https://www.billboard.com/music/rock/jimmy-buffett-takes-digs-republicans-donald-trump-florida-democratic-rally-8483085/
I think I posted about that here at the time, but I haven't been able to find that old post. I remembered the stories about the rally, though.
EDITING to add that although Google search didn't turn up my old post about that, Advanced Search turned up two posts I'd made then:

https://democraticunderground.com/100211360470
And the second post there has a tweet linking to video of his concert that's still online.
EDITING AGAIN to add a direct link to the video of the concert, in case that tweet disappears for any reason:

President Donald Trump attacked Democrats in one corner of Florida on Saturday (Nov. 3), while Margaritaville king Jimmy Buffett took musical shots at him and Gov. Rick Scott in another as the states tight Senate and gubernatorial races reached the final weekend of campaigning.
-snip-
Buffett performed at a Democratic campaign rally in liberal West Palm Beach for Nelson and Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum, who is running for governor, urging the audience to vote for the pair by tweaking the lyrics of two of his most popular songs.
Buffett, taking a dig at Trump, changed the wording of Come Monday to Come Tuesday, things will change. Come Tuesday, were making a change. Its been two insane years and its time to really switch gears. The performance was 3 miles (5 kilometers) from Trumps Mar-a-Lago resort and frequent winter hangout.
Then, using Margaritaville, he criticized Scott for the states environmental problems: Some people say that theres a red tide to blame, but I know that its all Rick Scotts fault. Red tide algae have killed millions of fish off the southern Florida coasts over the last several months it occurs naturally but some scientists say pollution makes it worse. Buffett, who lives in Palm Beach, is an outspoken environmentalist, founding the charity Save the Manatee in 1981.
