The screenshot contains a comment made by Del Rey that reads, “Trump all the way.” The screenshot shows that Lizzo made a reply comment that reads, “Bitch you married a grandpa with rabies and zero teeth.”

Text from the post’s caption reads, “a phony white bitch who tried to lead a mass murder Wiccan ritual against the president of the USA, publicly and violently attacked two prolific black artists who *thought* she was a friend for their political views- switches sides WITHOUT APOLOGIZING – thinking no one will notice.”
