“Look at these guys, ‘Blacks for Trump,’ ” Trump said, quoting their sign, on Dec. 8, 2017. “I love you. I love you. By the way, now that you bring it up, black home ownership just hit the highest level it has ever been in the history of our country. Congratulations.”

There is a problem with this statement by your illegitimate president; it’s all a lie. First of all less than 10 percent of all black men and women slightly approved of Trump in a recent poll. Secondly, home ownership by blacks in America is not at a high level.

Black home ownership reached its highest level in 2004 at 49.1 percent. It has fallen every year since. In 2016, home ownership for African Americans dropped to 41.6 percent; lagging behind non-Hispanic-whites, Hispanics, Asians, and Native Americans.

Of course none of this should surprise you. It continues to be a fact that if Trump’s lips are moving, he’s lying. His lifelong habit of ignoring the truth and offering alternative facts is the only way he can speak to others.

Trump knows nothing, and has done nothing in his life. He has failed badly as your illegitimate president. He was failing in business in 2005 when he took the Miss Universe Pageant to Moscow. After returning to the United States, he began to have success in his real estate business. This is why Trump refuses to offer his tax returns for scrutiny by the American people.

I remain confused and disappointed. How can anyone continue to support Trump after all the immoral actions he has taken, and his despicable verbal assaults on good men and women. How can millions of men and women accept a man who lies constantly about the important issues in our nation? Why are they willing to allow a sexual predator, and a philanderer to remain living in our White House?

If hypocritical Republicans will not remove him from office, we can remove his power by voting all GOP politicians out of office. The revolution begins on November 6, 2018. Join us; you’ll be glad that you did.
