In the immortal words of red rock singer Bompton rapper YG and the late Crenshaw legend Nipsey Hussle, “F*** Donald Trump!”
Election Day is getting closer and closer and the campaign shenanigans are about to begin in earnest. According to a new report from News One via APNews, Donald Trump plans to not only energize his MAGA base but also try to bring new voters under his red, white and blue tent of black voters.
Trump is reportedly pressuring his team to organize a large event at Madison Square Garden featuring hip-hop artists and black or Latino people who Trump believes will sway the melanin crowd. Despite these sad attempts at pandering, there is evidence that Trump and his conservative cohorts don’t really see the value in spreading their message to everyone.

The Trump campaign has removed a key coalition member and has not announced a replacement. Republican minority outreach offices across the country have been closed and replaced by businesses such as check-cashing stores, ice cream parlors and sex toy stores. And campaign officials acknowledged they are weeks away from implementing a targeted program.
Looking back on the past eight to 10 months, the only things Trump was trying to offer black America were dorky sneakers, the belief that a mug shot would make them relate to him, and popping into Chick-fil-A underneath it all. The assumption is that if you want to sell chicken, a black person has to be there.
Damn Donald Trump.
