of her Grammy Award-winning hit Before He Cheats.

The words to the reworked Before He Tweets were:

Right now, hes probably in his PJs, watching cable news, reaching for his cell phone. Right now, hes probably asking Siri, how in the hell do you spell Pocahontas.
In the middle of the night from the privacy of a gold-plated White House toilet seat, he writes liddle Bob Corker, NFL and covfefe. And its fun to watch, yeah, thats for sure, til little Rocket Man starts a nuclear war. And then maybe next time hell think before he tweets.

The song received mixed reviews on Twitter:
