Gondeliers in Venice are known for seranading their passengers as they glide through the canals of Venice.
Even in Italy, people are paying attention to the US Presidential election, and here it's no different, as these gondeliers express their preferences in song! Destined to be a classic.

OH THAT IS SO FUNNY!!!The Italians will make him feel so at home. I love going to Italy on holiday as it is so laidback there- and the lifestyle is beautiful for holidays whenever I need to get away. I want to go to Venice on a romantic break but with my sweetie - and he can sing to me in a Gondoler while I write poetry.

We wish you luck with your Prime Minister. His ****** comments were pitiful and heard around the world. Italy is in our prayers. It's clear your politicians run Italy as though it were a third world country. Perhaps you too can change your government. Well ok, it may seem impossible but democracy starts from the grassroots up. You can do it!
