Joe Scarborough, host of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” released a music video to his Facebook page Wednesday mocking Republican nominee Donald Trump.

The song is titled “Amnesty Don,” which is the nickname Scarborough started calling Trump Monday. You can watch the full music video here.

The song is full of attacks against Trump, including the line, “from out of the West rode a soft and flaccid man,” and refers to his “orange tan,” and “small hands.”

Scarborough hits Trump for promising to build a wall along the border with Mexico, but then backtracking on that promise. “He said he’s build a wall for us, but than he up and ran.” The song also repeats the verse, “When the cowboys smell the dirty con, or Amnesty Don.”

The release of the video comes nine days after Trump threatened to “tell the real story” behind Scarborough and co-host Mika Brzezinski, alluding to past reports that the two are dating. The tweet from Trump sparked a back and forth between the two men.

The release of the video is a new low for what was once a very cordial relationship. Early on in the 2016 presidential campaign, Scarborough and Brzezinski were criticized for being too cozy with Trump. Any thoughts that Scarborough was too friendly with the Republican nominee were dashed in early February, when Scarborough lambasted Trump for refusing to disavow comments made by former Ku Klux Klan Imperial Wizard David Duke.

According to CNN, Scarborough worked on the lyrics to “Amnesty Don” after his morning cable show Monday, recorded the vocals and instruments with his band that afternoon, and completed the music and video production Tuesday.

Trump has yet to respond to the music video.
