Candidates Get Poetic In Bad Lip Reading Of The Presidential Debate

"I am not brave, I am a merchant."

Who knew that the presidential debates could be so poetic?

The candidates attempt to outwit each other through the medium of verse in Bad Lip Reading’s hilarious new video.

Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton appears to recite surreal pieces such as “Because Zombies” and “Stealthily Bobby” in the spoof slam, which uses footage from the second debate.

Her GOP rival, Donald Trump, meanwhile, goes slightly darker with his telling of the sinister “Mike the Merry Cricket” and “My Garden.”

“It was not good in my garden that year, it was not good in my garden,” he appears to say at one point. Trump later adds, “I am not brave, I am a merchant.”

Nope. Us neither.

Check it out in the clip above.

Editor’s note: Donald Trump regularly incites political violence and is a serial liar, rampant xenophobe, racist, misogynist and birther who has repeatedly pledged to ban all Muslims — 1.6 billion members of an entire religion — from entering the U.S.
