It’s not surprising to hear race card antics from the left about President Trump.
Representative John Lewis (D-GA) told the audience at the Congressional Black Caucus Town Hall on Civil Rights that President Trump essentially spurred racists, “to put on those hoods, put on those sheets.”
From Breitbart.com:
“When we had this most recent election, it helped create the climate and environment to bring out something that had been a little asleep, and people feel like now they can just get away with doing everything.”
Lewis continued:
“The man that some people voted for just made it very comfortable for people to put on those hoods, put on those sheets, and I tell you, if we’re not mindful or watchful, we are going to go back. We’ve come too far, made too much progress to go back. I don’t want to go back. I want to go forward, and we must go forward.”
Lewis, along with fellow Congressional Black Caucus member Representative Maxine Waters (D-CA), are on a mission to push extreme anti-Trump rhetoric to convince black voters that Trump and his administration are racists in a desperate effort to drive black voters to vote in the 2018 elections.
