- Republicans are dodging questions about Trump's latest racist post, with Rep. Mike Haridopolos changing the subject when confronted, according to a report by Conover Kennard on Crooks and Liars.
- The incident has raised concerns about Trump's mental acuity, with many criticizing his divisive and inflammatory language, as reported on February 7, 2026.
- Trump's post has been widely condemned, with many calling out the former president for his racist remarks, and Republicans struggling to defend his actions, as noted by sources on Twitter and Facebook.
JUSTICE MATTERS
The coverage of the story by PBS NewsHour, New York Times, and BBC differs in terms of framing and language used. While PBS NewsHour describes the post as a "racist depiction of the Obamas" and the New York Times calls it a "racist video", the BBC quotes Trump saying he "didn't see" the racist clip, potentially downplaying his responsibility. The systemic context of racism and its implications are somewhat obscured in these reports, with the New York Times focusing on the "public outcry from members of his own party" and the BBC highlighting Trump's denial, whereas the original article by Crooks and Liars emphasizes the racist nature of the post and the discomfort of Republicans in defending it.
