  I'm curious why the article chose to make a point of saying that Trump is actually white? Are there people out there who needed that part explained?

Curiouser for me is the need to erase the memory of Obama.

Maybe because to a lot of people he looks more orange than white?

Bill Clinton was actually the first black president.

Trump is apparently the first orange president.

 

The above reminds me of how much I enjoy putting my pet chameleon on plaid cloth...

Relevant. Having plenty of blacks in my family, I've seen that divide we see everywhere else, from those who do for themselves, are surrounded by people who don't have their head somewhere its not supposed to be. Despite all the media's playing up Obama being black, nearly all my black family, when I came over on election night to celebrate with them (even though I didn't vote for Obama), were watching other things. Then, and after, they didn't give a damn about Obama being elected. For those that did well for themselves, they weren't happy, no reason to celebrate, for those who wanted free stuff, that was already given locally in the Bay Area by city, county, and state governments. And Clinton, they didn't care about, or know about, until the thing with Monica. Was hilarious how much that issue got their attention and divided them neatly as well. Trump is the first one where more and more are jumping on board with a President, and that's because they finally see some benefit the President has to them, not in the sense of giving them free stuff and keeping them relying on the government, but doing what he can to make the country safer, which tends to be their neighborhoods, that most wind up affected with illegals and more crime. The left's care for minorities is, thankfully, increasingly opaque to them as it's been to me, they're nothing more than an extra vote the left think they own. They don't care to help these "identities", just use them for political implements and as a stepping stool to power. Submission to government and life long reliance upon others who don't give one fig about you is not a way to empowerment, it's slavery. It's humiliation. More blacks are getting it. 

 

I just hope that Trump does more of touting his successes, which has been the biggest draw, the inclusive success of "America First", because lately he's been putting too much effort into the left's strategy of visual tokenization and blacks who support him (which means they're already more conscious of these tactics) will rightfully be turned off by it.
