Hip Hop HIPocrisy: Photo Of Lil Wayne Posing With Donald Trump Goes Viral Sparking Spicy Social Media Discourse

As the nation nears election day, things have gotten a little bit more spicy in Hollywood and beyond with celebrities coming out of the woodwork to use their influence for their causes.

Most recently, rapper Lil Wayne decided to do his part in the political arena by proudly endorsing Donald Trump and his “Platinum Plan.”

“Just had a great meeting with @realdonaldtrump,” the “How To Love” rapper posted on Twitter as he posed with Trump. “Besides what he’s done so far with criminal reform, the platinum plan is going to give the community real ownership. He listened to what we had to say today and assured he will and can get it done.”

The tweet posted for nearly 35 million followers to see, received 471,000 likes and a whopping 67,200 replies. Reactions from Twitter users were all over the place with some applauding the rapper for “waking up” and others expressing disappointment in him.

While many seem to be distracted by the photo, the conversation really should be focused on what Lil Wayne discussed with Trump as a self-appointed representative of the black community.
