Eminem has blasted Donald Trump in a new rant and claimed he ‘brainwashes’ his followers.

A TikTok user under the name Rising_Path posted a video of the rapper not holding back while discussing the former President in a close-up interview.

Em called out the Republican for appearing like a ‘man of the people’ when he cares very little about his supporters, particularly blue-collar workers.

"Watching him play to his base that thinks that he cares about them, and it’s actually the people that he cares about the f**king least," Eminem said.

"If you’re talking about his core being, you know, a majority white middle class, what I don’t understand is how in the f**k do you feel like you relate to a billionaire who has never known struggle his entire f**king life."

The ‘Lose Yourself’ rapper proceeded to slam the 77-year-old for using his charisma to ‘brainwash’ his fanbase.

"I will say this, he talks a good one," he continued.

"And if you’re in his base…let’s say you’re going to the rallies or whatever, you watch him on TV, you hear him talking this s**t, there’s part of me that understands, like, alright, he’s somehow still got them because he’s brainwashing them into thinking something great is going to happen."

This isn’t the first time Em has made his thoughts known about Trump.

In 2017, during the BET Hip-Hop Awards, a video dropped of Slim freestyling a rap about the Republican just after he was declared the President of the United States.

In the rapper’s freestyle, he begins to give praise to Obama, then quickly delves into Trump's current reign, the take-a-knee protests, tensions between the US and North Korea, and the treatment of different races.

"But we better give Obama props/ Cause what we've got in office now's/ A kamikaze that'll probably cause a nuclear holocaust," he raps.

To conclude the fiery set, Eminem then addressed his own fans and had a special message for MAGA supporters.

He raps: "Any fan of mine who's a supporter of his I'm drawing in the sand a line, you're either for or against, and if you can't decide who you like more in your spilt, or who you should stand beside, I'll do it for you with this... F**k you."

Following the set, Em told Billboard he was prepared to lose half his fan base if it meant ‘standing up for what’s right’.
