I am not sure why these folks never learn. You know how Trump is but you cozy up to him for whatever benefits you think he has. Well, hopefully he learnt that you cannot erase a tiger’s stripes.

This Trump supporter in Florida claims he faced discrimination from a right-wing political advocacy group, alleging that he was called a "slave" during his 12-day tenure with the organization before being fired for raising complaints.

Carl Baxter, who is Black, is suing Americans for Prosperity, the nonprofit conservative group founded by billionaire brothers Charles and David Koch, known for their opposition to climate change initiatives. Baxter, who serves as president of the Republican Club of North & East Fort Myers, is an outspoken fan of Donald Trump. His social media is filled with images of him at Trump events, waving a MAGA flag at a "Trump Truck Parade," attending charity galas while giving a Trumpian "thumbs-up," and proudly wearing a red MAGA hat while posing with prominent figures, including a county tax collector who is a vocal critic of critical race theory.
