Heading into last week’s presidential election, we asked if the United States is ready for a Black woman president.

The overwhelming results in the favor of convicted criminal, resurrectionist and all-around liar Donald Trump over Kamala Harris, the answer is a resounding no.

But how did Trump win so big, claiming victories in all of the key battleground states? Black women upheld their end of the bargain and Black men showed up in great support, despite concerns that wouldn’t be the case. But the letdown came from Hispanic men, white women and white men.

The result is we have Donald Trump, the 45th President, back again as the nation’s 47th President. The overwhelming feeling is this can’t be good for Black people, illegal Latino immigrants and women’s rights.
