Never one to shy away from controversial statements, Talib Kweli was asked how Trump's administration would affect Obama's legacy and he did not hold back. Citing the absolute lack of respect shown to President Obama, Kweli believes that Trump won as a form of backlash for Amerikka electing a black president.
"America wanted payback for a n**** president", said Talib, proclaiming that the bar for Trump's presidency is much lower than that of Obama's. "Trump can be mediocre, he can be a failure...He was still called a monkey, he was still called a liar to his face by our congressmen. Donald Trump lies every day, ain't no one calling him a liar to his face."
Kweli finishes by expressing that there is a way for Trump to turn things around as his 100th day in the White House approaches, but it won't be easy. Watch above.
