Rev. Al Sharpton is calling on President Trump to start speaking out — and tweeting up a storm — against the the MAGA hatred that apparently fueled the vicious attack on Jussie Smollett, reports TMZ.
Sharpton told TMZ that the President should strongly denounce the attackers to make it crystal clear his slogan shouldn’t be used as a battle cry for hate crimes.
As TMZ first reported … 2 men attacked Smollett at around 2 AM in Chicago and put his head in a noose and doused him in bleach. Jussie’s reps say the men screamed, “This is MAGA country” as they fled the scene.
