President Donald Trump snapped at a reporter on Tuesday who asked why Black people still die at the hands of the police, saying that “more” white people die.
This is a companion discussion topic for the original entry at https://talkingpointsmemo.com/?p=1320560
Trump added: “I don’t care at all about Blacks getting killed. But white lives matter. The Blacks don’t support me.”

Reporter should have added a follow up question: “So you think it’s okay people get killed by the police for things that only get fined?”

"So are white people,” he said during a CBS News interview, his first with one of the major networks in months.
Gee, why doesn’t he give more interviews? Back to the bunker with thee.

Between this and his daily COVID testing claims, it is clear that the President of the United States doesn’t UNDERSTAND BASIC MATH!

A post of mine from another thread:
["Trump is all in. He wants the GOP all in as a White Nationalist Party enough such that forays into deflections of this fact (such as used in the past) cannot be used because of the need to get those fully on board.
This will challenge those who still believe that they can combine allegiance to Trumpism while asserting some modicum of a sense of acknowledgement of the humanity of POC. More will be able to do this than one might think, but it will be a tough row to hoe for many."]

White people. White people. White people. More white people. White people.
How many times can Trump say “white people” in 10 seconds?

He could double it by saying “whites”.
He could halve it by saying “my only way out”

He’s all for Free Speech for all…even Black Lives Matter.
Unless he’s not.

So the police are violent thugs, but they kill everyone, so it’s okay. Really, that is is his best answer?
He really is a waste of space.
(And of course his logic is callously off.)

He is who we think he is.
And so is every one of his supporters.

He probably thinks, like any self-respecting three-year old, the more he says it the more he is right.

I know one person at work who keeps insisting that the persons who support this president are not all racists.
