      Yeah, wtf. The man said racist things on day one. The reason he won the primary was because he said the racist stuff outright instead of the traditional Republican dog whistle. The only reason they say DEI is because they might still get in trouble for saying the N-word.

    Because we’ve never noticed it before. Yeah. Right. Just say he’s an outright bigot and get it over with.
