Online racists blame Obama for brutal attack on disabled man: ‘Why can’t Trump be sworn in right NOW?’
Conservative talk radio host Laura Ingraham demanded an apology from President Barack Obama for the brutal attack on a disabled white man by four black assailants.
“Will @POTUS denounce the beating of a white disabled man by black youth while they screamed ‘f— Trump’ & ‘f— white ppl’?” Ingraham asked on her Twitter account.
Four suspects have been arrested in connection with the attack, which police are investigating as a hate crime.
Ingraham’s social media followers reacted to her provocative tweet in predictable fashion.
@KarenMKunkle @IngrahamAngle @POTUS Disgusting! Why can't Trump sworn in right NOW? He would put this nonsense to an end!!!

@IngrahamAngle @POTUS Never, ever. Obama thinks the white man is "the problem" and likely did something to deserve the beating.
