Ice Cube has received a lot of backlash since it was revealed that he met with Donald Trump's team before the election to speak about his Contract with black America, which led to Trump announcing his Platinum Plan.
After repeatedly stating that he didn't endorse Trump, Ice Cube took to Twitter on Thursday (November 5) to respond to the ongoing backlash. He wrote, "Let me get this straight. get the president of the United States to agree to put over half a trillion dollars of capital in the Black Community (without an endorsement) and Ni*gas are mad at me? Have a nice life."
Meda personality Roland Martin responded to Cube, and he went on to explain why he thinks Ice Cube was "played" by Trump and his team. Martin stated, "The only problem @icecube is that you didn't get Trump to put $500 billion of capital in Black communities. It's a lie. It's ONE LINE on the cover sheet of his so-called Platinum Plan. No specifics. NOTHING. Bruh, you got played." Roland then added that he's "talked to numerous Black Republicans who currently work with the administration and THEY said the $500 billion 'commitment' is a joke."
Ice Cube has yet to respond to Roland, but you can read more of what he had to say above.
