The orange pile of crap plays the race card.

Trump rails against vaccine equity efforts, says white people sent to 'back of the line'

Former President Donald Trump falsely declared in a weekend rally that public health authorities are denying the COVID-19 vaccine to white people because of their race.

Trump, speaking Saturday night in Florence, Arizona, accused liberals of "discriminating against and denigrating" white Americans.

"If you’re white, you don’t get the vaccine, or if you’re white you don’t get therapeutics," Trump said. "In New York state, if you’re white, you have to go to the back of the line to get medical health.”

There in lies the appeal of Trump for too many, he gives people permission to people to hold their most racist beliefs.

I remember when Q-anon was starting to get national attention & one of the news shows did a segment on a couple of followers. One young woman the interviewer spoke with was in her late 20s, with a husband & kid, living in suburbia. He asked her, "You don't really believe that the democrats worship Satan & are running a global pedophile ring, do you?" And she answered, "I don't want to, but yeah, I do." I call bullshit. She DOES want to believe those things. She uses it to justify her hate. Same with this racist shit Trump is spewing. They want to believe democrats are "replacing white people," so they can continue to hate us.

the truth is that they aren't even getting in line and we all know it. I wish the media would just freeze the effer and his effing bullshit out completely.
