Donald Trump continued his streak of defending accused abusers while simultaneously attacking alleged victims this morning.

White male hubris is a powerful drug—especially in the case of Donald Trump.

President Trump continues his fall into the bottomless pit that is his presidency. On Monday, the old man that loves porn stars and chicken (I never thought I could hate any man who loves porn stars and chicken, president or not) visited Hurricane Florence victims on Wednesday.

There’s one thing I can say about the xenophobic, racist, sexist Trump train: It’s never late. Speaking for the first time since Christine Blasey Ford’s claim that Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her when they were both in high school, President Trump expressed his sympathy and regret and…

Education Secretary Betsy DeVos, also known as Sarah Palin’s play cousin, continues her “I just want to be loved tour” in which she attends events and tries to prove that she actually became the Education Secretary on merit and not because she’s the wife to a very wealthy man.

Before I get started, I need y’all to applaud my genius at being able to pick the perfect header image from Getty to go with every story I write about this annoying moron named Donald Trump.

Buried among the mountain of tales in Bob Woodward’s excavation of Donald Trump’s Hogwarts Acadamy for Grand Wizards, is a story that reveals the ineptitude of Donald Trump and the brazen supremacy of whiteness.

At The Root, we don’t employ a psychologist or a psychiatrist (although Michael Harriot serves as the senior wypipoloigist on staff), so we are unable to assess the president’s mental health.

As people in the Carolinas prepare themselves for the onslaught of Hurricane Florence, Donald Trump proved that he doesn’t know what the word “success” means when he praised his administration’s response to Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico last year—where an estimated 3,000 people died as a result of the storm.

The president of the United States of White America shouldn’t need a crash course on arguably the most horrific tragedy in American history in the past 50 years (followed closely the Russian assist that gave this president the White House), yet, here we are.

I would like to first give a shoutout to Sarah Huckabee Sanders’s unwavering support of Donald Trump. If there was anyone who epitomizes what Tammy Wynette meant when she sang “Stand By Your Man,” Sanders is it. Nothing this president has done is indefensible in her book.
