Hollywood celebrities and leftists were caught spewing racist hatred towards Lil Wayne on Thursday night after the rapper officially endorsed President Trump for reelection.

“What is it? What do you mean?” he said when asked about ‘Black Lives Matter’.
“That just sounds weird, I don’t know, that you put a name on. It’s not a name. It’s not ‘whatever, whatever.’ It’s somebody got shot by police for a f***ed up reason,” Wayne said.
“I am a young, black, rich motherf***er—if that don’t let you know that America understand black [inaudible] matters these days, I don’t know what it is,” he said, adding “Don’t come at me with that dumb s***.”
“I don’t feel connected to a damn thing that ain’t got nothin’ to do with me,” Wayne urged.
