Donald Trump may have further reinforced the perception that he is at best racially insensitive, at worst a racist. The 45th President of the United States is under fire for yet another tweet that many consider inflammatory. Washington Post columnist Greg Sargent wrote a highly critical piece on the president regarding his treatment of and interactions with African-Americans.
Sargent's piece, entitled, "Trump just rage-tweeted about a prominent African American again,” went in depth about Trump's ongoing feud with LaVar Ball and NFL players. Sargent stated in the piece, "Trump’s rage-tweets about LaVar Ball are part of a pattern. Trump regularly attacks high-profile African Americans to feed his supporters’ belief that the system is rigged for minorities.” This caught the eye of the commander-in-chief who tweeted a response directly to Sargent's profile stating simply "MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN."
Some believe Trump's tweet was intended for something else entirely and was inadvertently linked to Sargent. But others are viewing this as another example of Trump being a racist.
