"This Man's Brain Is Cooked": People Are Reacting To Donald Trump's Latest Bizarre Rant And It's Really...Something

But Trump responded with comments about the New York neighborhood of Harlem, which was once considered the capital of Black America.




Trump said: “We had riots in Harlem, in Harlem, and frankly, if you look at what’s gone on, and people from Harlem went up and they protested, Stephen. And they protested very strongly against Harvard. They happened to be on my side. You know, I got a very high Black vote. You know that. Very, very high Black vote. It was a very great compliment.”

Trump weaved and rambled a little bit more before actually referencing the university by appearing to claim that Black people “agree with what I’m doing with respect to Harvard.”

Critics on social media had… thoughts.

The Press has already had a history of being fickle.
Historians do not use newspapers as a source to find facts.
Newspaper are mainly used by historians to get a "sense of the moment", so to speak.

But I can say that my son was invited to Harvard (years ago) to see if he wanted to attend. While he liked the school it was Boston that turned him off on attending.

He thinks people coming here for asylum are from insane asylums. There was another one similar the word was right but a different meaning. He needs removed.

It's Trump. Each and every day he shows he's not competent. He is not only unhinged, but totally irrational. This is no longer about Democrat vs Republican, it's about the very safety of our country. This delusional idiot has the nuclear codes!
