Trump’s Alleged Black Outreach Died Decades Before It Was Ever Born

“…Not only did he neglect to deliver his recent “Black outreach” remarks to actual Black people, he based his entire “appeal” on racist and woefully inaccurate stereotypes that have been passed down through the ages. Like countless other Republican adherents to the Southern Strategy, Trump “led” with the basic premise that all of Black America is a hell-hole mired in crime, poverty, substandard education, and untreated medical illness.

As the mythology goes, these misfortunes are visited upon Black Americans exclusively because our feeble minds have been brainwashed by the Democratic Party plantation.

Never mind the scores of White Americans in Appalachia, the Deep Red South, and the Rust Belt, who religiously vote Republican, and still live in the exact same socioeconomic conditions Trump describes.”
