Trump's notes turned into Morrissey song at Patton Oswalt's request (listen)

Photos of President Donald Trump‘s handwritten notes from a press appearance — that he wrote in giant block letters with what looks like a wide-tip Sharpie — took the internet by storm on Wednesday, inspiring countless memes and a downloadable font. His words  (I WANT NOTHING / I WANT NOTHING / I WANT NO QUID PRO QUO / TELL ZELLINSKY / TO DO THE RIGHT THING / THIS IS THE LAST WORD / OF THE PRES / OF THE U . S .”) also inspired a lot of music.

Yesterday, Patton Oswalt tweeted the picture writing simply, “Morrissey voice,” and a couple people were up to the challenge. BenJamminAsh offers up this one that uses Queen is Dead-era Smiths as inspiration. It’s pretty great:
