Trump Is Happy to Inform Suburban Voters That He Is Still a Racist
On Wednesday, Donald Trump tried out a new pitch on the suburbanites he is desperate to win back over before November: Stick with me, and the Poors won’t be allowed to bother you! In an announcement on Twitter addressed to “all of the people living their Suburban Lifestyle Dream,” the president declared he has ended the Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing rule.
As former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julián Castro put it on Twitter last week: “The AFFH rule was inspired by the Civil Rights Movement, and we finalized it at HUD to fulfill the promise of fair housing to every American. Trump is desperate, and he’s terminating it to play white identity politics in an election year.”
Designed to reverse the discriminatory outcomes of segregation and redlining , AFFH requires cities that receive federal funding to create goals to reduce segregation, and to track and publicly report their progress toward those goals.
Racist scum. . .
Trump doesn't want me in the ''burbs''....Too fucking bad I'm already there, deal with it Trump.
Trump wants to take us on a trip back in time to the 60s and early 70s. I'm guessing he learned all of this from his father being a racist slumlord. Like father, like son.
My favorite is the "suburban housewives". I believe he got roasted on Twitter for that one
