In the early 1990s, Donald Trump was a New York real estate mogul known as much for his personal life as for his business deals. That same year, AC/DC turned one of his most talked-about scandals into a cheeky Christmas rock song.
While AC/DC was putting the finishing touches on their comeback album, The Razor’s Edge, Trump’s love life dominated the news. His affair with model Marla Maples gave the band just the kind of tabloid fodder that became “Mistress for Christmas.”
Angus Young and his bandmates began imagining the holidays from the perspective of a glamorous socialite. The lyrics practically wrote themselves, with the rock group fully embracing an over-the-top, tongue-in-cheek style, including lines like:
“I like female form in minimum dress / Money to spend with a capital S / Get a date with the woman in red / Wanna be in Heaven with three in a bed.”
As Young told Guitar World in 2011, “You always have a bit of the 'ol fool-around now and again,” describing the track as the “funniest song on [The Razor’s Edge].”
He confirmed, “That song's about Donald Trump. He was big news at the time, so we thought we'd have a bit of fun and humor with it.”
Released in September 1990, The Razor’s Edge marked AC/DC’s triumphant return to the rock spotlight. While songs like “Fire Your Guns” and “Moneytalks” were celebrated by fans, the playful holiday track drew mixed opinions — and stands out as one of the few songs they’ve never taken to the stage.
While the president hasn’t publicly commented on the song or its connection to his personal life, there appears to be no tension between him and the band. AC/DC’s music continues to play a role in his public appearances, with hits like “Thunderstruck” regularly featured at rallies.
Even at the 2024 Republican National Convention, Trump made his entrance to the iconic track “Back in Black.”
