Who Else But Snoop Dogg! Rapper Lands In Trouble For Mock Assassination Of Donald Trump In New Music Video
Snoop Dogg¡¯s new music video has triggered outrage among Donald Trump supporters.
The new soundtrack titled 'Lavender', shows the rapper aiming a fake gun at a clown that looks like Trump. The gun releases a flag with the word "bang" on it.
Following which, Trump's personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, told TMZ he was "shocked" by the video and said the rapper "owes the president an apology."
Cohen said Snoop Dogg and others should ¡°learn that they have to respect the office of the presidency."
But things seems to have gone way out of hand at this point. More recently, Donald Trump fired off an angry tweet against Snoop Dogg.
Can you imagine what the outcry would be if @SnoopDogg, failing career and all, had aimed and fired the gun at President Obama? Jail time!

Snoop has been heavily criticised for the music video which shows "Ronald Klump," an orange-faced clown (who is the president) being shot at by a toy gun.
Viewer discretion advised
And as usual Twitterati had field day with the issue.
@SnoopDogg Assassination of @POTUS crosses a line of decency. Unacceptable. Maybe you should meet with him to see how you can help Americans

Somebody please explain to the President of the United States that music videos aren't real. Then have him take his meds. @realDonaldTrump
