Of course they did.
YG‘s song “FDT (Fuck Donald Trump)” has been ringing f at his shows since before Trump was even elected. Since Trump’s election and the subsequent catastrophe his presidency, the song has only become a more forceful rallying cry. YG has made a custom inviting fans onstage before performing his protest song and getting them to shout its title. While most people at a YG show would be thrilled to be selected for this duty, someone at YG’s set at Mala Luna Festival this past weekend was not. A now-viral video shows a young man refusing to utter the words into the mic and then being kicked f stage by the Compton rapper.
Trump’s White House has been known to immaturely respond to every little criticism that a celebrity might launch at it. Therefore, it’s not surprising that what went down at the YG show incited a comment from the administration. Today, when asked about the incident on Fox News, White House press secretary, Stephanie Grisham, responded: “Another example the tolerant left.”
Watch the video the incident below, in which YG says to the concert-goer, “I don’t know if I want to shake your hand yet. Listen, I spotted you out in the crowd. I asked you if you fuck with Donald Trump. You said you don’t know. So, since you don’t know, I need you to make up your mind tonight… Because I know your mama, your daddy, your grandmama, your grandfather is watching, I want you to state your name and go ‘Fuck Donald Trump.”
