Donald Trump is known for sharing his opinion and this morning (Oct 1) he took aim at ABC’s new comedy “black-ish.”
How is ABC Television allowed to have a show entitled “Blackish”? Can you imagine the furor of a show, “Whiteish”! Racism at highest level?

It seems that the mogul is most upset with the title of the show rather than the content (though others have lodged that complaint). Is it considered racist when the showrunner and its creators are black and the show is about what it means to be black family in contemporary suburbia?

Theories have been floated as to what Dockett’s intentions could be with the tweet. Does he think that replicating a tweet is the same as RT’ing it? Is he a super fan of Trump and wanted to show props or was this a one time agreement? Is it just a really bizarre, intense coincidence? That’s a mystery that may never be solved.
