Ice Cube received some puzzling looks during a Bloomberg interview when he addressed a question about Donald Trump’s appeal. “Donald Trump is what Americans love. Donald Trump is what Americans aspire to be…” Some might have prepared paperwork for the next racial draft to send him packing like Stacey Dash, but don’t move too fast.
“[He is…] rich, powerful, do what you wanna do, say what you wanna say, be how you wanna be,” the rapper-actor continued. “That’s kind of been like the American dream. He looks like a boss to everybody and Americans love to have a boss.”

Ice Cube went on later to clarify that conversely, Trump won’t be able to “relate to the small guy” in America.
“Do I think he’s gonna do anything to help poor people or people that’s struggling? No, because he’s a rich white guy.”
He claims that although being a “rich white guy” doesn’t make him bad, it just detaches him from the rest of the little people.
