Michael Harriot: The 8 Kinds of Black Donald Trump Supporters

[StarfishSaver]

While Trump supporters may be a small minority of black people, it is important to know who they are, why they choose to support the dimwitted, tanning booth-weathered love child of Pennywise and Lord Voldemort and—most importantly—how to spot these rare creatures in the wild.

As a member of the growing subset of wypipologists who study Trump-related subjects (a Lie-entist, if you will) I have cataloged every single genus and species of black Donald Trump supporters for your edification:

1. MAGA-scots
...
2. Dummies
...
3. Churchless Pastors
...
4. Black Conspiracy Theorists
...
5. “Different” Black People
...
6. True Believers
...
7. Opportunists
...
8. Kanye West

6. Are you sure the title shouldn't be "The 8 Black Donald Trump Supporters"?

Kanye West is already listed, Jesse Lee Peterson belongs in his own kind of stupid wrong.
