Just another example of [b]many[/b] going back over the past several decades, of Trump’s documented racism or “insensitivity”, as some euphemistically put it.

The problem is that hasn’t been put in check leaving the door wide open for more aberrant behavior. I wouldn’t be surprised he is using tariffs for his own financial gain.

I doubt the Number 1 pick is going to get broken up over Trump. It would be nice to think the Number 2 pick doesnt care either.
