The Donald hasn't just dissed Latino folks. He has dissed Jewish and African American folks too

Trump Kept Hitler’s Speeches by his Bed: Says Only Short Jews Can Count His Money, Not Blacks





Trump’s fascination with Hitler is just one form of his racist actions. In 1991, John O’Donnell, a former Trump associate, wrote an exposé entitled Trumped! The Inside Story of the Real Donald Trump. During O’Donnell’s tenure as president of the Trump Plaza Hotel, Trump told him that he hates “black guys counting my money!” He added that “the only kind of people I want counting my money are short guys that wear yarmulkes every day.” To Trump, “laziness is a trait in blacks.” Several years later, Trump didn’t bother to deny it: “The stuff O’Donnell wrote about me is probably true.”

The things that rich white men can get away with is quite notorious. Only a small number get caught, but that just shows how prevalent it is.

Supporters of the Black Lives Matter movement are distancing themselves from a Democratic National Committee resolution voicing support for their cause.

The Black Lives Matter Network said the resolution the DNC adopted at its summer meeting last week "in no way implies an endorsement of the DNC" by the group.

"The Democratic Party, like the Republican and all political parties, have historically attempted to control or contain Black people’s efforts to liberate ourselves," the group said in a statement Sunday.

Folks need to look to their own moral and political compasses and their God given wisdom to do that which is right.

to any political group because all of them have let them down at some point.

I think this makes them stronger.
