Ever since Eminem blasted Donald Trump in his 2017 BET Hip Hop Awards "The Storm" cypher, fans have been waiting for the prez to respond to the rapper. Not surprisingly, he's yet to.
But, it looks like the president's eldest son Donald Trump Jr. is sticking up for his dad. In a new interview with Vulture, Em spoke about the controversial commander-in-chief. "He makes my blood boil. I can’t even watch the news anymore because it makes me too stressed out," the artist admitted.
He continued: "All jokes aside, all punch lines aside, I’m trying to get a message out there about him. I want our country to be great too, I want it to be the best it can be, but it’s not going to be that with him in charge."
Later in the sit-down, Slim Shady also said that he's ready for Donald Trump Sr. to respond to his insults. "I’ve got lines ready if he says something about me," the MC added. "I get almost flustered thinking about him — that’s how angry he makes me."
Though the prez has yet to address Eminem, Donald Trump Jr. already has. On Tuesday (Dec. 19), Trump Sr.'s son reacted to the rapper's interview. "It’s a bit odd that he’s admitting to having prepared heavily to take on a 70 year old politician," Trump Jr. tweeted. "Probably not the best look. So much for freestyle. #WillTheRealLoserPleaseStandUp." See that tweet below.
Yeah, OK sis. But, we'll just leave this here...
