Donald Trump calls Madonna ‘disgusting’ following her women’s march speech

US President, Donald Trump has directed a scathing tirade at singer Madonna calling her disgusting for her speech during the Women’s March against Trump's presidency last week in Washington.

Trump in an interview with Fox News Channel’s Sean Hannity, aired on Thursday evening, blasted Madonna, 58 for her rousing oration during which she said that she’s “thought an awful lot about blowing up the White House,” and dropped three f-bombs.

“Honestly, she’s disgusting. I think she hurt herself very badly. I think she hurt that whole cause,” Trump said.

“I thought her, and a couple of others. But I thought she was in particular — I thought what she said was disgraceful to our country,” he concluded.

Madonna had made the statement when she was addressing some opposing members of the march, and was clear on her feelings that this moment is “the beginning of a much-needed change.”

“Yes, I’m angry. Yes, I am outraged. Yes, I have thought an awful lot about blowing up the White House, but I know this won’t change anything,” she said. “We cannot fall into despair. As the poet W.H. Auden wrote on the eve of World War II: ‘We must love one another or die. I choose love'” she said.

The singer later took to Instagram to clarify her speech explaining that she does not encourage violence and felt that parts of her speech were taken “wildly out of context.
