Trump’s awful Great American State Fair concert series just keeps getting more awful

Trump’s Great American State Fair concert series, scheduled for the National Mall over 16 days starting this month, doesn’t look like it’s going to happen. With only Flo Rida and Vanilla Ice still on the bill after everyone else bailed, we’re looking at a MAGA rally with musical interludes.

Martina McBride, Morris Day and the Time, Young MC, Brett Michaels, and Milli Vanilli have all announced they won’t be there. But what about C+C Music Factory?

First, they were in. Then out. Then in again. And now there’s a lawsuit.

Co-founder Robert Clivillés exited the band sometime around 2000 and went on to other projects. Freedom Williams is the guy who’s been yapping about this gig over the last couple of weeks. He wasn’t a founding member but was the lead rapper on the band’s biggest hits. He acquired the rights to the name “C+C Music Factory” in 2003. He also controls the band’s Instagram account.

Now Clivillés is threatening to sue Williams because he doesn’t want any project with which he was affiliated to have anything to do with Donald Trump. From his Instagram post:

“Freedom Williams in all honesty should not be using [the name] to tour or represent what this group stands for in any way without permission – if he was a man of honour and truth he would honestly stop.”

He’s also thinking about contacting the estate of C+C Music Factory co-founder David Cole (he died in 1995) to sue Williams “for defamation of character and the mis-use of the C&C Music Factory with racial discriminatory, bigotry, xenophobic, prejudiced, ethnic, racial discrimination and hate speech.”

Nothing brings a country together like Donald Trump, am I right?
