President Donald Trump had an arresting soundtrack on a visit Tuesday to a mask factory, during which the Guns N' Roses version of "Live and Let Die" played out.

The president toured a Honeywell aerospace facility in Arizona — which has pivoted to mask production — while a rousing series of songs were played over the sound system.

The tour was one of the president's few ventures outside the White House in two months, and he went against recommendations by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to wear a face covering over his mouth and nose, as Business Insider earlier reported.

But the combination of the president going maskless and the song caught a lot of attention.

The song — a cover of the song first recorded for the 1973 James Bond film of the same name — played just as a Honeywell representative was showing the president the properties of the materials used in the masks.

The tour also played favorites from Trump rallies, including Lee Greenwood's "God Bless the USA" and "Eye of the Tiger" by Survivor, according to the Los Angeles Times.

The footage quickly made its way onto social media, where numerous people commented on the apparent irony of the situation.

Tuesday's tour came the same day Vice President Mike Pence said the government was considering phasing out its coronavirus task force by Memorial Day later this month.

Pence has also come under criticism for not wearing a mask during a visit to the Mayo Clinic's headquarters in Minnesota on April 28.

He later apologized, telling Fox News: "I didn't think it was necessary, but I should have worn a mask at the Mayo Clinic."

Business Insider has contacted Honeywell for comment.
