During Cuomo Prime Time Friday, a discussion on the battle for the African-American vote took place.  Just a week after belittling Tucker Carlson as a "WASPy white male," host Chris Cuomo used a similar line of attack against President Trump, claiming that he, "as an older, white Anglo-Saxon male...Protestant" might be "the perfect messenger" to "go after the outrage and the disaffection of the white community." Cuomo proceeded to ask Niger Innis of the Congress of Racial Equality "for Donald Trump to sell himself as pro-black after the Central Park Five and birtherism, does he even have a shot?" Cuomo also alleged that President Trump "won't let go" of his position on the Central Park Five because "he doesn't want to upset...the people who like to hear that the brown guys did it."
