In case you didn’t get enough MSNBC on TV, you can check out Joy Reid on The Daily Beast with a wild and woolly editorial headlined: “Puerto Rico Is Trump's Katrina: President Donald Trump … does not care … about brown and black people.”  At least it was marked “OPINION.” It also had the unsubtle subheadline “NERO.” When he visited Texas, he had a "petting zoo of black evacuees.".
