Twitter removed a video on Tuesday from one of President Donald Trump’s tweets after receiving a copyright complaint from singer Eddy Grant, whose hit song “Electric Avenue” played in the clip, NBC News reported. The rather perplexing video depicted a cartoon Biden driving an old-fashioned railroad handcar while a train bearing Trump’s campaign logo zipped through an empty town. “Electric Avenue” — a 1983 song that Grant, a Guyanese-British singer, penned about the 1981 Brixton race riots in London — plays in the background. It’s not clear, however, what the song’s relevance is to the content of Trump’s video. But the clip remained on Trump’s Twitter feed until the platform pulled it on Tuesday.
