Trump fan & notable racist Carl Paladino rails against Obama on @NPR. They cut him off at "The people want the raccoons out of the basement"

Twitter twits from the Big City, not knowing how a raccoon will literally rip apart your basement should they sneak in and set up "house".
These professional bigots see the phantom darkness in others when they are ignorant and blind to their own.

"Raccoons" is a reference to a widely circulated internet post by some &0-year old guy who offered up an analogy to explain why Trump is so popular despite his supposed "vulgarity", "nastiness", etc. It has nothing to do with Obama or racism.
Here, go to the source

Paladino sez, “The people want the raccoons out of the basement.”
Media reports that Paladino sez, “Us Trump people hate coons.”

If he had said we wanted the raccoons out of the white house, that would be racist, I think.

Just Google ‘raccoons in ny’ as you’ll see they’re a big problem in NY.

Honest question; how did this cute little gray animal come to be an insult to African Americans?
