Trump Vows to get endorsement for Jeff Sessions from Fredrick Douglass
Note: Borozitz - Satire
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Infuriated after Senator Elizabeth Warren read a scathing letter from 1986 about Jeff Sessions by Coretta Scott King, Donald Trump vowed on Wednesday to secure an endorsement for Sessions from Frederick Douglass.
“I know Frederick Douglass will write a great letter, much better than that bad letter Coretta Scott King wrote,” Trump said. “I said really nice things about Frederick Douglass last week, so I’m sure he will do this for me.”
Visibly angered by the King letter, Trump contrasted the “great job Douglass has done” with the “terrible, very bad job that Coretta Scott King has done.”
“I don’t know who this Coretta King person is, but she should stay away from writing letters because she has zero talent for it,” Trump said.

Thing about Borowitz is that you can't tell whether it is satire or true!
