T.I.'s video release of Melania Trump Controversy



Rapper T.I. has recently tweeted out  a video promoting his new album, ‘Dime Trap’. His tweet said “Dear 45, I ain’t Kanye”. The video showed T.I. in the oval office, and a Melania look alike portrayed as a stripper wearing only the controversial Zara “I really don’t care, do U?” jacket. The lookalike, Melanie Maren then starts to dance on top of the desk.

In response, Melania’s spokesperson has some out to call the video “disgusting” and to “boycott T.I”  and “disrespectful and disgusting to portray her in this way simply because of politics.”

Melanie Maren has now been getting death threats due to the video, “Somebody was going to take a baseball bat to me. Somebody wished me to get raped and then killed." She defends herself by claiming she wasn’t trying insult the first lady.  "The first lady's husband does a lot of bullying himself," she said. "So they've got some thick skin. If I was insulting her and degrading her, then it would be one thing, but I don't think I was."

Many people are not showing sympathy towards Melania Trump due to her nude photoshoot with a french men’s magazine. Other’s are defending T.I because he is using his right of freedom of speech.

Do you think T.I is being offensive towards the the President, or he is utilizing his right to express himself?

  1. Although its vulgar, T.I. is expressing his first amendment right to free speech and isn't doing anything wrong. I think Trump's administration is a joke.

    1. I agree with that statement, even though his freedom of speech is degrading.
