Recently, the President of the United States really fixed his Cheeto-stained lips to say that people from "shithole countries" like Haiti, El Salvador, and nations in Africa don't deserve entry into the U.S. On Sunday, during a White House press conference, Trump was able to say that he's "not a racist. I’m the least racist person you will ever interview. That I can tell you." That, of course, prompted outlets like the New York Times to break down exactly how often dude's been racist; hell, even LeBron James knows the deal.

One voice we didn't need to hear in this discussion at all, aside from Donald Trump's himself, is that of Eric Trump, who during an interview on Fox & Friends found a way to not be struck down by lightning while saying, "My father sees one color, green. That is all he cares about, he cares about the economy. He does not see race."

Before saying that unemployment rates in the African American community are the lowest they've ever been, Eric also said, "He is least racist person I ever met in my entire life."

One has to assume that Eric Trump hasn't met too many people. Nor does any of this explain why he used to rock with people like Steve Bannon. Or why the alt-right was behind him. But you know, keep dreaming that dream, Eric.
