RantCrush Top 5: August 15, 2016

Donald Trump has criticized Democrats for failing to address urban joblessness and despair, particularly in industrial cities like Detroit. Yet, not once this entire election has Trump dedicated time or effort to hold “a single event aimed at black voters in their communities, shunning the traditional stops at African-American churches, historically black colleges and barber shops and salons that have long been staples of the presidential campaign trail” said the New York Times. We’ve all been so caught up in the next wild thing flying from the Republican nominee’s mouth, that we are forgetting to pay attention to his actions (or lack thereof). Now Republicans are worried that Trump’s inability to garner the black vote will hurt him come November.
