From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

It’s no secret: there are a huge number of pop-culture icons who really dislike Donald Trump and never want him to become President of the United States.

Robert De Niro recently unleashed a tirade of damning words against the Republican presidential candidate; the likes of Robert Downey Jr, Scarlett Johansson, and Mark Ruffalo appeared in Joss Whedon’s anti-Trump video; even Will.i.am released a song about his derogatory comments about women.

Eminem is the most recent person to come out as anti-Trump, releasing the almost eight-minute song "Campaign Speech". At the 3.22 mark, Shady begins his laying into the ex-Apprentice star.

Eminem's 'Campaign Speech' lyrics on Trump

Run the faucet, I'ma dunk

A bunch of Trump supporters underwater

Snuck up on 'em in Ray Bans in a gray van with a spray tan

It's a wrap, like an Ace bandage

Don't-give-a-fuck persona, to my last DNA strand

E&J in the waistband, at the VMAs with the stagehand

She wants kielbasa, pre-arrange an escape plan

Three-inch blade on point, like a See-and-Say

Consider me a dangerous man

But you should be afraid of this dang candidate

You say Trump don't kiss ass like a puppet

'Cause he runs his campaign with his own cash for the fundin'

And that's what you wanted

A fuckin' loose cannon who's blunt with his hand on the button

Who doesn't have to answer to no one—great idea!

That’s where the Trump bashing ends, the rest of the track meandering from one topic to another, including Molly Qerim, Trayvon Martin, and the Apple Watch.

Meanwhile, late night host Stephen Colbert and Trevor Noah have both lambasted Trump following the third presidential debate. Both criticised him for seemingly dismissing democracy.
