Everybody — well most people — knows that Donald Trump is bad news. And though he wasn’t taken seriously when he decided to run for president, the whole world is watching his campaign trails and rallies and debates with morbid fascination.
He is anti-Muslim, anti-Black, anti-Latinos. In fact, he is anti-everything!
The man is so dangerous that the possibility of his winning the U.S. presidential election is as big a threat to the global economy as Islamist terrorism, according to Global Forecasting Service.
He’s against what America stands for, a country built with the sweat of immigrants.

And he offers to pay for their legal fees.
So it wasn’t surprising when this happened at his rally recently. But it hit close to home, because it happened to one of us. A Nigerian.
Adedayo Adeniyi, a 20-year-old student at East Carolina University, attended Donald Trump’s rally in Fayetteville, North Carolina. out of curiosity.
But he was randomly targeted and thrown out of the event by police, because he’s Black!
The shocker happened as he was being escorted out of the event.
A middle aged white man, looked him directly in the face and said, “F you” three times, right before slapping Adedayo hard in the face! This happened while he was being bundled out like a bag of beans.
The gall. The effrontery.
These are scary times, if this is happening in his rally, imagine what will happen if this man actually becomes president! That is enough to give anybody nightmares.
We really hope that this man doesn’t become president, because if he does, this quote perfectly captures what will happen.
We’re also sure that the population of people living in the African continent will definitely increase.
