President Donald Trump is firing back at Snoop Dogg days after the release of a music video in which the rapper points a toy gun at a clown dressed like Trump and pulls the trigger.

Trump tweeted Wednesday morning: "Can you imagine what the outcry would be if @SnoopDogg, failing career and all, had aimed and fired the gun at President Obama? Jail time!"

The video is for a remixed version of the song "Lavender," by Canadian group BADBADNOTGOOD featuring Snoop Dogg. In it, Snoop Dogg shoots the Trump clown with a gun that releases a flag with the word "bang."

The rapper was also criticized over the video by Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, who lost to Trump in last year's Republican presidential primary campaign.

8. Yep he is a huge hypocrite

[Towlie]

2. The only "outcry" you'll hear from me is Trump presuming to compare himself with President Obama.

3. The clown in the White House is completely oblivious...

to how offensive his tweets are when he comments on other people from his position of power and privilege.

What a completely small, petty, ugly little man a bunch of jackasses made possible to be here in this position.

Just another reminder - among unending reminders - of how this lying scum of corruption has to go now!

6. LOL. He thinks we dispise him because he's a "Republikan" that

beat Hillary fair and square. What a dumbass.

13. Couldn't agree more.

4. Snoop Dogg's response about the video:

The rapper insisted he had not been seeking controversy with the video, telling Billboard: “When I be putting shit out, I don’t ever expect or look for a reaction. I just put it out because I feel like it’s something that’s missing. Any time I drop something, I’m trying to fill in a void. I feel like it’s a lot of people making cool records, having fun, partying, but nobody’s dealing with the real issue with this fucking clown as president, and the shit that we dealing with out here, so I wanted to take time out to push pause on a party record and make one of these records for the time being.”

7. OK #45, here is some outrage: (in a soft loving voice, just like #45 does):

"Bad dog. Bad dog. Don't do that again. Here's a nibby for you."

[Kimchijeon]

10. Thanks Snoop, he is a fucking clown

and should be derided as such. Snoop doesn't owe any apology for that.

[heaven05]

5. yeah mr. precedent

he didn't have need for the parody when during President Obama administered the country. Fuck you, you thin skinned con...racist, sexist, chicken hawk, coward, crook. Xenophobic, homophobic, Islamaphobic belong to the other two of this Terrible Triumvirate, prezidents bannon and miller. I appreciate this one Snoop......

[anneboleyn]

9. He is SO desperate for any distraction from his total and complete failure as "president"

With everything going on he really needs to take time to tweet about SNOOP DOGG and music videos. What a clown (Trump that is -- not Snoop!)

[Kimchijeon]

11. Seriously. Can you imagine if Obama had been so incompetent

And not doing his job, that he doodled around bitching about all the dipshits burning him in effigy or making racist Obama jokes?
Whining on twitter?

No, of course not... because he was a fuckin' grown up, who focused on oh, you know- DOING HIS JOB.
He was above such stupidity.

Just crazy, what level of jackassery we have fallen to.

[truthisfreedom]

12. Of course when it comes to actually shooting someone

Like killing an 8 year old American girl during an ill-executed attack that 45 ordered, he can't even take responsibility.

"I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose voters."

[juxtaposed]

14. trump just repeats what he hears on AM Radio. That quot was from this mornings bullet points.

15. Can somebody please close

Chump's Tweet account? This is so embarrassing!
