“You obviously don’t know my father at all,” the “These Boots Are Made for Walkin’” singer said.
These boots are made for walkin’ — and stomping out MAGA’s delusional fantasies.
Nancy Sinatra, the eldest daughter of the late legendary crooner Frank Sinatra, made it clear earlier this week that she’s not going to let anyone besmirch her father’s good name by linking him in any way to President Donald Trump.
The “Somethin’ Stupid’” singer was minding her own business on X, formerly Twitter, Monday by sharing a Forbes article about her dad, when a random Trump supporter made a bold claim in the comments of her post.
“He’d vote for trump. Woot woot,” the user wrote about the “My Way” singer.
In response to the ignorant comment, Nancy swiftly shut the troll down.
“Not a chance. You obviously don’t know my father at all. Do some homework before you post about him,” she wrote.
Nancy’s blunt words have some merit. According to the 2017 book The Way It Was: My Life with Frank Sinatra by the “Fly Me to the Moon” singer’s former manager, Eliot Weisman, “Ol’ Blue Eyes” wasn’t a fan of the Orange One.
In the book, Weisman explains Frank was set to do a 12-performance stint at Trump’s Taj Mahal casino in Atlantic City in 1990, a deal that was put in place by the venue’s original operator Mark Grossinger Etess. When Etess unexpectedly died in a helicopter crash, Trump swooped in to handle the deal and took issue with Frank’s costs, which he told Weisman were “a little rich,” per the Independent. Trump also wanted to cut Frank’s opening act, his close friend Sammy Davis Jr., who at the time was just diagnosed with cancer.
When Weisman relayed Trump’s demands to Frank, he told his manager he had a simple response to Trump — and that was that he could “go fuck himself.”
Frank offered to deliver the message by phone, but Weisman seemed keen to do it himself, and walked into Trump’s office to mutter a truly iconic line: “Sinatra says go fuck yourself!”
Frank eventually ended up playing at the Sands in Las Vegas instead.
