Sharpton said from Baltimore, “As for his attacks on me personally, Donald Trump and I have known each other for 25 years. I marched with him on Central Park Five. I dealt with him on the birther issue. Call me a troublemaker? Yes, I make trouble for bigots. I made trouble with him for Central Park. I made trouble with him for birtherism, and I’m going to keep making trouble for bigots. As far as me being a con man, if he really thought I was a con man, he’d be nominating me for his cabinet.”
Racism is backfiring on Trump
Donald Trump has made it clear over the past week that he is running a racist reelection campaign. Trump should avoid calling anyone a con man if he knows what’s good for him. Donald Trump is one of the biggest con men of all time. He has built an entire cabinet out of people who no values which are only out to graft and con in a bid to use the government for financial gain. Al Sharpton burned Trump to the ground.
The ugliness that Trump is trying to exploit in the underbelly of America is real, but it is backfiring on him and unifying the majority against the evil that he is trying to spread.
