Donald Trump joined the masses in mourning Charlie Daniels on Tuesday, but his thoughts on the matter drew some ire. After Daniels suffered a stroke and died on Monday, numerous members of the public reminisced about his work as the frontman of The Charlie Daniels Band, with hits like “The Devil Went Down to Georgia” and “Long Haired Country Boy.” Trump did, as well, by sending out a three-sentence tweet on the matter.

He wrote that “we will miss GREAT Country Rocker.” He also gave condolences to his family and claimed he loved Daniels’ music. However, many online doubted the New York City native’s sincerity when that last statement came in.

Upon hearing that the POTUS claimed he was a fan of The Charlie Daniels Band, they challenged him to “name a song.” (As of press time, Trump has not elaborated on his fandom for the late country star.) Scroll through to see some of the reactions from disgruntled Twitter users.

Can you name one of his songs other than “The Devil Went Down to Georgia,” Mr. President? https://t.co/uTpUvRziZs
