Sickening.

Side question - why are race names like Black, Hispanic, Latin, Asian, etc. capitalized, but white isn't? I know this might be a touchy subject and I honestly don't want to start anything, I'm am simply genuinely curious.

“The left is now rationing life-saving therapeutics based on race, discriminating against and denigrating … white people to determine who lives and who dies,” he said during his speech on Saturday night in Florence, Arizona.

“If you’re white you do not get the vaccine or if you’re white you do not get therapeutics … In New York state, if you’re white, you have to go to the back of the line to get medical health,” he said.

Former President Donald Trump and his family company have a long history of stiffing contractors, but there’s one bill they almost certainly wish they had paid.

Ahead of the 2017 presidential inauguration, the Trump Organization reserved a block of rooms at the Loews Madison Hotel. When at least 13 people didn’t show up, the Trump Organization refused to pay the bill, something it has done many times in the past. The company then dodged a credit collection agency and eventually squirmed out of it by pushing the $49,358 bill off to the nonprofit presidential inaugural committee, the PIC.

That dodged payment is now the crux of the attorney general for the District of Columbia’s latest effort to put the Trump Organization back in its crosshairs in an ongoing investigation into how the Trump kids used the Presidential Inauguration Committee to throw lavish parties of their own.

“It was their friends. It should never have been sent to the PIC. That’s misuse of funding. The Trump Organization being involved in any way and getting the PIC to pay any sort of balance anywhere on their behalf? It just doesn’t seem legitimate,” said Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, who coordinated inaugural events and is now the government’s lead witness in this case.

Because writing conventions change.

"Black" has only recently been capitalized, as the style guides in many news organizations and publishers were changed. Before 2020, it was "black" and "white." The others are considered proper noun forms.

Here's an article from 2020 from the Chicago Manual of Style. They add that if you want to capitalize "White" when speaking of Black and White people, that's fine--as a matter of editorial consistency, but they don't seem to require it.

Here's the quote. And still MSM talks about this monster's supposed future candidacy without outrage.

“The left is now rationing life-saving therapeutics based on race, discriminating against and denigrating … white people to determine who lives and who dies,” he said during his speech on Saturday night in Florence, Arizona.

“If you’re white you do not get the vaccine or if you’re white you do not get therapeutics … In New York state, if you’re white, you have to go to the back of the line to get medical health,” he said.

I'll be at the clinic first thing tomorrow...with my phone!"

Unfortunately it is probably the 'therapeutics' part that he is trying to hook them. It links into an old narrative of too much healthcare resources going to PoC and that is why rural hospitals are underfunded. So as hospitals get overwhelmed with omicron cases, they can explain their lack of treatment on 'it is going to other races!' rather than 'too many unvaccinated people'.

The ironic thing about TFG's latest statement is that he was speaking to a group that has no intention of being vaccinated and don't believe that they need treatment, so why would they care that they are being denied vaccination/treatment?
