BET might be, but not The Root.

Any reason why liberals think a black person who supports Trump has to have something wrong with them on some way?

I love it that you all give Michael Harriot a lot of clicks on here. He is pretty spot on with this piece.

LOL at Roseanne Barr - you thought she was white - that's what they WANT you to believe...

No. Trump calls out as many white morons as he does black or Hispanic ones. Well, unless you think Rosie O'fatazz is a black.

8 types of black Trump supporters

1) Blue collar workers
2) White collar professionals
3) Small business owners
4) Those that have jobs now that didn't 2 years ago
5) Military members
6) Those with an IQ over 90
7) Those that are married and raising families
8) Those that have had their wages depressed or lost jobs to criminal aliens
9) Those that think that boys shouldn't be in the same locker rooms or showers with their daughters
10) Those that feel that they should be able to keep what they have earned
11) Those that support fair trade on a level playing field
12) Those sick of politicians playing identity politics and dividing this country
...just a quick start

In short...much like the types of white people that support Trump. This whole thread is just one more example of the identity politics of the left, trying to divide us and play blacks and whites against each other.

Sarcasm, and a pretty extreme level of bigotry, in a publication founded and funded by elite academics and major corporate types.

I'm surprised "Russian agents" and "African white-supremacists" weren't in the list.

I don't think they have something wrong with them.

I do think they are voting against their own self interest though.

Okay.

Then you do think something is wrong with them.

Yeah always nice when the left blows off racism and bigotry as “sarcasm “.

I know that was the excuse for that lady that is a NYtimes editor . She said so many hateful things about whites but she got the “sarcasm” pass .

Record low unemployment for blacks . That’s against their self interest ?

Any other examples ? I haven’t seen anything Trump is doing that is anti Black ..
