As a matter of fact, it might take two pair to change his racial bias around. There's 17 years difference in our ages. That's the only reason I can come up with for him being 180 degrees opposite of myself.

If all the white deplorable men see women of color as white, they would try to take their privilege with them.

That could start a new civil war!.......

However, it might also cause the total collapse of the Republican party......

They've been taking their privilege for centuries. The only thing that has changed over time is now the deplorables brag about it.

All we have to do is look back at the lives of our founders to see plenty of evidence of historical origins of that thinking. Trump is enabling this awful behavior, and I just hope the renewed exposure of our highly racial roots helps us to further grow out of it.

One would think that over 100 years would be enough to cleanse our souls but recent evidence says otherwise....
