And define "trash". Or maybe you can provide an example of what you are talking about?

Also, not all people are going to vote for someone just because they are of the same group. I'm a woman who is not going to vote for Hillary. I criticize her because she is wrong, I don't get mad for people criticizing her just because I'm a woman because I go deeper than that. Are you saying AA can't see past skin color? Or that they are a monolith?
