No, I'm not denying anything blacks have done for this country. What makes you think I am? Your previous comments equated "white racists" with Trump, then with his voters, an absurd leap of logic, and a racist statement. I take exception to that, and would be pleased to see you retract it. We don't need racism of any sort in this country, and I hope we can agree on that!

Nice to hear about your father's service to this country. I salute him, as I do all who have served.
