President Donald Trump told Turning Point USA CEO Erika Kirk, the widow of slain anti-trans MAGA influencer Charlie Kirk, to sue Drew Desbordes (aka. Druski), a comedian whose video skit, “How Conservative Women in America Act,” went viral for brutally mocking Erika Kirk.
Even though Desbordes didn’t explicitly name Erika Kirk in his video, he parodied her in white makeup, a blonde wig, and a jeweled crucifix necklace, imitating her pyrotechnic entrance at her slain husband’s memorial, her appearance on religious broadcasts, and other imagined private moments (like her struggling to exercise during a women’s private Pilates class or forcefully ordering an “all organic pup cup” for her small dog while at a Starbucks coffeeshop drive-thru).

The comedian’s video has gone viral (with over 7.8 million views on Instagram and 28 million on Facebook as of Monday afternoon). The video has also resulted in numerous headlines, as well as fake screenshots purporting to show Erika Kirk criticizing the comedian.
During an Easter lunch event at the White House, Trump told Erika Kirk (who was in attendance), “I said, you ought to sue, I can say — you’re not allowed to say this — you have to be nicer. Sue their a** off.” While Trump didn’t explicitly name the comedian, The Independent wrote that Trump’s comments likely referred to him.

During the now-deleted video of Trump’s comments during the Easter lunch (which was closed to the press), the president made numerous racist remarks and claimed that the federal government can no longer afford to pay for Medicaid or Medicare (two healthcare coverage programs relied on by over 40% of all Americans) because of the over $1 billion per day cost of Trump’s illegal war in Iran.
The deleted Easter Lunch video was already widely mocked because it showed Trump’s “faith” leader, televangelist Paula White, comparing him to Jesus. But during Trump’s comments, he called Somalians living in America (83% of whom have become naturalized U.S. citizens), “All stupid, crooked people… low IQ people… bad people… [who] don’t want to work.”
