President Joe Biden and every living former U.S. president, with the exception of former President Donald Trump, are descendants of slaveholders, a report by Reuters revealed Tuesday.
Former presidents Jimmy Carter, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and Barack Obama are reportedly direct descendants of slaveholders. Obama is reportedly a descendant of a slaveholder through his white mother’s side.
The report determined that Trump was not a decedent of slaveholders because his ancestors came to the United States after Americans abolished slavery.

If he were not puissant,they would have dispatched him long ago--or perhaps even ignored him,
if he did not have the support of millions of truth seeking, patriotic Americans,
if his threat were not believable,
if he were not personally powerful,
Trump is in fact all of these things.
Millions of Americans realize all this. That's why they support him so wholeheartedly. They are the just, the truth-seeking, and the patriotic.
Those who do not are fools, who have allowed themselves to be led by very evil people.
That should disqualify him. It should be a requirement.
Jamaican side of VP Harris (her father’s side) included big time slave owners, but this piece conveniently left off VPs.
That’s funny!
He's not any sort of decedent.
Golly, I sure hope not. Last I looked he was very much alive.
And quite frankly, everyone on the planet is decended from slave owners, slave traders and slaves.
Used to be a real common thing world wide. If that damages your amor propio learn to deal with it.
Reality don't care.
The irony !
Almost all of the GOP Canidates are. Ivan’s think of one.
They’ve already said something not terribly different about his grandfather.
The others I understand, but GWB is a surprise. His grandfather (or perhaps great GF) helped found the United Negro College Fund and that side of the family was dyed in the wool Republican abolitionist. Longest history of slavery involvement is in Obama’s Muslim and, no probably his white Communist, ancestry.
WHO CARES?!?!?!?!?!
Grandpa Obama was a MAu MAU tribesman.
He caused lots of trouble in Kenya when it was a British colony.
They finally caught him & he spent the rest of his life in prison-—died there.
Obama’s hate for the Brits is easy to see.
“Trump was not a decedent of slaveholders because his ancestors came to the United States after Americans abolished slavery”
That’s the real news. Trump is the first President to be descended from the Great Migration of the late 1800s, just like most of my family, and I bet a lot of other people’s families.
Puts his conflict with the “deep state”, who are really just a new name for “the establishment”, aka “East Coast WASPs who can trace their lineage back to the Mayflower” in perspective.
Obama’s Father was descended from people that enslaved others and sold them to the slave traders...
No his paternal grandfather got thrown out of Germany, and his mother was Scots.
Do I really need to add /jk or /sarc to that one?
His grandfather made his fortune in real estate in New York, and tried to retire to Germany, but was deported because he had emigrated to avoid the draft. As had Einstein. Both made more consequential contributions to their new countries, America, and Switzerland, respectively, and the world for tha matter, than they would have as cannon fodder.
Smart moves. I had an ancestor who served in the German army (this was not in the 20th c), in wartime, then met and married, and they bailed out for the US. That turned out to be a break for me. :^)
America isn’t the only country that had slaves. Lets get that straight.
