Trump Begs Erika Kirk to Sue Comedian for Mocking MAGA
The president fails to see the funny side of Druski’s skits.
Free speech champion Donald Trump has told MAGA widow Erika Kirk she should sue a comedian who mocked conservatives.
Trump, 79, shared the free legal advice during a “Happy Easter” lunch held at the White House on Wednesday.
Looking down at the assembled guests, Trump noticed Kirk, the widow of slain right-wing activist Charlie, in the audience and seemingly lost his train of thought.
“Hello darling,” Trump told Kirk, noting, “That’s a good table, I like that table. You doing well, right?”

The president then referenced a skit released last week by comedian and influencer Druski, real name Drew Desbordes, titled “How Conservative Women in America Act.”

The clip, which has been viewed more than 180 million times on X, sees Druski in a blonde wig, with a white suit, heavy prosthetics and thick white makeup, surrounded by sparklers.

Druski previously mocked MAGA by going undercover as a redneck at a NASCAR event, prompting a conservative backlash against his “white-face” disguise.
Trump went off script during a lunch on Wednesday after noticing the Turning Point CEO in his eyeline. “I think you should sue them... I told her, you ought sue some of these...”

He continued, “They’re so jealous of Erika. I said, you ought to sue, I can say—you’re not allowed to say this—you have to be nicer. Sue their ass off.”
His statement was greeted by laughs and applause before Trump reverted back to his speech: “But I want to thank all of those who are helping us honor Holy Week here.”
The Daily Beast has contacted the White House and representatives of Druski for comment.
Trump’s legal suggestion may have stemmed from online rumors that Kirk, 37, was already planning to sue Druski, 31.

A now-deleted X post by journalist Zellie Imani claimed Kirk was “gearing up to sue” the comedian.
However last week a representative for the comedian told Newsweek: “Any claim that a cease and desist was issued to Druski is absolutely false.”
Republicans suffered a major Kirk-related meltdown last year after late-night host Jimmy Kimmel included a monologue that questioned the MAGA reaction to the right-wing activist’s death.
Kimmel said, “We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it.”
ABC took Kimmel off the air for five days last September after threats from Trump-appointed FCC chair Brendan Carr to revoke its broadcasting license.
His suspension sparked an uproar over free speech, with calls to boycott ABC and Disney.

This month Trump appointed Kirk to fill a seat on the United States Air Force Academy’s Board of Visitors.
Her husband, who was assassinated last September, briefly occupied the same seat. The position will see Kirk join 16 other board members who make recommendations to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth about changes at the Air Force Academy.
