The mother of two, who is married to singer John Legend, updated the tweet after a commenter branded the protesters “rioters and criminals.” She then responded, “Ooo they might need more money then. Make it $200,000,”
Her original tweet was also a response to President Donald Trump who had tweeted about hosting a MAGA night at the White House.
Within 24 hours her tweet has amassed more than 105k retweets and 817k likes.
