Good on Snoop for not pulling any punches… regardless to whenever this interview originally took place.
Indeed! America’s stoned Pee-paw is spot-on and has no fucks left to give! He even called out Kanye!
It takes something very serious to cut through that pleasant laid-back haze of good feelings, but here we are. Preach it, Snoop!
Snoop’s unlikely bestie finally endorsed Harris last month too.
52 year old Calvin Broadus.
Sure, but he’s got 7 grandbabies! Gen Xers are grandparents now! Not an attack on our generation, just a fact of life!
Stoned pee-paw!
Now I want to see the Snoop vs Trump Debate.
Well said. Too bad it can’t be used in a campaign ad.
How high would Snoop need to be for it to be a fair fight?
I could watch this all day
After the ventilation system let the green rooms where Snoop and Trump were preparing share air and “other airborne substances”?
Millennials are grandparents now. Lauren Boebert, for example
Tsk tsk, Snoops tone changed considerably after Trump pardoned a friend of his. This interview was six years ago.
Rapper Snoop Dogg, who said in January 2024 that he has ‘nothing but love and respect’ for Donald Trump, slammed supporters of Donald Trump in a recent radio show appearance. The rapper, who is one of the faces of the 2028 Olympics in the United States, said that anyone who supports trump is a racist.
It starts with the radio jockey asking Snoop Dogg: “Many of fans get mad when I talk bad about Donald Trump.” Snoop Dogg replied: “You need to understand that a lot of your fans are racist.”
“If you like that n—a, you motherfckin’ racist. Fck you and fck him, and fck Kanye too, now what? They drew the lines. Before him, there were no lines.” he added.
I do not think that is accurate.
This article doesn’t provide any details though, I think the author may have been mistaken in believing the radio interview was more recent than it actually was. In fact it reads like it could have been written by AI.
Either way I agree with the Snoop from whichever time period he made these comments.
ETA: Fact-checkers say interview was from 2018. So I guess I agree with 2018 Snoop.
ETA 2: Definitely from 2018, here’s a story published about the interview when it aired.
ETA 3: Trump being the petty little manchild he is, Snoop’s previous comments almost cost Harry-O that clemency in the final hours of the Administration.
This is interesting. Something must have brought this up again, because there are several articles in different sites referring to this as recent, but they all seem to be the same article and reference a July 19, 2018 interview (without giving a date for it.) Nice. Perfect. Damn it…
It’s getting trickier than ever to fact-check these kinds of things, that’s for sure. The rise of content mills and AI slop is turning “being an informed citizen” into a real pain in the ass.
