Presidential contender and billionaire activist Tom Steyer accused President Trump on Wednesday of being a “criminal” using “racism to divide Americans,” and claimed he is becoming more “dangerous.”
“He’s a criminal, he’s a threat to the Constitution. And he’s dangerous for the American people,” Steyer said, adding that Trump is “the most corrupt president in American history.”
Asked about the “send her back” chants directed at Rep. Ilhan Omar during a recent Trump rally, Steyer replied that there is “nothing lower in the world than going after” people based on their “race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and religion… and [Trump] does all of the above.” He stated that Trump uses racism to “distract attention from his failed economic policies” and “the failure of his whole presidency,” a ludicrous accusation considering the country’s booming economy and Trump’s actual record with minorities.
