Quote: Over the ensuing five decades, a philosophical and programmatic switch occurred between the parties. Today, most white Southerners are Republicans, and almost all Black Southerners (and most African Americans nationally) are Democrats. The Republican Party is now led by a president who, like the southern Democrats of old, openly embraces the Confederate flag, Confederate monuments and white supremacy. It is difficult to argue that today’s GOP remains “the party of Lincoln.”
No, Pierre; it is not. Your personal vendetta against President Trump reeks with every stroke on your keyboard. You ought to be ashamed of yourself, but “shame” is a word not in most liberals’ lexicon.
To the contrary, the percentage of employed black Americans has risen to new heights under President Trump. You’d know that if you’d take off your leftist blinders long enough to look at employment facts rather than a personality you don’t like.
Stick this from Marc Little, Board Chairman, Center for Urban Renewal and Education, in your pipe and smoke it, rather than what you apparently smoke before penning your terribly-biased, unfounded columns:

Marc Little stated in a recent interview that he thinks President Trump has done more for the black community than any President since Abraham Lincoln…and he’s right.
You are an embarrassment to contemporary journalism…but, tragically, you are among the majority of people who call themselves journalists nowadays. You remind me of Mark Twain’s famous observation, “If you don’t read the newspapers, you are uninformed…and if you do read them, you are misinformed.” And he died before being subjected to your consistently hateful writing. (You just can’t help yourself, can you?)
I suppose I can take comfort knowing your name will be long forgotten…and even then, none too soon, I might add…before that of Mark Twain.
Oh, and by the way, what evidence do you have that President Trump “openly embraces the Confederate flag, Confederate monuments, and white supremacy?”
Geeze, you are annoying. You must spend a lot of time having coffee with Indianapolis Monthly columnist Philip Gulley. Are you two guys twins who were separated at birth? If so, I can understand why; having both of you to raise would tax the patience of any one set of parents, especially when they saw how you both “turned out.”
