So a lot of times, they want to say, well, the policies. I'm like, yeah, he's canceling Black History, but he's inviting hundreds of Black people to the White House for Black History Month. To celebrate it, so... It's very hard to figure out his racism. Very confusing racism. That's a crazy way to show you're racist.
No, I don't like Black History Month. I got jokes, too. Like, first of all, it's the shortest month, so stop it. But no, too, like, there's no White History Month, and I understand we have different history, but I don't need anyone to single out one time where we're going to talk and really lean into all the things that are Black.

If you're not going to do it all the time, don't do it any time, and I'm going to do it the rest of the time. You know, like, I hate when people, like, give you this little handicap sticker and lane and say... All right, it's your turn. All right, go. It's almost like when you're coaching a kid that you know is not good and everyone knows we're winning by like 90 points.
