so my best assessment today would be the caveat that from the looks of it, the reality was that the old native guy was simply mistaken and judgmental in this story. What makes the most coherent sense is that the native guy saw the white students with their maga hats and the black guys with their signs faced off and assumed the kids were abusing the black guys, when in reality it was the other way around multiplied by one hundred. But he marched in there 'bravely' to diffuse the tensions in his own way by singing and drumming, thinking he was facing down some angry mob of racists. Instead it was just a bunch of awkward kids in the middle of school cheers who had no idea what he was doing, and thought it was some kind of cultural display. So they stood there singing and clapping along awkwardly and making some hooping and hollering. The old guy walks right back out 5 minutes later completely unaware of the context of what's going on, and gives an interview on TV in which he says the kids were chanting 'build the wall' and menacing the black guys. He didn't have the benefit of watching the hour of racist slurs and epithets being hurled at the kids, he just blindly walked in.

And that in and of itself is a kind of character defect. The kind of moral failing that could explain how this guy was previously featured in a race baiting story where he was offended by a group of college kids dressed as indians for some party that he went out of his way to disturb. Its actions best attributed to ignorance, not malice. A comedy of human errors.

He actually claimed to have been assaulted by the native themed college party near his home where they claimed they were "honoring" natives after calling him over and they allegedly threw a beer can at him and had some drunken college racial comments to make after he said it was not honoring him

He called the police and filed a report with the campus

I'm seriously so sick of hearing about Trump already; he's a fringe candidate who stands no chance at getting the nomination. He's this year's Ron Paul (gets tons of attention on the internet but loses by a landslide).
