When John Legend won the internet: Singer calls Donald Trump 'racist'
Los Angeles: Grammy Award-winning musician John Legend started a Twitter war with business tycoon and US presidental candidate Donald Trump's son Donald Trump Jr, telling him that his father is "racist".
Trump Jr. tweeted on Friday night about the protestors at his father's rallies.
Ha 5 students when asked why they were protesting couldn't even answer. The participation medal/micro aggression generation is pretty sad!

It's pretty embarrassing. Trump supporters were articulate and the antis could barely speak and had no answers. https://t.co/FIhnHkEXDG

On that, Legend commented:
.@DonaldJTrumpJr I think they were protesting your racist father. This isn't complicated.

Trfump Jr. replied:
Here we go again. That can't be the answer for everything you don't like. That's why the country is so divided now! https://t.co/BFh3XNsl7F

But Legend would not let him have the last word.
@DonaldJTrumpJr no. It's just the answer when racist racists are saying racist shit and are endorsed by the KKK.

Legend was referring to Klux Klux Klan who have been seen at Trump's rallies.
He further tweeted a link to the entire conversation, calling his comments the most obvious thing to say. Legendary stuff by John Legend!
This is not controversial. This is not news. The sky is blue. https://t.co/TZCmZEpyyS
