Donald Trump, who is not only white but the most racist person in the country, decided to unleash a completely unnecessary, bizarre and random tweet to speak on behalf of African Americans on Sunday.
Touching on the topic of the racist scandals in Virginia, the president tweeted:
African Americans are very angry at the double standard on full display in Virginia!”
This came right after his acting Chief of Staff, Mick Mulvaney, was questioned about Democratic investigations on television. To make this even more strange, Trump didn’t actually explain what he meant by “double standard.” Clearly, it was a tweet meant to simply LOOK like Trump cared about black people.
African Americans are very angry at the double standard on full display in Virginia!

And of course, the attempt failed miserably as Americans reminded the president that he had NO business or right speaking on behalf of African Americans. People also reminded Trump that we all know he’s a major perpetuator of racism and that he should worry about his own messes.
How about you let the African Americans tell us how the African Americans are feeling?

And what “double standard”? You mean how Conservatives are calling for Northam to step down while they supported Steve King after praising White Supremacy?

Northam should step down. I agree, and most Democrats also agree. What we don’t agree with is the blatant hate, racism and bigotry coming from the GOP and the President in particular. Example:https://t.co/KW8snsH4mK

Perhaps you should be concerned with the investigations into your alleged criminal activity Trump. I think that’s far more of a pressing issue than pretending to care about a double standard when it comes to treatment of“the Blacks.” Especially since you’re guilty of the same.

The guy who called Maxine Waters “Low IQ,” Don Lemon the “dumbest man on television,” and LeBron James even dumber — and who accused a black gold-star widow of lying — wants people to believe he is really plugged in to the thoughts and concerns of the African American community

No. We’re angry about the double standard on full display in DC
Northam wore a racist costume in 1984
Trump lived a life of racism from Central Park Five to “very fine people” to his racist policies
And he joked about Native American genocide YESTERDAY https://t.co/pFiSyNLDkv

Every time Trump tries to deny his bigotry and bad behavior, America will be right there to throw it back in his face.
