Thus far, feminists have yet to come out and publicly condemn Eminem for sexism, misogyny, or “toxic masculinity.”
The Fall of Eminem
Over the past two months, Eminem has criticized the President and expressed annoyance with the latter’s refusal to respond to his assertions. In October, his freestyle rap slammed President Trump as a racist, war monger, xenophobe, and a hater of all immigrants. This is in spite of evidence to the contrary. After “The Storm” came national attention of Americans either expressing their support or opposition to Eminem’s lyrics.
Many people were surprised by President Trump’s decision to ignore Eminem. The Commander-In-Chief is known for biting back at his critics. However, the President seemingly decided that Eminem simply was not worth it. Since then, Eminem has bemoaned President Trump’s silence, noting feelings of frustration.
Days ago, the rapper stated that watching the news stresses him out and that he has “lines ready” if President Trump responds to him.
