Trump may set GOP back decades with his reaction to racism scandal: GOP strategist
The Republican Party has made steady gains with nonwhite voters since the late 1990s, but President Donald Trump’s chaotic response to a racist video shared on his social media account may very well wipe out those gains before he leaves office, one GOP strategist warned on Sunday.
Early Friday morning, a video was shared on Trump’s social media account that included a short clip depicting Barack and Michelle Obama as primates in the jungle, sparking immediate outrage from Republican and Democratic lawmakers alike.
