The former US president’s bride claimed that “any average person” would be in jail if he did as Smith did, saying: anything”. “If the average person did that he would be in jail, he would be locked up,” Lara Trump told FOX Business on Friday. He added: “At least they would have been arrested or interrogated by the police at this point.” Smith took to the stage and slapped Rock during the 94th Academy Awards last Sunday after the comedian told a joke about his wife Jada Pinkett Smith. Rock’s wisecrack was aimed at Pinkett Smith’s buzzcut, a style he has embraced since being diagnosed with alopecia. Expressing her thoughts on the shocking Oscar incident, Lara Trump claimed that Will Smith escaped with the slap of Chris Rock because he is a “Hollywood star”.
