The fact that Trump's jaw-dropping assertion that he's done more for African Americans than any president with the possible exception of Lincoln as just Trump shows just How Far We've descended as a country. Leave aside the notion of whether or not Trump is racist or not (though he obviously is). The fact that someone could make such a megalomaniac statement while still sitting in the Oval Office and 45% of Americans just shrug or nod their heads in agreement is - - - mind-blowing and utterly disappointing at the same time.
This statement is aimed at his base and not African Americans.
This is true, but it's still an outrageous claim to make.
