<p>Chrissy's move came as #MagaNight trended on Twitter after President Donald Trump tweeted about protesters at the White House, who he described as "professionally managed" people who "were just there to cause trouble.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"The @SecretService handled them easily. Tonight, I understand is MAGA NIGHT AT THE WHITE HOUSE???" he added but when a reporter asked the former reality TV star on Saturday whether he was concerned that he was inciting more racial violence and discord, Trump denied it and responded "I don't care" to a question about encouraging his supporters to hold a counter-protest.</p>
