Leave it to Donald Trump, Jr. and Matt Gaetz to bring racism into the Super Bowl, by Hal Brown, MSW

The articles above were on HuffPost.

Articles:

Matt Gaetz’s Race-Baiting Is In Big-Game Form Before Super Bowl. The article is about the following tweet.

1. The song is named “Lift Every Voice And Sing.” 2. It was written as a Christian hymn initially sung as a celebration of REPUBLICAN President Abraham Lincoln. 3. The lyrics serve as a reminder for Americans that each generation has had to lift their voices in their community to demand and protect HUMAN rights. NOT an unAmerican song AT ALL. And we wonder why the GOP fails at galvanizing Black American voters, even with such a rich history. It’s because of horrible tactics like the ones this type of post is made of.

This is Attention seeking racism coming from Trump Junior. It is the modern day equivalent of burning a cross in the town square while wearing a Klan robe. They make it sound like “Lift Every Voice and Sing” was substituted for the “Star-Spangled Banner.” In fact it was a prelude to the national anthem along with “America the Beautiful.”

and…

Critics Drag Donald Trump Jr.’s ‘Racist,’ ‘Misogynistic’ Michelle Obama ‘Super Bowl’ Post – Social media users said Don Jr. is “just like his father” after sharing an appalling message about the former first lady.

I really don’t see why HuffPost included misogynistic in their title unless they wanted to convey that she’s as masculine as Pittsburg Steelers former player Levon Kirkland who was one of the NFL’s largest linebackers.

It takes a twisted and moronic mind to come up with a way to hurl a racial slur as ludicrous as it is disgusting at our only Black First Lady who happens to be incredibly popular and widely admired. (Link below)
