Rubio Warns Snoop Dogg About Trump Shooting in Music Video

March 14, 2017

Sen. Marco Rubio (R., Fla.) warned Snoop Dogg on Monday about the negative message the rapper's new music video may convey. The music video features a scene depicting a clown version of President Donald Trump being shot.

TMZ caught up with Rubio outside of Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport just outside of DC and asked Trump's primary campaign rival about the video. In the video, a clown dressed as Trump is shot by Snoop Dogg, however, the gun doesn't shoot a bullet, but has a "bang" flag drop out of it instead.

Rubio said that Snoop Dogg shouldn't have had that in his video and reminded him that presidents have been assassinated before.

"We've had presidents assassinated before in this country, so anything like that is really something you should be very careful about," Rubio said.

"We've got to be very careful about that kind of thing because the wrong person sees that and gets the wrong idea and you can have a real problem," Rubio continued. "I'm not sure what Snoop was thinking. He should think about that a little bit."
