Jesse Williams’s Impromptu Rant Against Donald Trump Is Almost as Good as His BET Awards Speech

Dropping knowledge — and insults — on the fly.

It's no secret that Jesse Williams is one of today's most woke celebs — just look at his Humanitarian Award acceptance speech at the BET Awards, last year.

In fact, the actor rivaled his words from the celebrated speech recently when he was spotted heading into The Daily Show in New York City.

When asked about his thoughts on what Trump is doing to tackle racist injustices in America, the Grey's Anatomy star smirked before telling TMZ, "He's not."

That wasn't all. While signing autographs for fans outside of the studio, he went on to address the POTUS's Muslim ban.

"He's a pig," he added. "He's trying to make sure that he galvanizes as much fear as possible, particularly against Black, brown immigrants and Muslims... He doesn't think he's going to help anybody."

He also shared his thoughts on police brutality and whether or not Trump would do anything as president to address this issue. Take a look, below:
