The racist post that was on President Trumpâs account is completely unacceptable. I find it hard to believe, but if it came via a staff member, taking it down isnât enough. It demands an apology from the President and that the staffer be fired.

Most Presidents voluntarily release their tax returns. No President should be able to force a multi-billion dollar payday from the government they run for the purpose of self-enrichment.
