The saying goes that even a broken clock is right twice a day, and the same sentiment can be applied to the sole moment of humanity shown by The Trump Administration a few weeks ago (March 5) when 13-year-old brain cancer survivor DJ Daniel was deemed an honorary agent of the U.S. Secret Service.

“Every time Donald Trump needs someone, a Black person in particular, to wipe the stains of whatever he’s doing off, he can always find one. There’ll always be somebody who is willing to be a token or a pawn. Always — always somebody who is willing to be a prop.”

Whether it’s enlisting Diamond and Silk to help garner more Black votes, shoutouts from former NFL player Marcellus Wiley in the midst of trying to get rid of Black History Month or cutting funds for cancer research while simultaneously boasting a Black cancer survivor in front of the The White House, it’s really not hard to see through the many agents of deflection. However, does it pay in the end when they no longer have any use for you?
