Now that President Donald Trump has hit back at Late Show host Stephen Colbert for Colbert’s recent comment about him, T.I. says Trump’s response has “proven [that he’s] the clown that we all knew that he was.”
After Colbert made a crude sex joke about Trump and Russian president Vladmir Putin during his monologue, the president called Colbert a “no-talent guy” who uses ”filthy” language.
Speaking with TMZ, T.I. said the president’s remarks “sound like he was referencing himself in politics.”
“He has gone on record as saying some of the filthiest things I’ve heard said,” said Tip. “The filthiest thing I’ve heard someone in his position say.”
The Grand Hustle CEO continued, “To cast that light on someone else when it’s really a reflection of you…they call that hypocrisy.”
T.I. added that he is not surprised by Trump’s actions.
“The reason he went in on Colbert,” he says, “is because Colbert be on his a** and be telling the truth. I would expect for that to happen.”
