āFu*k Donald Trump, I never liked him. for all I know he had me set up and had my friend Angel Fernandez killed but thatās history. LOL,ā 50 Cent tweeted.
In the interview, Handler noted that Jackson was her āfavorite ex-boyfriend,ā saying she was disappointed by his āendorsement.ā
āHe doesnāt want to pay 62 percent of taxes because he doesnāt want to go from 50 Cent to 20 Cent,ā said Handler. āI had to remind him that he was a Black person, so he canāt vote for Donald Trump, and that he shouldnāt be influencing an entire swath of people who may listen to him because heās worried about his own personal pocketbook.ā
The āendorsementā stemmed from 50 Centās reaction to a screenshot of Democratic-nominee Joe Bidenās supposed tax plan.
As theGrio previously reported, 50 Cent shared a screenshot of CNBC infographic, taken out of context, highlighting that Bidenās plan would increase state and federal tax rate for top earners.
