    Sure. But everyone will assume you are a male, white, nazi, sexist, racist, homophobe who eats little children and fucks puppies.

    And then they will attack you for it.

    The slogan and the idea in general are a good idea I think, but must it have a political affiliation tagged to it automatically?
    Not all Trump supporters are Republicans. There were a lot of people who went from Bernie Sanders to Trump.

    I dont think he necessarily wanted to win this election, but I doubt he wont do the next 4.

    Update Footage of 'Empire' actor Jussie Smollett's alleged attack sought by police

    By Sasha Savitsky | Fox News




    Chicago police told Fox News they've reviewed hundreds of hours of footage from downtown surveillance cameras but haven't found footage yet of the alleged attack on "Empire" actor Jussie Smollett.

    The department said Wednesday afternoon that they are expanding their search to the Chicago River area after footage from privately-owned cameras near where Smollett says he was attacked did not prove fruitful. Police are also broadening their search by reviewing footage from traffic cameras and public bus cameras.

    "We are taking this investigation very seriously," the police statement said.

    Smollett told police he was walking downtown near the Chicago River at around 2 a.m. on Tuesday when two masked men hurled racial and homophobic slurs at him, beat him, threw an "unknown substance" on him and put a rope around his neck. Police also told Fox News that Smollett said the attackers yelled, “This is MAGA country.” Investigators said he gave the detail to detectives during a follow-up inquiry, not when he initially reported the incident to police.

    A rep for Smollett did not return Fox News' request for comment. Police said Smollett took himself to Northwestern Memorial Hospital after the alleged attack for treatment.

    In a statement to Fox News, 20th Century Fox Television and Fox Entertainment said: “We are deeply saddened and outraged to learn that a member of our EMPIRE family, Jussie Smollett, was viciously attacked last night. We send our love to Jussie, who is resilient and strong, and we will work with law enforcement to bring these perpetrators to justice. The entire studio, network and production stands united in the face of any despicable act of violence and hate — and especially against one of our own.”

    Smollett plays openly gay musician Jamal Lyon on the Fox series. The actor told Ellen DeGeneres in 2015 that he identifies as gay but does not discuss his personal life in public.

    "Empire" is shot in Chicago and is currently in production.

    The Associated Press contributed to this report.

    I get the feeling that a charge of filing a false police report will be coming, or at the very least should be coming, in relation to this case.

    He of course has the right to walk down by the river at 2 am. He could of been walking someone home, getting munchies, getting stoned. Saying anything otherwise will be called victim blaming. Can RBP tell us approximately how cold it was the night in question? I don't buy part of his story.

    And if DGX is right, we're going to see a huge reaction from both sides. Black, gay actor faked assault to incriminate the 'publicans? Ooh boy.

    I checked history for a downtown weather station, which puts the temperature at ~7°F (-22C) at 2 am.

    I need to stop expecting precision from reporting, but that article would suggest the expended search is in the opposite direction of the subway shop.

    Thanks. -14C ain't no walking around weather, especially down by the river in Chicago at 2 am. I'd like to know what he was doing there, how far he walked, planned on walking. Maybe he could fill out the story a little more. If it's buying a sub, then I guess he was hungry.

    I agree with Pony. The two attackers would have to be anticipating an assault to be carrying the chemicals, rope and masks. The 'white' guys in masks were hoping to find a democratic supporter and the first black guy they accosted turned out be gay and a democrat?

    Something is missing. Even if the attackers recognized the guy as their specific kind of target, they took a big chance assaulting a well known actor. Sounds like Chicago has some surveillance happening.

    There's no way, it's bullshit. If he got jumped by 2 guys, his face would be way more jacked up then it is. And a 'noose'? Give me a fucking break. Maybe if the attackers were 12 years old.

    Something might have happened and he concocted the story to cover his tracks. Maybe he was out looking for a dealer and somebody robbed him.
