There\u2019s a big difference between attacking individuals who are persons of color and attacking the color itself. Rather than clarify the distinction Timothy writes in such a way as to obscure that distinction. He refers to Trump\u2019s \u201cattacks on \u2018them,&#8217;\u201d identifying \u201cthem\u201d as all people of color, which is a misrepresentation of the content of the tweet. Indeed, Timothy never even attempts an argument. He simply insinuates that the remarks are attacks on race and states that \u201cpeople of color\u201d are \u201csuffering unjustly\u201d (!) from Trump\u2019s tweet.
