All the time their brain stems are awash in serotonin. Causing them to become numb and resistant to any compromise. 'Cause Fox made it a dirty word, like liberal. It just has to be exhausting.

They're probably hoping "The Don" ships him and all the other blacks back to Africa.

The Mexicans too.

Make America "Whites Only" like in the "Good Old Days". (That never were)
