'Well, that's racist': Touré argues against 'having white male Presidents,' including ... this guy?

It’s time for some Real Talk from Touré about why America’s in this mess that we’re in:

Let’s be honest: we’ve had two horrible white male Presidents in a row and the three before that—Clinton, Poppy Bush, and Reagan—were problematic at best. We just need to stop having white male Presidents for a while.

It’s all so simple.

LOL Obama was horrible too brah. It’s okay to say that. It doesn’t make you a race traitor. https://t.co/AsD2vQEvH4

Well, for what it’s worth, Touré’s apparently including Obama on his list of horrible white male presidents. So that’s something … or something.

in a row?

"…in a row…"

LOL

Let's be honest. You don't know what "in a row" means.

Maybe he’s just disgusted with Obama’s white half.

How is it useful to reduce these five people to simply "white men"?

To be fair, Touré’s not really known for being useful. Other than as a shining example of how not to be taken seriously or warrant any respect.

Our thoughts exactly.

Electing presidents based on race seems like a great idea ?

What could possibly go wrong?

This is precisely the kind of toxic dehumanizing rhetoric that has come to typify the conversations we have in this country. It will backfire because racial essentialism always backfires and is used against those who perpetuate it. It is a bitterness that is not rooted in love. https://t.co/vYHbOAhHTj

Well done, Touré. Again.
