Trump clashed with the media frequently during his more than 90 minute press conference, telling multiple reporters to sit down.

{mosads}Trump chastised PBS reporter Yamiche Alcindor, who is black, for asking “such a racist question” about Trump calling himself a nationalist while campaigning before the midterms.

Trump also sparred with CNN reporter Jim Acosta, calling him a “rude, terrible person” and telling him CNN should be “ashamed” for employing him. 

Legend has been a frequent and vocal critic of Trump, taking to Twitter often to condemn Trump’s actions. Last year, Legend tweeted that Trump is “consistently loyal to white supremacists and Putin” and called him “the opposite of a patriot” for his critique of NFL players kneeling during the playing of the national anthem.

Previously, Legend campaigned for Democrats in Ohio and starred in an ad urging senators to vote “no” on confirming Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. Legend also has donated to a wide array of Democratic candidates.
