It was obvious from his tweets that Jussie Smollett had a raging case of Trump Derangement Syndrome — severe enough, in fact, to drive an unbalanced person to fake a hate crime by Donald Trump supporters yelling, “This is MAGA country!”

But Andy Ngo has done us all a favor and dug up Smollett’s self-directed 2017 music video, which doesn’t have fake Trump supporters but does have a fake Trump starring as the cause of all that is wrong in America, right down to our segregated drinking fountains.

Have you seen this 2017 Jussie Smollett music video? It’s an intersectional BLM/Women’s March/hijab anthem. Seen in video: fake Donald Trump & a noose. The video was directed by Smollett. Makes you wonder. https://t.co/5gUNLNeV1n pic.twitter.com/e5ImceYeqM — Andy Ngo (@MrAndyNgo) April 1, 2019

The tweets made us wonder, and this video makes us wonder even more. Smollett seems to have some sort of persecution/messiah complex going on where he’s the oppressed but also the one bound to save us all from racism and homophobia.

The night he got 'attacked' Taraji P Henson linked people to this video on YouTube it was the first thing she did — Simon (@SimonWillicome) April 1, 2019

This was his first attempt to boost his career by playing the leftist victim card, even using other peoples cards, if only this video had gotten the attention he wanted. He wouldn't have had to terrorize and lynch himself. — Bobbie Gerry (@bobbie_gerry) April 1, 2019

The motivation for the hoax becomes even clearer now: a raise and advancing music career. — Big Foot (@BigFootOnRocks) April 1, 2019

The best is when he crushes an American pie. The politically imagery here is too subtle for me to understand — Matt (@MatthewGalanty) April 1, 2019

I kind of want pie. — Live, Love, Bark, Buffalo Bills (@walder_theresa) April 1, 2019

He probably chose Subway because he couldn’t find an apple pie store open at 2am. — Blake Daily (@veryblakenews) April 1, 2019

Holy intersectional narcissism, batman! — David Lennox (@DavidLe11530642) April 1, 2019

I tried to watch, but my head began to hurt and then my brains started leaking out my ears. — Denise Bonfilio (@DeniseTheDriver) April 1, 2019

I love how a man who staged a hate crime and got away with it is lecturing me on victimhood and privilege lol. — skr (@sofakingrichard) April 1, 2019

Makes me wonder nothing.. he revealed his true character and this video just validates that character. He is just a petulant child who got away with his crime. — MProfileTrader (@MProfileTrader) April 1, 2019

Mother of god. Not even an April Fools joke. But it gets worse — just read about his FAMILY. They probably convinced him that this hoax was a perverse form of "activism"https://t.co/urYpIsOsqd — LBLfm (@listen_by_label) April 1, 2019

I'm starting to think Jussie gets off on Victimhood Porn. — Zim Zam (@ExposingUrLies) April 1, 2019

I never seen so many SJW virtue signaling tropes in one video in my life. Wow this was so bad. — ?gent Hotep (@AgentHotep) April 1, 2019

People imagine that this shit still exists today.

They create hoaxes to make it manifest.

This is part of their collective insanity. pic.twitter.com/Bo6BSfhk8T — Mike ☕️ Lyddon (@ReelProgress) April 1, 2019

Wow, this guy is full of hatred. No wonder he concocted a fake attack. He probably thought his "superb" acting and celebrity would protect him. Sounds like "privilege" (borrowing a lib cliché) — evelyn (@Elou33) April 1, 2019

The guy certainly seemed compelled to do something to oppose the Trump administration, no matter how cringe-worthy or, dare we say, fake.
