Donald Trump has long kicked it with rappers. Due to his policies and more, some rappers may stay away from him now. But to celebrate New Year’s Eve at Mar-a-Lago, there is one who jumped at the opportunity: Vanilla Ice.
Ice served as the evening’s entertainment, and of course, he performed “Ice Ice Baby.” As for Trump, he looked like he could care less. You can see the performance below.
Trump is ringing in the New Year jamming out with Vanilla Ice at Mar-a-Lago
Video from the Mar-a-Lago New Year’s Eve party has surfaced on social media, and it shows Vanilla Ice doing his thing on stage, at one point even being joined by a TMNT character (Michelangelo, specifically, in case you were wondering about his political allegiances).
Naturally, people had jokes. One X (formerly Twitter) user wrote, “Time Zones are weird, guys. Australia is in 2024, California is in 2023, and Donald Trump is in 1992 at a Vanilla Ice concert.” Another wrote, “POV. It’s your last New Year’s celebration as a free man, and you get Vanilla Ice.” Others made note that Trump didn’t look super excited as the performance was happening.

This wasn’t Ice’s first time at Mar-a-Lago, as he previously made headlines for a 2020/2021 NYE performance at the same venue. He defended his appearance with a statement saying, “The New Year’s Eve celebration at Mar-a-Lago was awesome. We danced we celebrated. We had a great time. It was a very classy event at a beautiful Palm Beach landmark. Everyone was cleared from Covid test prior to the event. I think everyone just wants to get out and dance and have fun. We’ve all been marinating, trapped in our houses. It’s not about politics at all. This is about dancing and enjoying New Year’s. And I wish everyone a very happy new year.”
Donald Trump recently announced plans to hold a “commit to caucus” rally in Iowa next month. The kicker is that the event will take place on the third anniversary of the U.S. Capitol riot, which saw hundreds of his supporters storm the building. The attack resulted in countless arrests, several injuries, multiple deaths, and more.
While the timing of the event appears to be intentional, the Chairman of Iowa’s republican party Thad Nearmyer insists that it’s merely a coincidence. “When they first announced it was on Jan. 6, I didn’t even think anything of it,” he told The Daily Beast earlier this week. “And then a little bit later it kind of occurred to me that that date has some significance. “
Thad Nearmyer “Didn’t Think Anything” Of January 6 Rally
“I would imagine that will get brought up by him,” Nearmyer added. While the event stands out as the deadliest since the War of 1812, he downplayed it in his conversation with the outlet, claiming “It wasn’t nearly as big of a deal as it was made out to be.” News of Trump’s January 6, 2024 rally comes after Maine’s Secretary of State, Shenna Bellows, announced that the disgraced former president has been removed from the state’s Presidential primary ballot. Bellows cited a 14th Amendment clause that prevents “insurrectionists” from running for President.
Colorado tried to do something similar earlier this month, but he’s now back on the ballot after the state’s republican party appealed the decision. What do you think of Donald Trump holding a rally on the third anniversary of the January 6 U.S. Capitol attack? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.
Maine’s Secretary of State has announced that Donald Trump has been removed from next year’s Presidential primary ballot. Shenna Bellows cited a Civil War-era clause of the 14th Amendment that bars “insurrectionists” from running for President. If the ruling stands, Maine will become the second state to remove Trump from the ballot. Earlier in December, the Colorado Supreme Court excluded Trump from the state’s ballot using the same precedent. However, Bellows became the first elected official to disbar Trump from the ballot.
However, whether these rulings will stand will likely depend on the Supreme Court. SCOTUS has never had to rule on Amendment 14, Section 3 before. But with states seemingly exercising their constitutional right, the court will likely intervene to have the final say. It will set up a fascinating battle between the court’s conservative leaning and many of the justices’ public stance as “constitutional absolutists”. No date has been set for SCOTUS to rule on the rights of states to disbar Trump on state ballots.
Meanwhile, Trump has been fighting claims that he “bullied” his way into a cameo in Home Alone 2. “I was very busy, and didn’t want to do it. They were very nice, but above all, persistent. I agreed, and the rest is history!” Trump wrote on Truth Social. The brief moment, in which Kevin McCallister runs into Trump and asks for directions, was filmed in the lobby of the then-Trump-owned Plaza Hotel. Trump then went on to claim that his brief cameo was the driving force of the film’s massive success.
The claims that Trump forced his way into a cameo stem from a 2020 interview with the film’s director, Chris Columbus. While speaking with Business Insider, Columbus claimed that Trump offered the lobby of the Plaza for free as long as he got a part in the film. Columbus said he had gone to Trump after finding it impractical to recreate the iconic lobby on a soundstage.
Donald Trump believes Home Alone 2: Lost in New York was a success due to his cameo appearance. Earlier in the week, the film’s director, Chris Columbus, revealed Trump “bullied” his way into the sequel.
According to Columbus, Trump would only allow the use of the Plaza Hotel if he was in the movie. “So we agreed to put him in the movie, and when we screened it for the first time, the oddest thing happened: People cheered when Trump showed up on screen. So I said to my editor, ‘Leave him in the movie. It’s a moment for the audience.’ But he did bully his way into the movie.”
Hitting Truth Social, Trump says that’s not what happened at all.
“They rented the Plaza Hotel in New York, which I owned at the time. I was very busy, and didn’t want to do it. They were very nice, but above all, persistent,” Trump wrote. “I agreed, and the rest is history! That little cameo took off like a rocket, and the movie was a big success, and still is, especially around Christmas time. People call me whenever it is aired.”
In a separate statement, Trump said: “That cameo helped make the movie a success, but if they felt bullied, or didn’t want me, why did they put me in, and keep me there, for over 30 years?”

Fake Donald Trump Quotes About Panera Bread Go Viral
Meanwhile, it’s not the only fact-checking related to Trump in recent weeks. Images appearing to show Donald Trump blaming Joe Biden for a spate of recent deaths linked to Panera Bread’s lemonade have gone viral online. Fake captions added to screenshots of a real Trump speech in Iowa appeared to show the former President going off on a lemonade-related tangent. “Everything is bad under Biden. Even the lemonade is killing people. Did you see that? People drink lemonade and die. The lemonade didn’t kill you when I was president. It was tasty and fun to drink. We loved the lemonade, didn’t we? We did, but not under Biden. Bacon is more money. Gas is more money. The lemonade is more money and it kills you. When life hands you lemons, Joe Biden kills you with them,” the fake quotes read. The quotes were originally posted by a satirical comedian on X.
However, the fake quotes are in reference to a real event. At least two people have reportedly died as a result of drinking Panera Bread’s highly caffeinated “charged lemonade”. The issue seemingly arises from potentially lethal amounts of caffeine in larger servings of the beverages. While Panera Bread is in the process of updating its menu and nutritional information, the company has been hit with two wrongful death suits.

It’s no secret that Lil Pump and Donald Trump are good friends. The pair originally linked up during Trump’s first presidential campaign where he notoriously got the rapper’s name wrong. But that hasn’t dampened their relationship as the former president is once again running and recently brought out Pump at a campaign rally.
But the pair recently ran into each other once again at the UFC 296 event over the weekend. It’s no surprise as both the rapper and politician are known to frequent UFC events and while there they even posed for a selfie together. But just as the photo was beginning to make the rounds online, Trump was making waves at the event for another reason. During one of the night’s events, MMA fighter Colby Covington lost to opponent Leon Edwards. Covington is a notorious fan of the former president and shouted him out by name after the fight. In a press conference following the event, Covington blamed the judges ruling against him in the fight on his support for Trump. Check out the pictures of Lil Pump and Donald Trump and Covington’s full explanation below.
In recent weeks Lil Pump has been making more waves for his actions than any of his music. Back in October he got his nails done and like many after a manicure, took to social media to show off the results. But may took issue with the choice even including The Game who felt compelled to leave a comment disagreeing with the choice.
That debate re-emerged last week when Pump shared a comedic video about girls taking selfies in what appeared to be a full face of makeup. Fans debated whether or not he put on all of that makeup just to make a short video or if he could be using some kind of very accurate makeup filter. What do you think of Covington’s claim that he lost his fight because of bias against his support of Donald Trump? Let us know in the comment section below.
Donald Trump was one of the more high-profile guests at UFC 296 in Las Vegas on Saturday night (December 16). He was there to support Colby Covington, who is a big supporter of his campaign and politics, but who ultimately lost in the main event to Leon Edwards by decision. However, it seems like the disgraced former president had other things on his mind, too, as he was very distracted by the ring girl who took to the ring in a bikini. In pictures obtained by TMZ you can see him stare up at her as he waited for the next fight, one of which was a brutal knockout from Josh Emmett to Bryce Mitchell.
Furthermore, No. 45 is keeping up with these public appearances amid his ongoing presidential campaign and multiple indictments and criminal cases. Previously, he announced plans to attend the South Carolina and Clemson football game back in late November. Donald Trump never shies away from his sports fandom for better or worse, as they always cause a ruckus for people’s support or dismissal. Unfortunately, it seems like all his wrongdoing isn’t slowing down public interest in his antics… as you can tell.
Colby Covington Praises Trump In Post-Loss Speech: Watch
If you want an example of that, look no further than Covington’s post-loss speech. In it, he compares his decision defeat to that of the “rigged” election that Trump loves to allege. “You can delay us but you can’t deny us,” the MMA exponent stated. “He’s going to make America great again. We need these borders secure, we need inflation down and we need America first again. Donald Trump is the only one that’s going to do that again. Trump 2024!”
Meanwhile, other celebrities in attendance at UFC 296 included Mark Wahlberg, Jared Leto, Theo Von, Mario Lopez, and Jack Black. As for the Celebrity Apprentice provocateur, support for him within the hip-hop world has recently drawn a lot of controversy. We’ll see how that continues to play out as we are just weeks away from an election year. Regardless, check out the “Via” link below to see snaps of him falling for the ring girl.

While his Panera Bread rant might be fake, Trump has still been making some real (and bizarre) appearances. Last month, Trump attended the 120th Palmetto Bowl between South Carolina and Clemson this weekend. Other than the fact South Carolina voted for him, it’s unclear why Trump chose the game in particular. However, South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster said he was looking forward to welcoming the former president to Williams-Brice Stadium.
Clemson twice visited the White House during the Trump presidency to celebrate their 2016 and 2018 national championships. However, the visit in January 2019 became something of a spectacle after Trump proudly served mountains of fast food to the visiting players. Of course, this was not the only time he did this during his presidency. Despite this, people have questioned why Trump avoided the much higher stakes (and much more lucrative voters) of “The Game” between Ohio State and Michigan.
