Donald Trump Jr. has mocked Eminem after allegedly making critical comments about his father.
The eldest son of former U.S. president Donald Trump took to X on Wednesday (June 6) to attack Slim Shady in response to a viral post claiming that he has vowed to “leave America if Trump is elected.”
Trump Jr. replied by poking fun at Em’s appearance, writing above a photo of the rapper: “Are you telling me that’s not Ellen DeGeneres????”
However, it appears that Trump Jr. fell for fake news as there’s no evidence that the rapper made such comments.

Despite this, Eminem has been made no secret of his disdain for Donald Trump in the past.
The Detroit native called out the controversial businessman turned politician on his song “Campaign Speech” which shortly before the 2016 presidential election (which Trump won).
“You say Trump don’t kiss ass like a puppet/ ‘Cause he runs his campaign with his own cash for the fundin’/ And that’s what you wanted/ A fuckin’ loose cannon who’s blunt with his hand on the button/ Who doesn’t have to answer to no one –great idea!” he rapped.
Em also called Trump a “bitch” in his verse on Big Sean‘s “No Favors” which dropped a few weeks after he took office.
Eminem’s most notable lyrical attack, however, came during his 2017 BET Hip Hop Awards Cypher where he urged his sizeable fanbase to pick a side.
“I’m drawing in the sand a line, you’re either for or against/ And if you can’t decide who you like more and you’re split/ On who you should stand beside, I’ll do it for you with this: Fuck you!” he rapped.
He continued: “The rest of America, stand up!/ We love our military, and we love our country/ But we fuckin’ hate Trump!“
