Trump's silence on Waffle House shooting speaks volumes

Silence.

This has been Donald Trump’s response to Sunday’s bloody massacre at a Tennessee Waffle House that killed four people of color and injured four others.

####

There are, however, two undeniable reasons Trump has refused to say anything about the shooting: He doesn’t want to. And he doesn’t have to.

Trump seems to think that most people of color are a nuisance to America. They are not worthy of condolences from the president.

Whether those who support Trump agree with his decision to remain silent, they are not demanding that he speak up. Even his enablers within the walls of Congress have not questioned the president’s silence.

be so proud.

It was Kanye who famously said.. George Bush doesn't care about Black People.. well stupid, what do you think DT thinks about them?

Of course, his enablers aren't speaking to this but I wish it would get written about all over the land. Glad to see this from the Chicago Tribune.

Mahalo, Demovictory
