Singer-songwriter Noah Kahan has publicly criticised the White House after it used one of his songs in a promotional video for Donald Trump that featured footage themed around American-made cars. Kahan objected to his music being used to endorse the administration without his permission, adding his name to a growing list of musicians who have pushed back against politicians and government bodies using their work for political messaging.

The White House video reportedly paired Kahan's music with imagery celebrating American car manufacturing as part of wider pro-Trump promotional content. Kahan responded angrily, making clear he did not authorise the use of his song and did not want his work associated with the video's political message, though the full details of his statement and any request for its removal are not confirmed in the available reporting.
