While hosting SNL last night, actor Don Cheadle made some thoughtful statements with his fashion choices.
First, as he introduced musical guest Gary Clark Jr., Cheadle made a silent statement of support for transgender youth by wearing a T-shirt that said, βProtect Trans Kids.β

And at the end of the show, Cheadle donned a Soviet Union hockey jersey, emblazoned with the name Trump on the back along with the number 45, signifying Donald Trump being the 45th president of the U.S.
