Donald Trump is out talking bad about Jussie Smollett…again. This time, while speaking at a campaign rally in Green Bay, Wisconsin, Trump called Smollett’s hate crime case a “disgrace to our nation” and even said “MAGA Country” is the “greatest theme in the history of politics.”
“I didn’t hear that term until that third-rate actor in Chicago went out and he said, ‘I was beaten up by MAGA country.’ Can you believe it?” Trump said in reference to Smollett’s claim that two men yelled “This is MAGA country” in the January attack. Trump continued as the crowd cheered, “Turned out to be a total lie.”
Trump seemingly also took a jab at Chicago law enforcement, stating, “By the way, I have to tell you that case in Chicago is a disgrace to our nation.”
This is not the first time Trump has recently remarked on Jussie Smollett. In April at the National Republican Congressional Committee, he called Smollett “the actor nobody ever heard of.” Trump said, “How about the guy from Chicago? The actor that nobody ever heard of. He said he got taken out by ‘MAGA country.’ I said, ‘What the hell was that?’ I guess that’s a hate crime, right?”
