Pharrell Williams and Sony have sent a Cease and Desist Letter to the President after he played his hit song "Happy" at a campaign rally in Indiana just hours after the Pittsburgh synagogue massacre!!

The triple platimum singer's song was played just hours after far-right winger 56 y/o Robert Bayers shot 11 people and injured 6 others at Tree of Life Synagogue.

He has expressed his anger over the decison and lawyers have sent the letter to stop his song from being played at any future events

It says in the letter "On the day of the mass murder of 11 human beings at the hands of a deranged 'nationalist' you played his song Happy to a crowd at a political event in Indiana. There was nothing 'happy' abou the tragedy inflicted upon our country on Saturday and no permission was granted for your use of this song for your purpose"

Howard King says Pharrell will grant Trump permission to use his songs for use and the use of his song without his consent constitutes both copyright and trademark infringement.

Despite the tragedy, Trump is not stopping his campaign style rally for Republicans around the country as he plans to shove 11 stops in 6 DAYS to ensure Republicans control the House but he concedes that they will likely lose. During the rally, he jokes that he almost canceled the event because he had a 'bad hair day'and not the massacre in Pittsburgh. Later in the evening he took to twitter while watching Game 4 of the series and questioned pitching changes.

He will blame the loss on the fact that he is not on the ticket for Republicans losing the house.

Do you think playing this song is in bad taste given the recent tragedy?

I don't know how the Trump staff thinks anyone except Ted Nugent would let him play their music.

Maybe Pharrell would have preferred if Trump played Pharrell's rape anthem "Blurred Lines" instead? Seems like those two have a lot in common.

Because nobody is allowed to be happy on the same day as a tragedy? Get the hell outta here.

Personally, I wish a cease & desist notice regarding that song would be issued to every radio station out there so I wouldn't have to hear it ever again.

Believe what? The hyperbole that I only listed one conservative musician that came to mind right off the bat? Most musicians aren't conservative and probably don't want their music being used while he promotes evil.

What evil is this? Trump doesn't seem to be evil, just self-serving.
