"PAYIN'": The True Cost of Trump's Trade Wars & Tariffs (Kesha parody)

A new animated musical asking the critical question: Who is really "Payin'" for the tariffs, trade wars, and deregulation of the Trump administration? Watch this powerful political commentary told from a Canadian perspective.

"Payin'" is an animated short film featuring a song inspired by Kesha's "Praying", visualizing the economic and political destruction caused by the policies of the Donald Trump administration—impacting not just the United States, but the world.

Told through striking claymation-style traditional and AI visuals, this video examines the strain on international relations, the environment, and domestic economies caused by:

The US-Canada trade war and escalating tariffs

The rising cost of living and economic anxiety (00:50)

The rollback of EPA regulations and climate accords (00:47, 02:26)

Aggressive ICE tactics and immigration policies (01:08)

The erosion of democratic norms and the Constitution (00:08)

This animation is a testament to resilience and a critical look at the true costs of these policies as the 2025 election approaches.
