Smear of the week.
The Dems are getting killed over their opposition to tax reform, it’s suicidial for them to oppose MAGA, they can’t find any collusion or evidence of mental incapacity. And President Trump is locking up a lot of the coveted white vote.
In short, the Dems have nothing. They’re desperate. Their only electoral hope in 2018 depends on getting a lot of minorities to turn out.
So, what better way to whip up those minorities than by painting the President as a racist? Plant a fake vulgar story, and the outrage will be so great that no one will even have time to notice it’s a fraud!
