I'd be willing to bet Herr Miller told Trump that black people are afraid of dogs. If not Miller,

then it was another of his racist collaborators. Isn't that a racist stereotype going back to when slave catchers used dogs to hunt down runaway slaves?

As far as I know, they at least didn't used to have attack dogs at the White House.

Not everyone here lived through the 60's, but cops have apparently passed this on as part of their oral history ...

When I saw that tweet, I actually grinned at the bald-facedness of his racism. Dogs and "weapons more powerful than I've ever seen" or some such shit.
