Trump Oddly Shouts Out Polow Da Don During Atlanta Rally

Folks are also wondering what the rapper/producer was doing there in the first place.

If 2020 wasn’t already bizarre enough, Donald Trump put another layer of icing on the WTF cake this year has brought us.

During an Atlanta campaign event during which the president spoke, the president gave a shout out to local rapper and producer Polow Da Don, who was apparently in attendance.

Trump noted that Polow was in the audience and acknowledged him by name. He then added, "You know Don King used to call me 'The Don.' He still does, actually."
