As African Americans persist in their quest for the long-overdue reparations related to slavery and its enduring effects, President Donald Trump is now contemplating financial compensation for the predominantly white individuals who violently breached the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. In a recent conversation with far-right Newsmax host Greg Kelly, Trump was questioned about the possibility of establishing a compensation fund for the Capitol rioters, referencing their claims of lost income and opportunities. Trump replied, “Well, there’s talk about that. We have a lot of people… a lot of the people that are in government now talk about it because… really like that group of people.”
