If it is not quite yet apparent to you that Donald Trump is one of the most racist and offensive people, perhaps allegations that have arisen from actor Don Cheadle will enlighten you.
During twitter combat with an abhorrent Trump supporter, Cheadle was told that he had hated Trump long before allegations of Russian interference with the election surfaced.
To clarify his sentiments towards President Trump, Cheadle responded with the following tweet:

It seems that the President of the United States proposed this question during a golf match between himself and three other white male tycoons whom he assumed would be “likeminded”. After diving into this causal conversation starter, Cheadle reports that the three other men seemed to be intensely perplexed and to explain himself Trump said: “No, no, it’s great!”
The insensitivity towards black women shown by a man that now has control over millions of black women is frightening on a level that cannot even be most effectively substantive through words.
Cheadle’s personal experience with Donald Trump’s bigotry seems damning to the Commander In Chief, but Cheadle neglected to mention it during the election as he believes “Many already know this to be in his nature. It’s not hidden. And those who can’t see it, might never. The story would have changed little.”
Numbers seem to align with Cheadle’s story as a Quinnipiac University poll shows that 54 percent of white people believed that Donald Trump’s rhetoric appealed to bigotry and 72 percent of non-white people felt the same way. These numbers are not to be ignored as Donald Trump was undoubtedly elected as President of the United States; a large portion of the U.S. population was cognisant of Trump’s bigotry, yet he still won the electorate.
Although we have had presidents who have owned slaves, been openly racist, and been involved with a myriad of deplorable situations, Donald Trump doesn’t get a pass (just like they should/should have not) and there should be agonizing cries of outrage by the American people at the inexcusable behavior of our current president.
The insensitivity towards black women shown by a man that now has control over millions of black women is frightening on a level that cannot even be most effectively substantive through words. But perhaps we can ignore all of the glaring issues with Donald Trump wanting to know if those three men had ever “F***ed a N***er” by saying that it was just locker room banter like we did when he said the best way to gain a relationship with a woman is to “Grab them by the p***y.”
God bless America.
