Wayne recalls Trump “powwowing” with the rapper’s lawyer, Bradford Cohen, a former contestant on The Apprentice. Wayne does his best obnoxious white-guy voice as he mimics Trump and Cohen telling each other “fukk you!” and Trump joking to him, “You got this motherfukker representing you? You’re going down!”
“There was some people in there like, ‘Y’all should take a picture.’ He didn’t even ask for a picture,” Wayne says. “[It’s] poppin’ in this bytch. And he has these nice little two things with him, too,” Wayne recalls, seemingly meaning two women. “[Trump] says, ‘These motherfukkers asking me for fukking pictures all fukking day, man. Can we please?’ ”
“I said, ‘It’s the president. OK,’ ” Wayne recalls with a smile. “[Trump] was like, ‘Thank you. bytches [been] bothering me all day.’ ”
There was widespread criticism of the photo across social media. Did Wayne care? “fukk no, I don’t care about no backlash for nothin’ I do, you know me, man,” he says in a low croak. “My mama woulda been mad if I ain’t smile. That might have been the only backlash I would have worried about.” When I ask if he would’ve joined his rap peer Nelly in performing at the inauguration, he says, “I was asked, but we had something to do.”
Trump got endorsements from several rappers last election cycle, but Wayne says he probably would have passed had he been asked. “I would’ve told him, ‘You probably don’t want that,’ because I don’t know what’s going on,” he admits, shrugging. “I can tell you who won the last game, but I can’t really … you know what I mean?” When I ask how he feels about the post-photo perception that he’s a Trump supporter, he notes, “I don’t feel about it. I don’t give a fukk about that type of shyt. Tell ’em my dikk big though.”
