Despite what the left says about President Trump, his administration’s record with visible minorities is envious.
On an end of year edition of CBS’s Face The Nation, the network’s Chief Washington Correspondent, Major Garrett, responded to the query of which story in 2019 that he wished he had reported on, or one that was under-covered in general. He said it was the President’s relationship with people of color — and qualified it by saying that it’s “complicated.”
Garrett began by saying that the President’s rhetoric is “indefensible” — even to some Republicans. He then pushes the Charlottesville “Fine People Hoax” (which we have debunked here) and the also misunderstood “send her back” comment about Rep. Ilhan Omar (read the ClashDaily coverage here) but then, he says that although Trump’s words are divisive, the President has quietly urged Republicans to do some great things for visible minorities.
“Charlottesville is what people hear and think about when they think about the president and people of color, and yet it can be fairly said that this administration, because of President Trump’s quiet prodding, has done quite a bit for funding of Historically Black Colleges and Universities, the First Step Act, which was massive first step toward criminal justice reform,” said Garrett, ”
Gee, I wonder why it is that people think of the Charlottesville comments when they think of the President? Could it be that the Media(D) refuses to correct the record on that?
