Why Did Trump Choose This Song For His Inauguration???

kind of makes sense now why he chose this song, for the asshole he is.

Lyrics to My Way.

[Verse 1]
And now, the end is near
And so I face the final curtain
My friend, I'll say it clear
I'll state my case, of which I'm certain
I've lived a life that's full
I traveled each and every highway
And more, much more than this, I did it my way

[Verse 2]
Regrets, I've had a few
But then again, too few to mention
I did what I had to do and saw it through without exemption
I planned each charted course, each careful step along the byway
And more, much more than this, I did it my way

I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all and I stood tall and did it my way

[Verse 4]
I've loved, I've laughed and cried
I've had my fill, my share of losing
And now, as tears subside, I find it all so amusing
To think I did all that
And may I say, not in a shy way
Oh, no, oh, no, not me, I did it my way

[Verse 5]
For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught
To say the things he truly feels and not the words of one who kneels
The record shows I took the blows and did it my way
Yes, it was my way

Shuffling off the mortal coil without one contribution to humanity or the common good.

Doesn't have the blood or the nerve for it. He wants to PLAY being a gangster.
I wonder what gangster caught up with don and described the living hell of a death he'd suffer through should he not pay what he owes? The shark story always comes to mind at this point in the thinking.
