Speaking about the former US president, John Legend said: “He [Donald Trump] has made it clear throughout his life that he believes black people are inferior. He believes that to his skull, to his bones.
“He wouldn’t let us [Black people] live in his buildings back in the day, but also when you hear some of the stray comments he makes, he clearly believes in the genetic hierarchy of humanity and he is racially determined.
“So he is a tried-and-true, dyed in the wool racist. In the core of his being, he is a racist. I don’t want to hear what he has to say about what he has done for black people, he is but done very little for us and he is at his core, truly a racist.
“You even hear what he says about immigration and what countries he wants people to come in from, they are all very white.”
