Politicians see a block of voters and think, Let’s give them something and they’ll vote for us. We just saw one example: African-Americans made up half the voters in South Carolina’s Democratic Primary and a third of the voters in North Carolina’s primary and before the first vote was cast Joe Biden announced he’d give…
Read MoreThe first news story I read (on the internet) showed Trump tweeting out a video of a bearded Hell’s Angel-type riding a motorcycle cussing out an older man driving an SUV beside him, using the f-word seven times.
