Eminem on Trump: 'I Get Flustered and Frustrated Watching Him Play to His Base'

Eminem on Trump: 'I Get Flustered and Frustrated Watching Him Play to His Base'

Eminem's thoughts about Donald Trump recently went viral (again), in a clip that was originally shared on the @Rising_path TikTok page on Monday, (August 7), per Hip-Hop Wired.

In the clip, Em is detailing exactly why Trump and his base are so frustrating. “I just get flustered and frustrated watching him play to his base that thinks that he cares about them and it’s actually the people that he cares about the f-cking least,” said Em. “If you’re talking about his core being, ya know, a majority white middle class, what I don’t understand is how in the f*ck do you feel like you relate to a billionaire who has never known struggle his entire f-cking life?”

He went on to say that Trump talks a good game but that's where it ends. “I will say this, he talks a good one. And if you’re in his base, let’s say you’re going to the rallies or whatever, you watch him on TV, you hear him talking this sh-t, there’s part of me that understands, like, alright, he’s somehow still got them because he’s brainwashing them into thinking something great is going to happen," he said. "Nothing’s happening.”

In other Eminem news, at 2023's Rock The Bells Festival, Treach of Naughty by Nature revealed that he is working on a new album, and he responded to Eminem's recent praise of him.

"When Eminem shouts me out its nothin' but love," the 'Uptown Anthem' MC said. "Eminem said he almost stopped rappin' when he heard me, when I heard Eminem i almost stopped rappin'. I'm like this guy right here, you cant top nothin' he's sayin right now. Not cause he's a white boy, he's gettin' the accolades he's gettin' right now because he's one of the dopest MC's to touch the mic ever in history, and if you have a problem with it say it so he can chew yo ass out the fuckin' frame! I call him my light skinned twin. Treach then addressed Eminem personally. "Em, I'm working on a solo album and I ain't takin' it to nobody but you. So now you got it out there in the universe, come see me - love you."
