Model and cookbook author Chrissy Teigen is donating US$200,000 to bail out protesters after U.S. President Donald Trump declared Saturday night 'MAGA night' at the White House.
Then, 15 minutes later -- after a Twitter user called the protesters "rioters and criminals" -- Teigen upped the ante.
The phrase "MAGA night" was used by Trump in a tweet Saturday morning, condemning protesters outside the White House who had gathered to speak out against police brutality, after the death of George Floyd., said the protesters "had little to do with the memory of George Floyd" and said they were "just there to cause trouble," handled easily by the Secret Service.
