Donald Trump does not shy away from picking fights with celebrities.
And when it comes to picking fights with women, he does so almost gleefully.
But Trump may have gone too far in a recent Truth Social post after he came for one of the music world’s legends: Rihanna.
Reacting to something Rihanna did three years ago, Donald Trump lashed out at Rihanna and sparked the ire of her fans.

Trump Comes at Rihanna for 3 Year Old Activism
When you’re the President, people are going to speak out against you.
It’s a protected form of speech to criticize elected officials, even if you’re a bit nasty about it.
But private citizens are supposed to be protected from backlash from government officials or entities. However, Donald Trump isn’t a big rule follower, so he often used his bully pulpit as President to lash out at critics and attempt to silence them.
Now, from atop his retirement throne, Trump is taking aim at Rihanna.
In 2020, Rihanna visited a place called Cadillac Ranch just outside of Amarillo, Texas. But the ranch doesn’t provide beef, or eggs, or any sort of animal product – it provides a canvas for the enterprising graffiti artist.
At Cadillac Ranch just off I-40, a line of Cadillacs are planted nose-down into the ground. The art installation is covered with (welcomed) graffiti from visitors who have added their marks over the years, and Rihanna is among those.
While at Cadillac Ranch in 2020, Rihanna painted “F–K Trump” on one of the cars. It was a silly subversive gesture, although it certainly sparked offense among Trump supporters.
She probably didn’t expect to still be hearing about it three years later from the man himself, however.
Rihanna will be performing the halftime show for Super Bowl LVII this weekend, and Trump and his followers have some thoughts about it.
Trump v Rihanna
Former White House physician Ronny Jackson wrote on Truth this week, “Rihanna spray painted ‘F*** Donald Trump’ on a car at the Cadillac Ranch in Amarillo. She’s made a career of spewing degenerate filth while badmouthing America every chance she gets. Why is the NFL showcasing this crap? Rihanna SHOULD NOT be the halftime performer!!”
And Trump re-truth’d the post, adding the caption, “Without her ‘Stylist’ she’d be NOTHING. Bad everything, and NO TALENT!”
But in Rihanna, Trump may have bitten off more feud than he can chew. She’s enormously popular and influential in the music sphere.
Like Marjorie Taylor Greene and her infamous brief feud with Dr Dre, Trump is wading into a pop icon rumble he can’t hope to win.
Fans are already defending their Queen, with Trump left looking like a man holding a bag of sour grapes.
