the haitian/american community deserves our gratitude and our respect. and i want you to know you have my respect. the haitian people deserve better, and that s what i intend to give them. ly give them better. we have a lot of commonly shared values. maybe full shared values. i m wanting to be president of all americans. that s everybody, and whether you vote for me or you don t vote for me, i really want to be your greatest champion, and i will be your champion. i m running to represent haitian americans and african americans and asian americans and everyone who lawfully resides in our borders. okay. well, what a difference a year makes, i guess. that s donald trump talking about how much he loves and respects the haitian people and everything about the haitian people except for the s-hole
wheats over all others. we have evidence now in the state of alabama. we have evidence now in virginia. we have state evidence in local races across america, in delaware county, which has never put a democrat on the county board, now having democrats this past year sweeping into office there. this is such a losing proposition. it s not even cynical because being cynical suggests you are doing something that is bad for the country but helps you politically. this just hurts. i promise for people that are watching out there, you think there are that many racists out there, you are wrong. this, women are rising up, minorities are rising up, black americans rose up in alabama, young americans are rise up. this is not wishful thinking. this is reality.
the coalition of the insin dent, the nonwhite voters are energ e energized. these kind of comments will rebound to the republican party s detriment unless they find a way to distance themselves. it may be too late now. i think it s too late now. they simply refuse to show any moral courage when it comes to standing up to the racist comments made by the president of the united states, and we ve seen this time and again. and andrea, when you talk about this coalition, yes, it s black americans and hispanic americans and asian americans. it s the people who are bolting away from the republican party for some time. you also have young millennials out there who now two-thirds of young ma lin yillennials breaki from the republican party. this expedites that. is this why we see people like
