Donald Trump liked a Rihanna stan tweet about work/life balance

The man who controls the Navy crosses paths with the other, slightly more militant Navy.

The corrupting influence of President Donald Trump is vast and unquestionable. His maggot heart has enraptured one of hip-hop's most outspoken champions, not to mention the roughly 40% of Americans who approve of the constant, toxic stream of fraud and inhumanity that streams from his orbit and those who embolden him. I mention all this because early Wednesday morning (at like 12:40 a.m.), Donald Trump liked a tweet containing an excerpt of a Rihanna interview about work/life balance — it will interesting to see what effect it has on Rihanna's fanbase, the Navy.

The original quote was screencapped by Desus & Mero writer Heben Nigatu from Interview's conversation with Rihanna. The excerpt contains such lines as "My career is my purpose, and it should never feel like anything other than a happy place," and "I'll shut things down for two days, three days at a time." Perhaps not so surprising for a leader who has spent around 185 days and $100,000,000 of taxpayer money playing golf.

"Every new Rihanna interview makes me grow stronger," Nigatu wrote. "We stan a work/life balance queen!!!" Again, this was a sentiment liked by Donald Trump.

God willing, the Navy will reject this horrible development rather than lean into it, like other fanbases have.
