Former Obama campaign advisor says Trump might as well just put on the white hood [Video]

Diversity and Inclusion

A former Obama campaign advisor blasted the Trump administration’s efforts to combat diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies in the federal government, likening the president to a Ku Klux Klan member.

“He doesn’t believe in fairness, and at this point, he might as well just put on the white hood, because every Black person in this country in particular knows what message this is signaling and knows exactly what he’s doing when he talks, the way he talks, and when he employs these types of regulations,” Ameshia Cross said Saturday on MSNBC.

Cross made the racially-charged comments in response to a question regarding President Donald Trump’s recent executive order calling for a formal review of FAA hiring practices during the Biden administration. 

The order came in response to the tragic DC plane crash which killed 67 people Wednesday, after an Army helicopter collided with a passenger jet near Reagan National Airport. Immediately after the crash, some speculated that the FAA’s DEI policies may have played a role in the disaster.
