Trump got real comfortable during his speech at a South Carolina primary rally. As he took the stage, Trump stated the lights were bright, allowing him only to see Black people.

“These lights are so bright in my eyes that I can’t see too many people out there,” Trump said. “I can only see the Black ones; I can’t see the white ones. That’s how far I’ve come. That’s a long way isn’t it? We’ve come a long way together.”

According to The Washington Post, the remarks happened at the Black Conservative Federation’s annual awards gala, where he stood with Black leaders, including former Housing and Urban Development secretary Ben Carson.

Also, during his time, Trump revealed he believes he has turned the Black population in his favor by his indictment and being discriminated against.

“When I did the mug shot in Atlanta, that mug shot is number one,” Trump said, highlighting Black people “embraced it more than anyone else,” saying he saw it on t-shirts.

His key statement on stage was: “I’m being indicted for you, the Black population.”

Snoop Dogg’s Criticism Haunted Trump During Final Days in Office

Rapper Snoop Dogg’s six-year-old criticism of former President Donald Trump resurfaced during the final hours of Trump’s tenure in the Oval Office, according to sources close to the White House.

The feud between the two figures dates back to 2018 when Snoop Dogg openly condemned Trump and Kanye West, stating that anyone who supported Trump was a racist. His bold comments reverberated across the nation, drawing both praise and criticism from different quarters.

Fast forward to Trump’s last days in office, and sources reveal that the then-president was consumed with thoughts of Snoop Dogg, unable to shake off the rapper’s scathing remarks. According to insiders, Trump was overheard expressing his frustration, bluntly stating, “Well, f— him,” in reference to Snoop Dogg.

The revelation sheds light on the unexpected impact of Snoop Dogg’s criticism on the highest office in the nation, with Trump reportedly stewing over their beef during his final moments in power. As the clock ticked down to President Biden’s inauguration, Trump’s renewed fury at the rapper triggered a flurry of efforts to convince him that Snoop Dogg had softened his stance.

Interestingly, during the same period, Snoop Dogg was silently advocating for the White House to grant clemency to his longtime friend Michael “Harry-O” Harris, who was serving a lengthy sentence for attempted murder and drug trafficking charges. However, Trump’s lingering resentment towards the rapper threatened to derail the campaign for Harris’s clemency.

Despite the tension between Trump and Snoop Dogg, justice prevailed when Harris was granted clemency in January 2021, marking a significant victory for the rapper’s behind-the-scenes efforts.

Fresh off a ruling that will cost him over $300 million, Donald Trump is pulling up to Sneaker Con. Maybe he will try to cop a pair of his Ye’s sneakers to show an acknowledgement for his support, or maybe he will attempt to get the young vote in a swing state. Most likely the latter.

Trump hit Truth Social and announced his presence: “Looking forward to being at Sneakercon at the Philadelphia Convention Center, Pennsylvania, at 3 P.M. ET on Saturday. Then leaving for a Big Rally in Michigan!”

You can see his announcement below.

SneakerCon then stated: “Sneaker Con’s mission is to support and promote sneaker culture through our worldwide live events and digital platforms. We are thankful and appreciative of the sneaker community, and recognize individuals who generate awareness and authentic sneaker-related engagement towards our community.”

Kanye West Reveals 2024 Presidential Endorsement: ‘Trump All Day’

Kanye West Meets Trump WH

Kanye West is back on the Donald Trump support train. Paparazzi caught up with the rapper and asked about his support. Ye made no secret about his endorsement. “Yeah, of course, it’s Trump all day. What you talking ’bout? You know what it is.”

You can see the moment below.

The endorsement comes after a 2022 video from Ye detailing a visit to Mar-a-Lago that didn’t go well.

While YE was at Trump’s Florida home, he offered the idea of Trump being his running mate for President. Trump would be the vice president.

“I think the thing that Trump was most perturbed about [was] me asking him to be my vice president. I think that was, like, lower on the list of things that caught him off guard. It was the fact that I walked in with intelligence,” Ye said.

Ye said in the conversation that Trump insulted Kim Kardashian and told the former billionaire he would fail in the election. “And I was thinking like, ‘That’s the mother of my children.’ Since we and all the Christians in America that love Trump know that Trump is a conservative, we’re gonna demand that you hold all policies directly to the Bible.”

What was Ye’s response: “‘Woah Woah, hold on, hold on, Trump. You’re talking to Ye.’”

Nick Fuentes, a white supremacist, also attended the controversial dinner. More on that below.

Trump Ordered to Pay $83.3 Million to E. Jean Carroll in Defamation Case

Former President Donald Trump has been ordered to E. Jean Carroll $83.3 million for damaging her reputation by stating she lied when accusing him of sexual assault.

According to The AP, the jury comprised seven men and two women. Carroll smiled as the verdict was read. Trump had stormed from the courtroom during closing arguments and left the area with his motorcade.

Trump stated he would appeal in a statement, calling the rulling “Absolutely ridiculous!”

“Our Legal System is out of control, and being used as a Political Weapon,” Trump also wrote.

This was the second judgment in favor of Carroll, who stated an encounter at a high-end department store resulted in sexual assault in a dressing room.

In May, Trump paid Carroll $5 million. He was not found liable for rape, but sexual abuse and defmation. Carroll’s attorneys originally requested $24 million in compensatory damages and “an unusually high punitive award.”

“He shattered my reputation,” Carroll said. “I am here to get my reputation back and to stop him from telling lies about me.”

Trump Calls for His Supporters to Stop ‘Bags of Crap’ At Voting Both

Donald Trump Reportedly Teases 2024 Presidential Run at CPAC

Former President Donald Trump has provided a new set of orders to his rabid fan base: “If you see bags of crap coming into the voting area, you gotta stop it.”

Trump was speaking on the third anniversary of the Insurrection on Jan. 6., claiming people will cheat on election day. The message echoed the rallying cry of his base at the Capitol.

You can see the moment below.

Maine is the latest state that will not include Donald Trump on the 2024 Republican Primary Ballot. According to CNN, Maine’s top election official have removed Trump based on an “insurrectionist ban” presented in the 14th Amendment.

The 14th Amendment prohibits individuals who participate in insurrection from holding future public office in the United States.

Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows anticipates the Trump campaign’s appeal. Bellows is a Democrat but led a bipartisan group that didn’t find Trump to be fit for the ballot.

“I do not reach this conclusion lightly,” Bellows wrote. “Democracy is sacred … I am mindful that no Secretary of State has ever deprived a presidential candidate of ballot access based on Section Three of the Fourteenth Amendment. I am also mindful, however, that no presidential candidate has ever before engaged in insurrection.”

Earlier this month, Colorado Supreme Court removed Trump from their state’s primary ballot. The Trump team also appealed that decision.

“Democrats in blue states are recklessly and un-Constitutionally suspending the civil rights of the American voters by attempting to summarily remove President Trump’s name from the ballot,” Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung said.

With the Republican primary less than two months away, former President Donald Trump is celebrating the Insurrection anniversary of Jan. 6 with a rally.

The “Commit to Caucus Rally” will be held in Newton, Iowa. Members of the Republican party are downplaying the key date. Specifically, Thad Nearmyer, chairman of the Jasper County, Iowa Republican party, stated the date was an afterthought.

“A little bit later it kind of occurred to me that that date has some significance,” Mr Nearmyer said. “It wasn’t nearly as big of a deal as it was made out to be.”

Just last week, Maine became the latest state that will not include Donald Trump on the 2024 Republican Primary Ballot. According to CNN, Maine’s top election official have removed Trump based on an “insurrectionist ban” presented in the 14th Amendment.
