Trump Blasts Jussie Smollett
for Staging Attack on Himself Smollett was arrested Thursday morning for staging an attack on himself, which was made to look like a hate crime. Chicago police say the 'Empire' actor
paid two brothers $3,500 to carry out the
attack, who allegedly shouted, "This is MAGA country!" Trump took to Twitter to defend "MAGA" and to blast
Smollett's actions. Chicago police claim Smollett carried
out the publicity stunt because he
was "dissatisfied with his salary." Eddie T. Johnson, Chicago Police Superintendent Smollett's bond has been set
at $100,000 and he's been
required to turn over his passport.
