Lil Wayne endorsed Donald Trump and his Platinum Plan last week, joining the likes of Lil Pump, Ice Cube and Kodak Black in their perceived support of the current POTUS. But according to singer John Legend, who collaborated with Weezy on “So Special” from Tha Carter IV, he’s been sucked into the fictional “sunken place” from Jordan Peele’s psychological thriller Get Out.
On Monday night (November 2), the day before Election Day, Legend spoke at Joe Biden’s final rally and insinuated any Trump-supporting rapper has been essentially brainwashed.
“Now, some people see the meanness, the bullying, the selfishness of Donald Trump and they mistake it for strength, a kind of twisted masculinity,” he said. “Some see his greed and they mistake it for being good at business. Some of your former favorite rappers have been taken in by these lies. I think they even founded a new supergroup, it’s called The Sunken Place.
“But Trump’s Platinum Plan for Black folks is nothing but fool’s gold, because you can’t bank on a word he says. Ask the students of Trump University. Ask all of the contractors he stiffed. Ask people his charity was supposed to help before it was shut down for being a fraud. Ask all the Black and Brown Americans who are dying from this virus and losing their jobs under his watch.”
Lil Wayne touted a photo with Trump via Twitter on October 29. He wrote in the caption, Just had a great meeting with @realdonaldtrump @potus besides what he’s done so far with criminal reform, the platinum plan is going to give the community real ownership. He listened to what we had to say today and assured he will and can get it done.”
The Platinum Plan for Black Americans is a proposal that includes prosecuting the Ku Klux Klan and Antifa as terrorist organizations, making Juneteenth a federal holiday and efforts to bolster Black economic prosperity. CNN reported Trump pulled in a mere 8 percent of the Black electorate in 2016 and an average of recent 2020 polls shows Biden leading Trump with Black voters by an 83 percent to 8 percent, or 75-point, margin.
Rich The Kid Reportedly Declines Donald Trump’s Offer To Join Lil Pump As Campaign Advocate
It seems Trump is doing everything he can to appeal to Black voters, which he apparently thinks will happen if he poses with famous rappers.
On Monday (November 2), Rich The Kid claimed someone from Trump’s administration tried to entice him to attend a Trump rally with a private jet and the promise of hanging out with “all the billionaires.” Rather than take them up on the offer, he exposed their text messages and said he was “no sellout.”
Ice Cube never endorsed or supports Trump. He simply had a meeting with Trump’s team to discuss his contract with Black America.
I DON’T WANT TO BELIEVE IT EITHER, BUT DO NOT BE BLIND MY FRIEND.
Get fucked. He is very much AFFILIATED and it is PERCEIVED to be support from Cube. Bad reading comprehension dipshit.
Uh, then that means he’s affiliated. Jesus Christ.
John Legend is a C00N for Democrats.
And You’re a Trump Cocksucker. Get on your knees, boy. Swallow your presidential gravy.
John Legend and every other entertainer supporting Biden/Harris the SuperCop Ticket without demanding an agenda for Black people are the one’s in a sunken place. These folks lack any moral and political courage to vote down ballot and ignore these racist old white men at the top of the ballot. FOH
This guy and his weird baby eating wife are on epsteins flight logs. Fuck his opinion. Child touched, you and Biden both. That’s a fact not a conspiracy. Anyone can google john legend and epstein and dig a little deeper than the “debunked” articles to find out Mr. Legend and his wife are true sickos.
couldn’t agree more with you
John legend , An Epstein affiliate. How ironic.
Minorities need to vote the way white liberals tell them. It’s for your own good my Afro American and Latinx comrades! SAY IT WITH ME NOW MY HOMIES……WE RIDN’ FOR BIDEN!! See you at KFC comrades.
#BLM #LGBT #ONESTRUGGLE
These people telling you what you are cause of your freedom of speech and perspectives are the real ones stuck in the sunken place. What a sheep
This fool is blue. Not Black.
Black people just can’t get out of their own way man
so please someone tell me how this can be advanced to reality.
Can’t wait for this thing to be over. This is too much drama.
This fool holding the culture back. Whoever wins this election, it was nice to see many rappers vote any way they want. What is John legend so scared of anyway? Let’s not forget last election when Kanye showed legend texting him things like “we have an obligation” – I feel bad for all the people negatively impacted thanks to mr legends Negligence
interesting outlook.
It’s corny how you keep lumping Cube with these other Trump supporters. He’s not or ever have supported Trump. Like Charlemagne always say,”No one cares about the truth, because the lie is more entertaining “.
It’s not corny, it’s their agenda…you’re blackness is a chip to play for them. If you don’t fall in line they cast you out as the enemy, whether you are of not. Go vote D…get what you deserve
says the dude that has visited epstiens island numerous time with his ugly ass wife.
pedos help other pedos
Funny how the media won’t show the lame ass turn out to this rally. Lady Gaga, the spirit cooker witch and John Legend in his own mind couldn’t fill a school gymnasium. Reminiscent of Hillary lol.
Democrats said you black people aren’t allowed to have your own opinions. You all must think alike. Lol how is that not discrimination against their own? His wife isn’t even black. He married some Asian hooker. So much for his black love lol.
Respect to John Legend
