    I find it amazing that people, and mostly journalist, still think he’s confused by this when he’s clearly just being racist by trying to play Indian Americans against African Americans while feeding his base bigotry they’ve crave.

      Feeding his base absolutely. However to my mind it’s selling Asian and black Americans short to think they will take Trump’s comments and be upset with one another rather than with trump himself.

        Well, yeah. Trump’s the one who thinks it’s a good strategy, not @inclementimmigrant.
