Donald Trump took to Twitter earlier today to turn the horrific murder of Dwyane Wade’s cousin, Nykea Aldridge, into a reason why Black voters should choose him over Hillary Clinton in November.
To make matters worse, the first time Donald tweeted about the murder he misspelled Dwyane’s name. He later deleted and re-tweeted the following:
Dwyane Wade's cousin was just shot and killed walking her baby in Chicago. Just what I have been saying. African-Americans will VOTE TRUMP!

Many people, including Don Cheadle, criticized Trump for not offering any condolences to Dwyane or his family.
You are truly a POS https://t.co/cyTwxgxwDh

Sorry. I misspelled "die in a grease fire." https://t.co/16K2iq1pF4

Trump later added the following:
My condolences to Dwyane Wade and his family, on the loss of Nykea Aldridge. They are in my thoughts and prayers.

It’s imperative that everyone does his/her part to keep this man out of office.
