VIDEO: Jesus Garcia Releases 'The Mighty Mr. Trump' To Get Out The Vote

LGBTQ singer, songwriter, and Broadway alum Jesus Garcia has released a new song and video to encourage the public to participate in next week's presidential election. Garcia, a Tony Award Honoree for his leading role in Baz Luhrmann's La Boheme on Broadway, is sharing "The Mighty Mr. Trump," available now on iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify, and more.

Inspired by the protest songs of the 60s and 70s, especially those by Bob Dylan, Garcia's tune hopes to inspire the public to vote in the upcoming election. 20% of all proceeds will be donated to ACLU in support of their work toward justice and equality.
