Mike Tyson‘s son Amir Tyson just reacted to former president Donald Trump getting shot at during a rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday. Interestingly, he highlighted an unusual comparison between Trump and Tupac Shakur, who was shot and killed in September 1996. Not to mention, a special tribute from 50 Cent to Trump seems to have also caught his eye.

The 45th President of the United States became a victim of an assassination attempt during his speech in a rally in Pennsylvania, where a 20-year-old man named Thomas Matthew Crooks has been identified as the perpetrator. The Secret Service agents shot and killed the attacker, but his motives are still unknown. 

The incident transpired months away from presidential elections, which may change results of the upcoming elections. The horrifying incident has sent most people into disarray, while Amir shared his thoughts about it on his Instagram story hours earlier.

“I just heard someone on YouTube say trump getting shot and standing up with a fist was the most gangsta moment since pac got shot five times twice in the head and survived and gave the middle finger on stretcher. I might have to agree with that bro Imao”, wrote Amir. The 25-year-old American rapper was fatally shot in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas, Nevada. 

The incident occurred when Shakur’s car was stopped at a red light at the intersection of East Flamingo Road and Koval Lane. Amir even shared a video of the animated reenactment of the shooting, claiming, “Lol watch the whole thing. This whole situation is beyond crazy man Imao”. And finally, Amir highlighted 50 Cent’s tribute to Donald Trump, who survived the assassination attempt.

What’s your perspective on:

Amir Tyson comparing Trump to Tupac—Is this a bold truth or just plain outrageous?

Have an interesting take?

The award-winning American rapper mocked up a photo of Donald Trump on the front of his iconic Get Rich or Die Tryin’ album cover. During one of his shows last night at Boston, 50 Cent had the picture on the big screen behind him as he performed ‘Many Men’ for the crowd gathered for his show. The choice of song clearly is a nod to his assassination attempt.

The lyrics of the song read, “Many men wish death upon me / Blood in my eye, dawg, and I can’t see / I’m tryin’ to be what I’m destined to be / And n****s tryin’ to take my life away”. 50 Cent even posted the edit to his X account, writing, “Trump gets shot and now I’m trending”. In a later X post, 50 shared Trump’s bloodied picture in front of the American flag, writing, “I know the vibes. We are all in trouble now.”

It’s interesting how a near tragic incident seems to have forced people to compare the former president to a rapper/songwriter/activist. You be the judge of the comparison from Amir, and let us know what you thought about 50 Cent’s tribute to Trump.
