    Adele, REM and Pharrell Williams have previously taken issue with Mr Trump using their music.

    The version of In The End in the video was a cover, performed by Tommee Profitt featuring Fleurie and Jung Youth, Variety reported

    Jung thanked "everyone in the Twitter community who helped get the video taken down".

    The Lumen database of DMCA takedown notices shows Machine Shop Entertainment, Linkin Park's business arm and management company, formally requesting the removal of the video under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act in the US.
