Singer Nancy Sinatra called President Donald Trump's reference to her father Frank Sinatra's song "My Way" a "sacrilege."
On Saturday, Trump posted a video to Truth Social of Frank Sinatra singing his classic song in light of his renewed threats to destroy Iranian infrastructure for the country allegedly violating a ceasefire agreement.
The song begins with the opening lines, "And now/the end is near/And so I face/the final curtain" which resemble Trump's past threats to destroy the nation.

"Omg, @NancySinatra will not be happy about this. Trump goes against everything that Frank stood for. He was a big champion for equality and supported the Civil Rights movement," one person commented on X.
The 85-year-old "These Boots Are Made for Walkin'" singer later responded to this comment, adding, "This is a sacrilege."
She reposted users' comments criticizing Trump's post and use of the song, insisting Frank Sinatra would not agree with Trump's politics.

"This is just sickening. Frank Sinatra would never have allowed that monster in the White House to use his music or put his lyrics in his mouth. Sinatra was a man of honor, a man who never had to lie about who he truly was because he WAS the greatest. trump is a loser," another wrote.
Sinatra also responded to a fan asking if she could do anything to stop Trump from using the song.
"Unfortunately no. The only people who can do something are the publishers," she responded.
