If Donald Trump is waiting for an apology from the cast of Hamilton, he will continue to wait.
Actor Brandon Victor Dixon, who plays Aaron Burr in the celebrated musical, told CBS This Morning that “there’s nothing to apologize for.” Dixon gave Vice President-elect Mike Pence an onstage earful about equality at the end of Friday’s performance.
Trump has taken to Twitter to demand an apology.
Dixon said Hamilton creator Lin-Manuel Miranda had a hand in crafting Dixon’s remarks, although Dixon said he “made some adjustments.”
