Now we know that Trump is wrong, there can only be 2 explanations for his comment:

1) He doesn’t know slavery was once a thing I think most people learn about the Triangular Slave Trade in the 6th grade at the latest, which might make him one of the stupidest people on earth (without a doubt the stupidest college graduate ever).

2) He doesn’t believe black people are human. If he actually knows about the existence of chattel slavery, then he should know that you don’t sign up for to be a slave at the unemployment office. Unless he thinks Africans consented to some sort of teleportation, then he should know they were trafficked to the United States unwillingly. And if he knows how they got here, then the only logical conclusion one could reach is that he doesn’t consider black people to be human beings.

So Donald Trump is either incredibly stupid or amazingly racist. I do not say this to disparage him in any way. I only bring up this fact to explain why I was wrong about him. I take back all of the names I’ve ever called him except for the jokes about him being orange...


And the vagina-grabbing stuff.

But aside from those 293,403 times, I offer my sincerest, heartfelt apology for calling him an illiterate white supremacist asshole.
