The Washington Post’s Greg Miller reports, and we have nothing to add:
In unguarded moments with senior aides, President Trump has maintained that Black Americans have mainly themselves to blame in their struggle for equality, hindered more by lack of initiative than societal impediments, according to current and former U.S. officials.
After phone calls with Jewish lawmakers, Trump has muttered that Jews “are only in it for themselves” and “stick together” in an ethnic allegiance that exceeds other loyalties, officials said.
Trump’s private musings about Hispanics match the vitriol he has displayed in public, and his antipathy to Africa is so ingrained that when first lady Melania Trump planned a 2018 trip to that continent he railed that he “could never understand why she would want to go there.”
Ladies and gentlemen, the President of the United States.

Not my fucking President.
over the course of almost 4 years I have only slipped once using the the P-word along with the T-word.
I have also eliminated the word 'right' from my vocabulary.
How many times a day do you hear yourself thinking, "What an idiot!"? I lose count.
Maybe he's a fan of Jon Kyle and did not intend for those to be considered factual statements.
I mean, Jon Kyle didn't die in war, or get captured.
