Time to unite
During a recent class period of my mass media course at Mississippi State University, a discussion about Steve Harvey’s meeting with Donald Trump took place. (Harvey, a comedian and TV/radio host, has been harshly criticized for meeting with Trump at Trump Tower.)
This is truly getting ridiculous. It is time to unite. Trump will be the president of the United States, and it will take all of us to come together.
The media has falsely slandered his name and made him out to look like a bigot and racist.
Have we not learned by now that the media itself is a scam? It is all liberal and it’s only aim is to undermine the Trump election win and presidency.
There is no reason for Steve Harvey to apologize. He has been an avid supporter of improving the inner cities of the American society long before Trump even announced a presidential bid.
I hate that so-called “inclusive,” liberal-minded individuals seek to defame a man for meeting with Trump solely because he is African American. It’s time to end this petty madness. Enough is enough.
