Trump Made the Oscars ‘Moonlight’ Mishap About Him

If you watched the Oscars last night then you probably are still recovering from some secondhand embarrassment with the whole “Moonlight”/”La La Land” mishap. I mean, I know I’m still cringing. 

One person who is not stressing over the situation but has basically taken the blame for EVERYTHING, is Donald Trump. Yup, the President of the United States.

In an exclusive interview with Breitbart, Trump said that the mishap probably happened because “they were focused so hard on politics that they didn’t get the act together at the end” and that “something special was missing,” according to Bustle. Yeah, because that makes sense. 

The full interview has yet to be released but Bustle reports that Trump also discussed healthcare and taxes. Priorities, man.
