Twitter Imagines What Would Happen If Donald Trump Were Black

Some of these tweets are scarily accurate.

“If Trump were black, we would call him a thug.” So says CNN commentator Van Jones.

On Thursday, Twitter chimed in with more thoughts on how the Republican presidential nominee would behave and be treated by the public at large if he were African-American with the hashtag #IfTrumpWereBlack.
