Jussie Smollett did not come up with this on his own. Jussie is very chummy with the democrat leaders. They needed to push a crazy bill through the Senate making Lynching a Federal crime. So how do they get support for that?

Yes, the story about wanting a higher salary is a red herring.
Jussie thought if he pulled this off he’d be a “made man” in the Dim party.
