Nearly a week after Madonna made comments about “blowing up” the White House, President Trump is slamming the Queen of Pop.
During an interview with Sean Hannity, Trump said, "Honestly, she's disgusting. I think [Madonna] hurt herself very badly. I think she hurt that whole cause. I think what she said was disgraceful to our country.”
On Sunday, Madonna clarified her comments, writing on Instagram, "I am not a violent person, I do not promote violence and it's important people hear and understand my speech in its entirety rather than one phrase taken wildly out of context. My speech began with 'I want to start a revolution of love'."
Along with Madonna, Trump also slammed “Saturday Night Live,” which recently made headlines after writer Katie Richie posted a controversial tweet about his son. He said, "It's a failing show, and Alec Baldwin's a disaster. A person from 'Saturday Night Live' was terrible. I don't mind some humor but it's terrible. For them to attack, for NBC to attack my 10-year-old son... it's a disgrace… It's not an easy thing for him. Believe me."
Trump also called out media outlets, who he claims misrepresented the number of people who attended his inauguration. He said, "It's fake news. It's fake. They make things up. They try to demean it so much. When I was in that speech, it was a sea of people and they want to demean it. They are so demeaning and so dishonest and in many cases not very smart.”
