Can Donald Trump make use of songs against an entertainer's will?

.WOODY GUTHRIE'S "equipment" killed fascists-- approximately America's excellent dust-bowl balladeer created on his acoustic guitar. Port White's electric machine "files suit fascists", wrote the frontman of The White Lines on Instagram on September 9th. The "fascist" is Donald Trump, that lately utilized the band's most popular song, "Seven Nation Army", in a project online video. Mr White wishes him to stop. He joins a long listing of artists who contest Mr Trump using their music: Abba, Celine Dion, Beyoncu00e9, Foo Fighters, the estates of Isaac Hayes and Sinu00e9ad O'Connor and Johnny Marr of The Smiths-- as well as those are actually just the objectors from this year. (Our experts've produced a playlist of Trump-appropriated tunes.) Can they switch the popular music off?
