Kathy Miller, the chair of Trump's campaign in Mahoning County, Ohio resigned Thursday, according to a statement from the Trump Ohio campaign. The resignation comes after Miller made racially-charged remarks to The Guardian.
On Thursday morning, Miller said that there was "no racism" before Obama. She made the inflammatory comments to The Guardian's Anywhere but Washington series, when she said, "If you’re black and you haven’t been successful in the last 50 years, it’s your own fault. You’ve had every opportunity, it was given to you."

She further charged, “You’ve had the same schools everybody else went to. You had benefits to go to college that white kids didn’t have. You had all the advantages and didn’t take advantage of it. It’s not our fault, certainly.”

Trump's just a mirror of his supporters. If he wins, this is who is really taking power and gaining cultural significance.

Personally, I think she was anxious about the economy when she made that statement, don't you?

Basket or whatever you call them we should not let these people have power or any voice. Calling minorities lazy, violent, and abusing the government is how dark things happen.

This person was a high-up official, in an incredibly important county for Trump. This kind of blatant racism has no place in our society, and the fact that Trump hired someone like this for this position is revealing.
