Trump Just Lashed Out at John Legend and His ‘Filthy Mouthed Wife’ Chrissy Teigen
Donald Trump went on another Twitter tirade Sunday night in which he called out singer John Legend and his wife Chrissy Teigen for his appearance NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt.
In a series of four angry tweets Trump said, “When all of the people pushing so hard for Criminal Justice Reform were unable to come even close to getting it done, they came to me as a group and asked for my help. I got it done with a group of Senators & others who would never have gone for it. Obama couldn’t come close….
A man named @VanJones68 and many others, were profusely grateful (at that time!). I SIGNED IT INTO LAW, no one else did, & Republicans deserve much credit. But now that it is passed, people that had virtually nothing to do with it are taking the praise. Guys like boring…. musician @johnlegend and his filthy mouthed wife, are talking now about how great it is but I didn’t see them around when we needed help getting it passed.”

…..the importance or passage of Criminal Justice Reform. They only talk about the minor players, or people that had nothing to do with it…And the people that so desperately sought my help when everyone else had failed, all they talk about now is Impeaching President Trump!

In the news special, Grammy Award winner Legend spoke to Lester Holt about the country’s “broken criminal justice system,” and encouraged viewers to get involved with Free America, the campaign he started to help make a difference.
Tonight at 7pm PT/10pm ET, I will be joining @LesterHoltNBC for an @NBCNews Town Hall on @MSNBC to discuss our country’s broken criminal justice system. Follow @LetsFreeAmerica to learn more about my work to end mass incarceration. #JusticeForAll pic.twitter.com/9DFySXsgDY

Legend visits prisons and speaks to those incarcerated and explained, “I want to hear from them and communicate their concerns. They are pretty far out of our urban centers, out of sight and out of mind for most Americans, and don’t get heard from very often. I like to go and just listen and learn spread the message of reform.”
Legend’s Free America campaign started in 2014, years before Trump was President. The 40-year-old, who shares two children with wife Chrissy, 33, who’s a best-selling author, model, and TV host, has been striving to make a difference to the criminal justice for reasons that go beyond Trump and his policies.
John Legend responded on Twitter, and pretty much said what we are all thinking:
Imagine being president of a whole country and spending your Sunday night hate-watching MSNBC hoping somebody–ANYBODY–will praise you. Melania, please praise this man. He needs you.

Chrissy Teigen also responded on Twitter and pretty much nailed it:

Twitter had some thoughts:
Worth noting the woman mentioned, @chrissyteigen, doesn't have a name…is just "a filthy mouthed wife," and he husband is John Legend the musician. https://t.co/x9PivM8qdx

Chrissy Teigen living rent-free in Donald Trump's rapidly deteriorating brain gives me so much joy. https://t.co/q9OUGrxJoH
