2. Afro-American?

Afro-American
1. a hyphenated word derived from the prefix 'Afro-', meaning African and the noun 'American', meaning a citizen of the United States of America.

2. used to describe an American of African descent.

3. a term which has fallen out of favor in recent years for the more politically correct two word phrase 'African American'. Possibly due to the fact that people think that the prefix 'Afro-' does not exist or is in some way derogatory. And believe the noun 'Afro', describing a popular 1970's hairstyle is the only definition available.

I was seriously pissed off about their monopoly and horrible service.

They have gotten so much worse by now.

The GOP can't even attract marginally qualified people to work in their Cirque De Moron administration, let alone get the best of the best. Why would any world class, respected and knowledgeable person, black or otherwise, tie their future to Trump's sputtering, if not criminal, balderdash?

Republicans are stuck with their ridiculous third tier experts so let them keep dragging out all these babbling Trump bootlickers, it only reinforces the bumbling idiocracy they have created.
