10 Years After the Escalator: Trump’s Political Rise Commemorated Through Jon Kahn’s ‘Fighter’

Ten years ago today, Donald J. Trump descended the golden escalator inside Trump Tower—and changed American politics forever. That moment wasn’t just the launch of a presidential campaign; it was the spark of a movement that would disrupt the political establishment and give a voice to millions of forgotten Americans.

Now, a decade later, that defining event is being honored through music. Jon Kahn’s “Fighter,” released through Baste Records, surged to #1 on Billboard’s Digital Song Sales chart—a powerful anthem that captures the spirit of Trump’s rise and the resilience of the MAGA movement.

The song’s success is more than just a chart-topping win—it’s a cultural moment. “Fighter” blends patriotism, grit, and faith in a way that reflects the energy of MAGA, a movement that has taken flight and caused the political map began to shift.

As America heads into another critical moment in her history, the fusion of music and politics is clearer than ever. With artists like Jon Kahn at the forefront, Baste Records is helping lead the charge—showing that the MAGA movement isn’t just political, it’s cultural.

Ten years later, the fighter spirit lives on.
