President Trump fired back at director Spike Lee for the Blackkklansman auteur's Oscar acceptance speech which the Republican leader called a "racist hit."

Trump Tweeted his accomplishments benefitting African-American voters: "Be nice if Spike Lee could read his notes, or better yet not have to use notes at all, when doing his racist hit on your President, who has done more for African Americans (Criminal Justice Reform, Lowest Unemployment numbers in History, Tax Cuts,etc.) than almost any other Pres!"

Lee hadn't mentioned Trump by name, but he implored voters to "do the right thing" in the next election: "Let’s all mobilize,” he said. “Let’s all be on the right side of history. Make the moral choice between love versus hate. Let’s do the right thing!"

In the press room, after his win, Spike DID call out Trump directly, for not speaking out against white nationalists in Charlottesville last year: "That car drove down that one street in Virginia, and the president of the United States did not reject, refute, did not denounce the Klan, alt-right and neo-Nazis,” Lee said. “This film, whether we won best picture or not, this film will stand the test of time being on the right side of history."
