| Mr. Carter meets Mr. Jones. |
I guess he can't handle Slim Shady.
Eminem scorched Donald J. Trump at the BET Awards last year. The inept leader didn't respond to the harsh diss. One wonders if race was involved.
Trump has responded to likes of Snoop Dogg, Rep. John Lewis (D-GA), Jemele Hill, LaVar Ball, Colin Kaepernick, Steph Curry and Barack Obama to name a few.
Today, we add Jay-Z to the list of professional Blacks getting underneath the dotard's skin.
Jay-Z appeared on CNN'S The Van Jones Show to discuss the Black community and Trump's role in it.

Jay-Z tells @vanjones68 about mending his marriage with BeyoncĂ©: "For us, we chose to fight for our love. For our family. To give our kids a different outcome. To break that cycle for black men and women" #VanJonesShow https://t.co/wLq6GxxpVc https://t.co/Nq4mLVAvSJ— CNN (@CNN) January 28, 2018
Jones asked how the media mogul felt about the alleged comments made by Trump in which he regarded Haiti and the 55 African countries, shitholes.
"There was a moment when [former Los Angeles Clippers owner] Donald Sterling had been exposed as this racist on a private phone conversation that he was having and they took his team from him."
"And it's like, OK, that's one way to do it. But another way would have been, let him have his team and then let's talk about it together. ... Maybe some penalties. Because once you do that, all the other closet racists just run back in the hole. You haven't fixed anything. What you've done was spray perfume on a trash can."
"You don't take the trash out. You keep spraying whatever over it to make it acceptable and then, you know, as those things grow, then you create a superbug. And then now we have Donald Trump, the superbug."
"Donald Trump is a human being, too," he said, adding he was just being funny. "Somewhere along his lineage something happened to him ... and he's in pain and he's expressing it in this sort of way."
"You treat people like human beings. That's the main point," he said. "It goes back to the whole thing -- 'Treat me really bad and pay me well.' It's not going to lead to happiness, it's going to lead to, again, the same thing. Everyone's going to be sick."
The remarks earned him a personal attack from Trump.
Somebody please inform Jay-Z that because of my policies, Black Unemployment has just been reported to be at the LOWEST RATE EVER RECORDED!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 28, 2018
And of course, conservatives waste no time trying to "schoolin'" Black entertainers about the so-called plight of the Black community.
Black unemployment came down under Barack Obama. Conservatives refuse to acknowlege that Obama takes credit for the economy. Trump in his usual fashion is taking credit for the low unemployment of Black Americans. These are the people Trump view in a negative light.
The conservatives rehash the old past Jay-Z had when he was a young buck dealing out the Brooklyn Zoo. Before he became a media and business mogul, Jay-Z was a dope dealer. He would become a successful rapper and a co-founder of his own music label. He changed his ways, married a pop singer and is a devoted father of three.
Fox News couldn't help but take a dig at Jay-Z.
At the Grammy Awards, the media mogul was nominated for eight categories. He didn't take any awards home and the right wing network trolled him.
