Jewish comedian, actor and performer Randy Rainbow set Twitter abuzz on Aug. 29 after posting a musical parody referring to President Donald Trump as “Cheeto Christ Stupid Czar,” a parody on Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice’s Tony Award-winning 1970 rock opera, “Jesus Christ Superstar.” 

“You guys we can move mountains,” the LGBTQ advocate tweeted later in the day after seeing his video was trending around the country. 

Rainbow is known for his satirical musical parodies including “Randy Rainbow is Dating Mel Gibson” but started doing political parodies in the lead up to the 2016 elections. Some of his more recent parodies include “Cruella DeVos” and “The Mueller Blues.” 

In his latest video, Rainbow kicks off the conversation in a mock studio interview with Trump where he touches on Trump’s recent statements about being “King of the Jews,” the president’s claim that he is the “Chosen One;” and his trip to the G7 Summit.

“Well, it is a special day indeed as I am joined now by the divine Miss T, our lord and savior, king of the Jews…am I leaving anything out?” Rainbow asks as the video cuts to clips of Trump.

“The news about me is largely phony,” Trump says before Rainbow breaks into songs from “Jesus Christ Superstar.”

Watch the entire parody filled with Jewish jokes and political jabs below:
