WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)On the final day of Black History Month, Donald J. Trump thanked Ben Carson for participating in a handful of photo opportunities during the month, and bade him farewell until Black History Month next year.
Saying goodbye to Carson at the White House, Trump praised him for sitting or standing next to me at various times over the past four weeks.
At the beginning of Black History Month, you came to that breakfast we had, and last week you went with me to that museum or whatever, Trump said. Well do things like that again next year. Thanks again, Ben, and goodbye.
