Fair play to John Legend.
Donald Trump’s presidential campaign team postponed a rally in Chicago yesterday following clashes between supporters and demonstrators, with concerns over safety.
Just take a look at some of the scenes in the University of Illinois after it was announced that the rally wouldn’t be taking place.

Donald Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jnr took to Twitter to vent his frustrations at the protesters involved, claiming that five students couldn’t even answer what they were there…
Ha 5 students when asked why they were protesting couldn't even answer. The participation medal/micro aggression generation is pretty sad!

Singer John Legend was quick to chime in with the reason why everyone was protesting the rally and pretty much won the argument before it even started…
.@DonaldJTrumpJr I think they were protesting your racist father. This isn't complicated.

The singer then posted this follow-up after his quotes were reported in American media:
This is not controversial. This is not news. The sky is blue. https://t.co/TZCmZEpyyS
