TRUMP Lashes Jay Z In New Tweet
President Donald Trump lashed out at American music star, Jay Z following his swipe at him when hosted on the Van Jones show on CNN.
Jay Z who spoke about the black community on the show, said even if the African American community is benefiting economically now under President Trump’s administration, but everyone is “missing the point”.
“It’s not about money at the end of the day…money doesn’t equate to happiness. It doesn’t. That’s missing the whole point. You treat people like human beings…that’s the main point.”
“Treat me really bad and pay me well. It’s not going to lead to happiness. Everyone is going to be sick” he said.
He then said Mr Trump’s election was due to a failure to properly address certain problems.
“You have sprayed perfume on the trash can,” he said. “What you do when you do that is the bugs come. You spray something and you create a superbug because you don’t take care of the problem.” “You don’t take the trash out, you keep spraying whatever over it to make it acceptable. As those things grow, you create a superbug. And then now we have Donald Trump, the superbug.”
He was also asked about the president’s alleged use of the word “shithole” to describe African nations. “It’s disappointing and hurtful,” he said. “Everyone feels anger. After the anger, it’s really hurtful because he’s like looking down on a whole population of people.”
However Donald Trump who reacted to the statement, tweeted;
“Somebody please inform Jay Z that because of my policies, Black Unemployment has just been reported to be at the LOWEST RATE EVER RECORDED!”
African-American unemployment stands at 6.8%, a record low.
But critics say economic growth began under President Obama and unemployment remains far higher among the black population than the white.
