The original was crafted by the 1988 campaign of George H. W. Bush, now considered a member of the Republican Party's polite aristocrat wing—that is, the folks who use the inside voice while trying to scare the bejeezus out of old white people, and, consequently, get them to the voting booth. There is no inside voice for Donald Trump, who released a racist bullhorn of a political ad Wednesday, a neat encapsulation of his party's strategy for the homestretch of the 2018 midterms.

Much of this is thanks to Spike Jonze's music video, which acted as a parody of '70s cop shows, and gave the song its iconic middle-finger attitude.
