Excellent question by Trump: “Are they friends of yours? Are you carrying water for them instead of doing honest reporting?”
>> The exchange set off a firestorm on social media as many black people balked at Trump’s suggestion of an assumed relationship between Ryan and CBC members because they are of the same race.
I would be wiling to bet a large amount of money that there is a relationship. I think it’s a very reasonable question for many, many reasons. I’ll bet there is a relationship between the CBC and the vast majority of “news” outlets, regardless of the race of the reporter. With a black reporter, the probability is even higher. That is not racist, it’s just a fact.
Show me honest data that says otherwise and then I will concede that it’s racist. If you can’t do that then shut up. (not Mr. Jeeves, the reporters and social media complainers)
