President Donald Trump called for the cancellation of the Freedom 250 concert honoring America's 250th birthday, citing the withdrawal of several performers and describing them as 'overpriced singers' and 'third-rate artists.'
Trump suggested replacing the concert with a large MAGA rally where he would deliver a speech, claiming he attracts 'larger audiences than Elvis.'
However, social media users are criticizing Trump's proposal, with many mocking his public outburst and others backing the artists who walked out of the concert.
One user pointed out the irony of Nicki Minaj's absence, given her affiliation with the MAGA movement, asking 'Why isn't Nicki Minaj saving this America 250 concert?'
The Freedom 250 concert has been overshadowed by withdrawals from multiple performers who claimed they were misled about the political nature of the gathering or became uncomfortable with its growing association with Trump and the MAGA movement.
