Disgusting.

I said Trump was a neo-Confederate sympathizer. This is clearly true given his defense of Confederate monuments and his support for the continued naming of military bases and assets for Confederate leaders, a position that reportedly will be rejected by Congress, even if overriding a veto is necessary.

You obviously believe Trump's Big Lie propaganda. Even if you believe Trump's ridiculously false claim that he has done "everything right" during the COVID-19 epidemic, it has been a disaster for African Americans.

<<Trump’s claim is particularly brazen given his history of racist dog whistles, his call for the death penalty for the unjustly convicted Central Park Five, the accusations of racial discrimination in his real estate dealings, his praise of marchers at the white nationalist demonstration in Charlottesville and his recent threats to call in the military to subdue the protests over George Floyd’s killing. Instead of speaking up in favor of racial justice during this week’s demonstrations, Trump has been railing at “killers, terrorists, arsonists, anarchists, thugs, hoodlums, looters, ANTIFA & others.”>>

African American unemployment now is back to the levels of at the end of the Great Recession.

Trump's legacy for African American includes disproportionate COVID-19 deaths, mounting homelessness and greatly increased food insecurity.

Trump has fought Medicaid expansion and the Affordable Care Act.

Trump is the most hateful President in modern American history, yet his supporters like to view him as a victim of others' deserved dislike of the deceitful, incompetent buffoon. Trump blocks Constitutional oversight of the House because they hate him. What incredible baloney. Hate is a two-edged sword and Trump's argument that he doesn't hate is preposterous.

The American COVID-19 catastrophe is directly the result of Trump's incompetence and mismanagement, even his "magic think" and blinding egotism. You can separate the last year of the Trump administration from the first three. He owns the COVID-19 epidemic and the resulting economic disaster.

The argument that Trump was well managing the economy before the COVID-19 epidemic is very flawed as the U.S. was riding a massive expansion of debt, including a disastrous $1 trillion pre-COVID, peacetime federal budget deficit, which now likely will be a mind-numbing $4-6 trillion.

So you're arguing that the Confederate monuments celebrating Confederate generals and political leaders are anti-slavery monuments???

Should be:

The American COVID-19 catastrophe is directly the result of Trump's incompetence and mismanagement, even his "magic think" and blinding egotism. You can NOT separate the last year of the Trump administration from the first three. He owns the COVID-19 epidemic and the resulting economic disaster.
