Just go to show anyone who don't, 😘 Orange Fuherer Trumpoop's but(& even those, who do) are subject to said Stencher's cackastechi.

GO Spike Lee!

Spike Lee is a drunk, sore loser. I wouldn't waste time on that jealous, spoiled baby who has to be restrained from running from out of the auditorium during a live OSCARS broadcast simply because HE DIDN'T WIN! DRUNK, BELLIGERENT CRYBABY.

Clown Car 2020.

Spice Lee who?

Democrats are the party of socialism

I heard that AOC wrote Spike Lee's speech for him. Then he had to hire an interpreter because he couldn't read it.

Good for Spike. ImpeachTheMfkr

Fake News

You mean 'Trump responds to personal attack from overrated liberal film maker'?

Love is bigger than hate, except when I hate that I lost the Oscar , then I leave fright away like petulant child, the irony

This schmuck wears a Mao cap.

dictators and dictatorships do not like the free journalism - because it reveals their lies and distortions - continue to reveal Trump!

Why does the Left always promote violence.

So glad I missed the Oscars -how unentertaining and unmotivating

Can you imagine if Trump had hosted this event? OMG!

Isn’t this cultural appropriation by SpikeLee dressing like a black mr rogers?

That celebrity is more of a citizen than the First Lady.

DT has reached out to minority communities bringing jobs, setting up economic recovery zones, hosted young black entrepreneurs in WH, hosted attendees for black history month--for this Lebron calls him a bum and Spike tells people to vote him out in 20/20. Thanks for noticing.

LiberalHypocrisy

You are such a liar he called for Racist hate against Prez Trump Voter, This man Does not care if Dems Cheat to Win or How they win as Long as the Win. He is a Hollywood Hater and you Know it

spike lee is a little B!t(h. He Has been a Little Bit(h before and sounds like he is still a Little B!t(h.

Who is Spike?

semissourian Another worthless actor that I will never go to a show that he has anything to do with. When will the self important and self absorbed clowns figure out no one cares what they think about politics

Little weasel

Facts: President Trump Job Approval: 50% Unemployment: 3.9% - including lowest African-American unemployment ever Jobs added: 3.2 million Deficit: $532 billion GDP: 4.1% President Obama Job Approval: 45% Unemployment: 9.4% Jobs Added: -2.9 million Deficit: $936 billion GDP:1.6%

Liberal privilege!

Spike needs to go back to school and learn how to read.

SpikeLee has the right to say what he did and Trump needs to learn how to accept criticism better.

Right...and of course Lee was the first person in recorded history to do such a thing (not)

Spike Lee has more knowledge in his fingertip than trump has in his whole warped brain. Pick on somebody that is worthy of racist attacks and not Spike Lee. You are not my president. Obama was and still is.

If he would 'Do the Right Thing'he wouldn't feel threatened. Democrats 2020 Clean the Trash out of the White House

Good for the president! Who is Sprite Lee?

I think 70% of America wants Trump voted out. Based on current news runs, he may be impeached or requested to resign anyway. He has not made America great again.

When Spike doesn't receive the award he thinks he deserves....

So this headline should read... Spike Lee goes after Trump during Oscar speech, so Trump responds. Newsflash: if you attack Trump, he will fight back.

Spike Lee should have left his political opinions at home, bad enough that he made a ass out of himself last night. His speech was painful to listen to

Some insecure cry baby had their feelings hurt.

Historic agreement w/N Korea Crushed Isis Supreme court Justices Record unemployment Thriving economy

Go Trump! Beat the communists!

Taking time out from his made-up emergency. Executive Time

Spike did the right thing

This president needs to be placed in a mental institution. We need to see a Mobilization as we saw for Barack Obama if we want to take the White House in 2020.

no what he said was do the right thing and be on the moral right side of history, basically calling every Trump voter evil and racist, screw you and Spike Lee, you democrat propagandists!!

Like anyone watched the Oscars...you guys need to stop drinking in the fake news meetings

SPIKE LEE GOT HIS WELL DESERVED OSCAR! Congratulations, Spike Lee

I will mobilize to vote for Trump again!!!

Spike Lee will consider it a badge of honor to be attacked by Trump.

pattmlatimes

Spike Lee is a huge racist

Just being a spectator of the awards says a lot about you. Spike is clearly talking to others just like him.

Seems like Spike may be a little racist.

Go Spike Lee. I loved “Do the right thing”.

spike lee is a tick turd

Trumpty Dumpty, just by dumping on Spike Lee, has lost the Black vote for 2020 (as if he was getting any in the first place).

He looked like a moron in his purple suit and glasses and his gold sneakers..zero class!

Racism doesn’t work that way, Toadwielder. Also: you’re claiming you’ve done more for African-Americans than an actual African-American president? Huh... How’s Flint doing, by the way, rust-stain? Point to it on a map real quick for us...

While I love his movies, that smug attitude isn’t gonna help him. Unfortunately he has had it for years.

Congrats on the award Spike Lee...

I wish these “stars” stop talking about political issues in these kind of activities. It takes the fun away. If they have nothing important to say just say “ thank you” and leave the stage.

Nice Gumby suit Spikey, don’t lecture me

Sickem' Spike.

That's all Trump is, a revenge president.

Is Trump STUPID, or what? I didn't even watch the Oscars, and couldn't have cared less about Spike Lee's acceptance speech. That is...until I heard Trump was whining about it. After that I wanted to see what all the fuss was about...and I can't be the only one.

Spike Lee is a bigoted racist. That speech was an angry rant!!!

'...to urge mobilization'. Yes, while collaring Trump as the hater. Who exactly are the divisive ones here?

Is this the AP or the tabloids? Report some actual news.

With everything that's going on in the world right now... seriously?

But he won't condemn the white nationalists...fitting

That’s cuz spike lee is an admitted racist who hates white people. Never seen a spike lee movie, never will. He’s garbage.

Trump helped Jennifer Hudson, too!

You left out that he acted like a child when he didn't win best picture. Oh, and is a huge racist

Poor spike last night gave him permission to be in his Element. Being the racist he is.

Goes after...as if he has the stamina for it LoL

If Hitler was Black, Spike Lee would be Heinrich Himmler.

He won't comment on his boyfriend Putin tho.

Spike Lee has always been a racist. This is nothing new. Just another Hollywood elite out if touch.

Lets think about this sentence and reflect how Trump must be removed from office because of it.

Spikes temper tantrum at The Green Books win negated any credibility he may have had.

We he have Green Book at the White House? (minus Mahershala)

Lee knew he was poking the dragon. He can take it. And he need not reply.

It worked so well for Hollywood in 2016, why not 🤗

Spike Lee did not say 'Trump' yet President Garbage decided to criticize him? 🤔

How much wealth was in that room. Let's forget about the reported 100K + gift bags.

Spike Lee is a prime example of why nobody cares about the Oscars. If all of Hollywood disappeared tomorrow, Normal America would be fine.

BabyHands proving again that he is far too busy making genius deals to watch television.

meh, perpetuating a false partisan narrative as if youtube and liveleaks aren't a thing.

Good!

Where’s the racism in the speech,not supporting Trump is not racism it is realism

Mobilization? Sounds like another terroristic threat.

Don’t worry about him Spike cause we Both know the president of the United States does exactly the same thing. He say out loud “vote for republicans” His compliant has no weight. Fake news.

Wish he would go in on that Lieutenant Coast Guard who was about to kill up everybody.

Trump goes after entertainer Spike Lee but not domestic terrorism and white supremacy. This is national emergency. blackhistorymonth stillhere oscars

Oooooh! Dat nasty ol' Trump is going after Spike Lee after Lee said stinky shit about him? Well, who ever heard of such a thing. But never fear. The media wing of the Democratic Party, AP, is there to set the record straight!

Spike needs to mobleize his community of people and get them to vote not just act like a rich guy with his dumb outfit on bet a clue . Put some money into getting things done

Thank you, I will vote for Trump again

(AP=owned by the Rothschilds.) Spike Lee didn't have the balls to say what he's said before- what he REALLY thinks about the President. So, he couched his message about 'love and hate' and 'mobilizing for 2020.' So let's stop pretending.

Loved your speech Spike Lee... Also thank you for even mentioning the native Americans, who history does not portray correctly. Love over hate! And yes, you were robbed for best picture.

I just wanted someone to pull Spikes jacket down over his butt.

On the bright side it had the least viewership in decades.😂😂😂

I missed the industry award show ... but from your headline count me as mobilized. WalkAway MAGA

What’s up with the chauffeur outfit?

DERP

Trump didn’t accomplished enough for Spike Lee: Criminal Justice Reform, Lowest Unemployment numbers in History, Tax Cuts,etc.

The so called president shouldn't try for minute in his soar ass and work like a realpresident for once in his apathetic life.

Oh Donnie...you're messin with a very SMART guy here...MUCH smarter than your regular targets....

Of course he did, he only goes after people he fears.

Trump “goes after” Lee, AP “goes after Trump. It’s called “Monday”.

realDonaldTrump doesn’t know about the 1st amendment. Should we tell him?

That’s because Lee went after him. That’s why I haven’t watched in years. Too political.

Seriously, is this considered news?

Build The Wall!!!

Why bother - all he needs to say is 'consider the source.'

When a 60 yr+ shows up dressed like a 16 yr old and has a sissy tantrum when he doesn't win....Did they give him the mini sharpton statuette?

Spike Lee doesn’t care what donald says

And what is wrong with telling people to vote in 2020?

Dang!!! look at all these Russian bots. 😂😂😂😂 you guys are crazy.

Your not in his league don, you will lose the little black numbers you have.

Congratulations to Spike Lee for winning the Oscar.

In an interview Ang Lee fondly referred to his “little brother Spike” and last night Samuel Jackson couldn’t hide the friendship both share. Thanks for Nola Darling, Tracy Camilla Johns, Giancarlo Esposito and Danny Aiello.

What if Donald Trump tweeted and no one picked it up? Or examined it or turned it over or measured it or smelled it or shouted at it or cried over it or commented on it? What if no one picked it up? What if we just flushed it, instead? ~ Gonna try, starting right after this

Well didn’t Spike go after him? Fair game.

He basically inferred that voting for Trump is voting for hate. NO credit whatsoever for what the President has done for the Black community. Ignorant.

There’s nothing wrong with freedom of speech. This is something that everyone enjoys the right to. If Spike Lee feels compelled to speak his mind so be it, Trump should never be upset with someone for speaking their mind because he does it whenever and wherever he wants to.

Tell me who doesn’t trump “ go after” since he’s loving away on a vacay ... please stay away .. for good

FakeNews

Ha it doesn't even matter donaldjtrump is a shoe in

Of all the Real Issues affecting the world today, the Tweeter in Chief in the WH decides that an Oscar acceptance speech is the most pressing problem he faces. Not Presidential!

Build the wall Trump 2020🇺🇸

spike lee needs to stop renting outfits from prince's family

Hah is that what he said?

Donald trump is such a jackass. Does he have a job? One would think he has nothing to do other than attack citizens.

Never heard of him.

It was about time Spike Lee received an Oscar. Seriously.

Spike is definitely the one. Bring it. This will be hilarious.

So much attention on some perverted Spike Lee.. if he s putting his sniff-worn nose in politics, should president just listen to his blabber? 'Prominent' Hollywood ass can do something for the good cause every day... with his own money. How much good he did?

Since when is saying “Choose LOVE over HATE a racist statement? Only to the hating racist I suppose 🤨🤨🤨

He can keep making shitty movies

He is so shallow, always has to turn the spotlight to himself. He;s not content to let anyone else be the center of attention. DonaldTrump is mentally ill, no doubt about it

I think you meant to say, Spike Lee went after President Trump and President Trump responded.

Slow news day for AP.

Trump goes after everybody that disagrees with him and he's got a devil's Network of apostolate. GOP has written off the Afro-American vote. The GOP is caucasian as Iowa, which is over 90% that. GOP is not inclusive, and the devil's Network hates on those that are integrated😱

This is what the Oscars has become. That's why they lost viewers.

The ratings last night’s Oscars are the second lowest ever, and Spike Lee is getting political no wonder no one watches this shit

His next movie should be called “ Useful Idiot “ . It’s a story about the RACIST History of the Democrat Party, and how they use people to promote THEIR agenda of a One World govt

I wonder what it is about Spike Lee that annoys Trump.... hint: this excuse for a president is dogwhistling to his base, again.

Donnie and Spike ,both talk but say nothing!!Maybe Spike can replace Pence!!

LOL. Poor little old spike lee takes a swipe and the President and you turn it around making little old spike the victim. FakeNews JussieSmollettHoax

Ignore Trump’s stupid ass...he’s just trying to get into the Oscar convo. The oscsrs were great. Don’t tarnish it with trump’s bs.

So Lee says mobilize Love vs Fear while using hate and fear directed against Trump and his supporters... Seems logical. Like getting rid of discrimination by discriminating against someone else.

Funny he didn’t even mention his name. Big crybaby!

He was reading and still muffed it. It looked like a pat, planned use of his time that he knew he was going to have to deliver it. Not only 'acting' like it was spontaneous would have been better but it would have given the impression that he has a bit of humility and is genuin

Tit for tat they say....🤷‍♀️

Spike Lee goes on sore loser rant and tries to leave building after his film didn’t win best pic. After preaching to peasants about morality 30 min prior 🤣. Oscars

Your story should read something like “while some consider the president’s blaming both sides to be racist, it must be noted that his condemnation of white supremacists and neo-nazis was total & unequivocal” But it’s unsurprising that you ignored the latter part. FakeNews

Spike is dressed like the postman on the Mister Rogers' neighborhood show.

I think this is Spike’s IDGAF face.

Trump said anything. It must get repeated all week.

Disturbing video about R. Kelly.

Of course he did. Anyone with class would ignore. This loser can’t let anything go. Yep. Times up. Trump is getting the “you’re fired” send off latest 2020. Although I am of the opinion he is up to his chin in cons and crimes NOW, he should be impeached now because every single

Yawwwwwn.

Someone scared?

Another reason we love our POTUS. Resistards like Spike Lee find comfort and affirmation living inside their racist fantasies. See JussieSmollett debacle. No jokes about him at the Oscars.

Awww...give poor realDonaldTrump a break. He’s got a ton of “executive time” to use up!!! 😂

Spike Lee needs to get over himself.

Do the right thing. Dump Trump.

To the surprise of no one; he probably choked on his Big Mac.

Who is the the most T.V binging president in the history of the U.S. ( at least after t.v. as we know it came to be ).... 🤣😂..

I'm glad realDonaldTrump isn't so busy that he doesn't have time for this. Wouldn't want to tax his tiny brain!

no he urged to further divide the country.

spikelee was robbed... AGAIN!!!

Because our president is an ass.

Over these so called celebrities making everything political. Does Spike really think people care what he has to say? Another millionaire yapping away. Celebrities have no clue the struggles of the average american family.

Trump WhinyLittleBitch

Spike just got off his second job delivering telegrams and didn't have time to change out of his uniform?

Spike sounded like an idiot.

Good. Spike loved Trump until he became potus n look at African American unemployment record numbers in the positive. Trumps done more for African Americans in 2 yrs than Obama did in 8

LOVEOVERHATE

This is why I’ve stopped watching the Oscars.

About Time!!!!

In other news our standing in the world will once again go down this week when our precious flag is standing next to the flag of a murderous dictator how do you think the rest of the world perceives that?

tRUMP is in terminal panic mode. 😄

A rebuttal is “going after”? News has gotten so shady. Thanks for reminding us

The grifter in chief has no idea what a racist comment is. I suggest he look at his past tweets and comments to understand

Don't worry, nobody watched it....just look at he ratings

Deep state operative=Spike Lee. Triangle eyes on hat? Symbolism will be their downfall. M2Madness realDonaldTrump

Who is the bellman?

If democrats want to win the 2020 election the only candidate that could do it right now is Amy Klobuchar

GOOD! Spike Lee is a racist himself!!

Donald John Trump having a Twitter tantrum when someone says something he doesn't like is akin to any REAL human scratching their elbow when it itches. Trump here recognizes that Lee can sway black voters. As usual, Trump becomes reactionary.

Just friendly competition vs rants and raving about racism

I see a Beto O'Dork & Jussie Smollett 2020 Democratic ticket in the making!!!🤣😂🤣

Not only is realDonaldTrump a racist, he’s the ultimate bore at this point

As Spike made it political. Lee is such a hypocrite but most of Hollywood is fake

Spike Lee is a racist. He is outspoken about White's revitalizing Harlem while he lives in a penthouse in Manhattan

When will these celebrities realize we don't care about their opinions.

Hay spikey how's the Knicks these days 🤔🤔 First class FUGAZI

realDonaldTrump needs to learn that he doesn't have to address every single criticism leveled at him. He is wasting our time.

Lol spike lee?

Trump demands loyalty from all subjects

spike literally said choose love over hate and trump got racism from that?!

Trump apparently has nothing more important to do than pursue private citizens who exercise their 1st Amendment rights

A successful, influential, accomplished, rich and highly intelligent black man is more than trump’s fragile racist ego can take.

2020: ANYBODY BUT TRUMP!!!

Why the heck does he look like a bus driver and Penguin from Batman?

Spike Lee is a bigot, he will NEVER be president

That is when I changed the channel. Jerk

I’m never watching the Oscars again if that crap movie one and that actor for Queen movie this oscars was rigged and the worst ever produced

Since when are the Oscars a political arm of the DNC and the left A cesspool of leftist trash it is.

If you read Trump's tweet, he basically admits he's full of 'hate' and racism by his response. He also calls himself 'your' president, not 'our' -- WORST. PRESIDENT. EVER.

Very Presidential

Trump can't stand that his racist base won't be enough to get him elected.

I ordered some knuckle rings like that and they never arrived. I think Mr. McFeely here has been going through my mail.

Meanwhile it took days for any comment on the Coast guard terrorist with a hit list of Democrats and a small armory.
