Donald Trump and Rihanna
Former US President Donald Trump has attacked Rihanna, calling her "nothing" and claimed that she has "no talent."
The politician, 76, got riled up after Texas Congressman Ronny Jackson called on the NFL to remove the Barbadian songstress from the half-time show after she "badmouthed America." In his post, he also reportedly pointed out that Rihanna is anti-Trump.
"Rihanna spray painted âF''' Donald Trump' on a car at the Cadillac Ranch in Amarillo, Texas. She has made a career of spewing degenerate filth while badmouthing America every chance she gets," Jackson, who is Trump's former White House doctor, wrote on Friday. "Why is the NFL showcasing this crap? Rihanna should not be the half-time performer!" Responding to Jackson's remarks, Trump wrote: "Without her stylist, she would be nothing." He added: "Bad everything, and no talent!"

Trump didn't seem to hate Rihanna that much before, as his team used her song, Don't stop the music, for a campaign rally during the mid-terms. She, however, sent a cease and desist to prevent them from using her music in the future. She added that she wouldn't be seen at one of the "tragic rallies."
Rihanna has been a vocal critic of Trump. She criticised his stance on immigration, sharing a photo of herself holding a T-shirt that read "Immigrants" around the time he ordered the delay of ICE deportations. "Wherever I go, except for Barbados, I'm an immigrant," she explained why the topic was close to her heart.
