Where the fuck is the video? Is it just not loading properly on my phone or is this really just a dogshit article about a video without even a link to the video so I can judge for myself?

And as suspected this interaction just reads to me as a dumbass old whete guy clumsily trying to compliment a young girl's hair and make her feel good about herself. Yes, it was awkward and tasteless but I don't believe for a second that he was thinking "buy her" as in slavery terms. I think Trump is a moron too and it irks me that he is president but everyone who is screaming "slave owner vibes" about this, is as crazy as the MAGA nuts on the other end of the spectrum.
Go ahead Lemmy, rip me a new asshole. Ya'll are so desperate to hate everything the dude does that you're out of touch with reality. No wonder he won if there are wacko's on our side calling shit like this racism.
- Yeah I don't think Trump thinks about slavery in that context. He's just literally obsessed with money.
  I think youre right and he's just trying to give a compliment. He thinks what would be the best thing he can say and it's "I think that thing is worth a lot of money".
  Demented autocrat who shouldn't be president but he's just being awkward here, not racist. He is a racist, sure, but he's not behaving racist here. Just awkward.
- Get this realist shit out of here. It doesn’t matter what his INTENT was, it’s still 1800s plantation owner behavior. It’s the racialized version of some sleazy guy telling a woman she’d be prettier if she smiled more
  Don’t make this about the election. America is so fundamentally racist and sexist, the democrats so fundamentally opposed to winning, that he would’ve won regardless of how we responded to him. In fact, I would’ve gone so far as to say he would’ve won even harder if we had shut up about him
