I honestly worry that a lot of folks in the media have no idea how targeted people of color feel by this president and how angry we are at his enablers.

I agree. I don't think it's really registering how scared and angry POC are.

That's all they're concerned about.

5. I agree: Just like that, huh?

Is Trump going to tell the people of El Paso that they're a bunch of criminals and rapists, MS-13 gangbangers, then concede that some of them, he assumes, are good people? Or does Trump just figure everyone's forgotten about all that (like his enablers in the media), and the people of El Paso will welcome his fly-byness with open arms? "Sure, that guy who shot up your city (checks notes) five days ago was directly inspired by my public pronouncements, but can't we just move ahead now? No? Well, it's obvious YOU'RE the real dividers!"
