Rutgers gender studies professor, Brittany Cooper, when speaking to a group of black women on Oprah Winfrey Network’s “Black Women OWN the Conversation,” made the claim that it was President Trump who was making black women fat.
Brittany Cooper, “We are living in the Trump era. And look, those policies kill our people. You can’t get access to good health care, good insurance.”
Via National File:
There is no evidence shared or that can be found that makes the correlation of Trump being truly the cause of obesity / morbid obesity within any population, race, or gender including African American women.
