couple of things:
This mocking of Gaetz about the Cuban child he's raised...is completely inappropriate. Assume the best . Men living together are not automatically gay. It's wrong and damaging to automatically assume gayness for this sort of thing. One of the unfortunate results of more open homosexulity.
and
Some weirdness going on...the same anti-trump people seem to be saying that Trump is a complete ignorant moron...AND that he knowingly planned a rally on Juneteenth in a place known for race riots. As a slap against black people. You can't really have it both ways.
The mocking is bad but he also should not have brought the kid into the spotlight. It is giving the impression that he is being used to show that Gaetz is actually a gold guy and not a bigot - and that is false. Gaetz is still just angry he got owned and he is intentionally a lightning rod. He deserves all the criticism in the world, but I do feel bad the boy got dragged into it.
Re Juneteenth, trump is just trying to kill 2 birds with one stone. He is signaling to the racists that he is slapping black people in the face knowing his rallies attract the worst on the right. At the same time he is going to be given credit by tzees for trying to tackle racial tension, which to them is simply just saying some words about jobs at his rally. Keep in mind the audience in either case is just tzees. He doesn’t give a damn about the underlying concerns and will take advantage of any opportunity to grab headlines.
