The MAGA versus Liberal tussle for energy, literal and peripheral won’t ever quell — and a resurfaced clip of John Legend going hammer and tong on Donald Trump for his management (in)skills is simply one more proof.
Earlier this yr in February, the singer marked his presence at The Fifteen % Pledge’s fifteenth Road Block Social gathering in Hollywood. His take shared from the recent seat there, now resurfaced, has been creating some commotion on the web. In no unsure phrases, John denounced Trump as a “horrible chief” whose obvious divide and rule method merely had no sound logic to him: “America decided that I strongly disagree with and evidently we’re reaping the whirlwind proper now, placing somebody who’s a horrible chief, particularly in disaster. He is already out blaming folks, misinforming folks, dividing folks, when a wise and accountable and good political method to deal with it might have been to deliver folks collectively…be a comforter-in-chief, you understand”.
When breaching the subject of range, the singer was fast to label Trump as an out and out “bigot”: “Nicely he is a bigot. It is a perception that there is a hierarchy of racial teams and that his group is superior, genetically superior. He believes that”. Additional diving into the nicely of racially charged politics, John articulated, “Every time he talks about competence and {qualifications}, any white man will do for him. Have a look at the final man who was Secretary of Protection. He was a four-star basic, supremely certified, black man. After which see who he places in after him. That is the extent of bigotry he has”.
The remark part was stuffed with reward for John, for talking his fact as is. “Have a look at John over there, being Legendary. 💯”, “Love you John!! Their making an attempt to dumb us down!! We can’t return!!”, “Oh no, John Legend has damage their hoods. Hopefully, RFK Jr. has a vitamin complement for that” and “John Legend struck that racist and bigot nerve! I adore it!” learn a number of feedback.
It goes with out saying there have been loads of MAGA takes thronging the feedback part as nicely. “Trump ought to sue. Cease letting this slide” and “The douche modified his final title to Legend so he clearly believes he’s superior to everyone” made for a number of takes.
What’s your tackle Trump’s US presidency to this point?
