Donald Trump’s bizarre mashup of a Nickelback music video with a picture of the Bidens golfing has been taken down.
The clip is from the music video of Nickelback’s 2005 hit Photograph, which in recent years has become the subject of a popular meme.
In the music video the band’s lead singer, Chad Kroeger, holds up a picture frame while singing "look at this photograph".
The frame has been edited countless times by Internet users to include different photographs.
Trump’s video opens with a clip of Joe Biden telling journalists: “I’ve never spoke to my son about his overseas business dealings."
It then jumps to a clip of Nickelback’s lead singer holding up a photoshopped frame containing a photo of Joe and his son Hunter golfing with Devon Archer, a former board member of Ukrainian natural gas company Burisma holdings.
However, it was removed within 12 hours of being posted to Twitter with a notice that: “This media has been disabled in response to a report by the copyright owner.”
Trump’s post follows the release of a summary of a phone call between the US President and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in which Trump suggested Zelensky should investigate Hunter.
Democratic presidential nomination frontrunner Joe Biden reacted to the video while on the campaign trial in Reno, Nevada.
"I’m not going anywhere," he said.
"You are not going to destroy me and you are not going to destroy my family.
"I don’t care how much money you spend Mr President, or how dirty your tactics get, Trump knows there are no truth in the charges against me, none, zero.”
A Twitter spokeswoman said it responded “to valid copyright complaints sent to us by a copyright owner or their authorised representatives”.
The Standard has contacted Nickelback’s record company BMG Media for comment.
