Rick Wilson, the co-founder of the left-wing Lincoln Project campaign group, said the track sounded like “a wild hog and a sack of rusty cans being thrown into an industrial wood chipper”.

Jaymes, a 22-year-old artist from Kentucky, said she was recording the song when Trump asked to join her to sing.

Trump, 41, formerly Lara Yunaska, is a graduate of North Carolina State University. She spent three years doing odd jobs – personal trainer, bartender and waitress – before moving to New York to attend the French Culinary Institute.

She became a pastry chef before switching careers and working as a producer for the CBS television program Inside Edition. She met the former president’s son Eric in a nightclub in 2008.

Lara Trump has since become a fixture on Donald Trump campaign teams alongside her husband. In February she was announced as the Republican National Convention’s co-chairman.

Last year, she released a cover of Tom Petty’s song I Won’t Back Down, which she claimed had been “shadowbanned” by iTunes.

She performed the song live on air in an interview with Sky News Australia, singing the lyrics: “You can stand me up at the gates of hell but I won’t back down”.

Stephen Colbert, host of The Late Show, later commented: “Well I’ve never been to the gates of hell, but now I’m pretty sure I know what they sound like.”
