Jay-Z Slams Donald Trump’s ” Shithole ” Comment On African-American As ” Hurtful & Disappointing ‘

American Hip-Hop legend and music entrepreneur Shawn Carter, popularly known as Jay-Z has described American president, President Donald Trump’s “shithole countries” comment on African-American as ” disappointing and hurtful.” The ” 4:44 ” rapper was a guest on  Van Jones‘s debut program on CNN , “The Van Jones Show,” airing Saturday at 7 p.m. ET.

President Trump made this provocative comment during a Oval Office meeting, while according to some of the participants, as he rejected a bipartisan immigration deal to protect DACA participants. “Why do we want all these people from shithole countries coming here?” he reportedly told senators on January 11.

“OK, that is one way to do it. But another way to do it is let him have his team and then let’s talk about it together. … Maybe some penalties. Because once you do that, all the other closet racists run back in the hole. You haven’t fixed anything. What you’ve done is spray perfume on the trash can,” he said.

Continuing the analogy, he explained that more spray attracts more bugs as you’re not actually dealing with the trash — in this case, racism.

“You don’t take the trash out. You keep spraying whatever over it to make it acceptable and as those things grow, you create a superbug. And now we have Donald Trump, the superbug,” he said.

“Donald Trump is a human being, too. I’m being funny,” he added. “Somewhere along his lineage something happened to him and he’s in pain and he’s expressing it in this sort of way.”

“Everyone feels anger, but after the anger it’s really hurtful. … he’s looking down on a whole population of people, and he’s so misinformed,” JAY-Z slams Trump’s “shithole” comment.
