The gloves are off in the latest clash between MAGA world and internet comedy.
President Trump has officially weighed in on the firestorm surrounding comedian Druski, urging Erika Kirk, widow of the late Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, to take legal action after a controversial viral parody.
The drama erupted after Druski released a sketch titled “How Conservative Women in America Act,” which has already racked up a staggering 184 million views.
In the video, the comedian dons whiteface, blonde locks, and blue contacts to mock Erika’s appearance and body language, specifically parodied from a high-profile CBS News town hall.
While the skit had fans in hysterics, it sparked a massive backlash from conservatives who say the timing is "cruel," as Erika is still grieving the death of her husband just months ago.
During an Easter lunch at the White House this Wednesday, Trump didn't hold back his advice for the widow.
“I think you should sue him,” Trump quipped to Erika in front of a room of supporters. He later doubled down, telling her to “sue their a— off,” claiming that the creators are simply “jealous” of her.
The skit didn't just stop at fashion; it took aim at political rhetoric. “We have to protect all men in America, especially the white men... those are the ones who matter most,” Druski’s character says in the video while clutching a Bible.
High-profile Republicans have since rallied to Erika's side. Senator Ted Cruz called the antics “beneath contempt,” while others questioned why a grieving widow was targeted for a viral moment.
Despite rumors of a lawsuit already being in the works, a spokesperson for Druski told Newsweek that any claims of a cease-and-desist are currently “absolutely false.”
