Donald Trump has taken a break from posting photos of serial killers to tackle the issue of racism, slamming one of ABC's new sitcoms as a result.
In anticipation of Black-ish Season 1 Episode 2 airing Wednesday night, the billionaire buffoon took to Twitter and called out the freshman series' title.
"How is ABC Television allowed to have a show entitled Blackish?" he asked. "Can you imagine the furor of a show, Whiteish! Racism at highest level?"
Yes, Donald Trump. This is absolutely racism at the highest level.
For the uninitiated, Black-ish is a family comedy that stars Anthony Anderson, Tracee Ellis Ross, Yara Shahidi and Laurence Fishburne, among others.
The series centers on a family man (Anderson), who struggles to gain a sense of cultural identity while raising his children in a mostly white, upper-middle-class neighborhood.
The patriarch is glad his kids have such an opportunity, one that was denied to him as a kid, but also worries that they don't have a sense of where they came from.
You know, that they only see themselves as black... ish.
The comedy has received strong reviews from critics and premiered last week to solid ratings. You can watch Black-ish online via TV Fanatic to form your own opinion.
Trump, however, takes issue with the title, but not major issue.
It didn't take long, after all, for him to shift his focus back to his typical target, President Barack Obama. The Donald followed up his Black-ish blast with:
"Obama can attend a fundraiser every day but can't be bothered to get briefed on national security. Commander-in-Chief?!"
What do you think of Trump's comment? Is Black-ish racist?
