Pop queen annoyed!
Madonna calls “King” Donald Trump a bad joke
Pop icon Madonna has once again expressed her criticism of US President Donald Trump. In a post on X, she vented her anger about a controversial post from the White House in which Trump is portrayed as a "king".
On Wednesday, the official (!) X account of the White House published an edited version of a Time magazine cover. Trump's name was emblazoned on it, while a large "Long live the king" was written above the image of the president with a crown on his head. The post was accompanied by a quote attributed to Trump: "CONGESTION PRICING IS DEAD. Manhattan and all of New York are SAVED. LONG LIVE THE KING."
The campaign caused outrage - not least from Madonna. The singer responded with a clear statement!
Bad joke
"I thought this country was founded by Europeans who wanted to escape the rule of a king to create a New World ruled by the people. Currently we have a president who calls himself our king. If that's a joke, I'm not laughing."
The controversial image montage was published after Trump's government decided that the planned congestion pricing in New York would not be introduced. The toll was originally intended to reduce traffic in Manhattan and secure subway funding. Trump celebrated the decision as a victory and portrayed himself as the savior of the city.
