Trump Defended Michael Jackson

Now Janet Jackson's remarks make sense!

Remember when Michael Jackson was prosecuted based on accusations of child molestation?

San Francisco's Deputy District Attorney back then was Kamala Harris and she probably worked with LA Police to have him prosecuted.

The loudest voice defending Michael Jackson was none other than Donald Trump!

But Trump hates Black people, right?

Michael Jackson’s Unlikely Friendship With Donald Trump: A Timeline ⌛

Throughout the 1980s and ’90s, there were few more famously wealthy Americans than Donald Trump and Michael Jackson, so it’s unsurprising they’d find themselves moving in similar circles, stepping out publicly at the same fashionable fundraisers and photo ops, and relating to one another’s lavish tendencies, be it gold toilets or private amusement parks.

Their friendship continued into the 2000s, and despite the two men’s rapidly diverging paths, Trump continued to publicly support Jackson up through his 2009 death and beyond, painting the late King of Pop as “misunderstood” as recently as the lead-up to the 2016 election.
