Donald Trump ’s praise of Black people is disingenuous poison.
Donald Trump's praise of Rep. Byron Donalds is part of a larger pattern where the corrupt ex-president identifies “his” so-called special African-Americans to metamorphically — if not literally — pat on the head at his rallies.
Trump has made similar claims about “good” and “bad” members of other ethnic and racial minority groups.
Donald Trump ’s racist and white supremacist praise of Byron Donalds is not “harmless,” a “gaffe,’ or just Trump “riffing” Such behavior is part of a centuries-old political strategy in America , says Julian Zelizer .
Zelizer : Kamala Harris is going to have to respond to Trump 's racist, sexist and other vile attacks on her personhood.

Julian Zelizer : The challenge for Trump and his campaign is how to modulate the racist, white supremacist, and other attacks in such a way as to damage Kamala .
Trump may actually lose independent and other voters outside of his base because of his crude behavior.
