Arsenio Hall, a Hollywood actor and comedian, notes it's interesting how Black celebrities once admired Donald Trump until he announced his run for President. The speaker hasn't spoken to him since judging a pageant. They recall Magic Johnson staying at the Trump Hotel in New York, Mike Tyson speaking glowingly about him, and friends writing rap records with references to Trump or Scarface. These individuals were heroes to roughnecks who viewed Donald as one of them, but that dynamic has flipped.
