Black men did not cause Trump to win the election. White and Hispanic people did. Approximately 76% of black men voted for the betterment of this country and people keep focusing on the small group of men who did not change the election. White women, farmers, Hispanic males all voted for the felon who screwed them the last time. Lets focus on them and stop blaming black males for this failure . I was horrified to see the majority of white women voted for a rapist and a congress that would take away their rights, lets focus on them.

Trump will not be in office forever. It will eventually be removed again. One way or another.

Great question. Racism continues to thrive among those supporting this statue.
