Donald Trump is facing a fresh wave of outrage in the United States after he used his Truth Social platform on Monday to share and criticise a video of Black kindergarten children wearing hijabs at a St Paul, Minnesota charter school, prompting accusations that the president is now targeting Muslim pupils.
Trump's attacks on public figures of colour. A day earlier, he had taken yet another swipe at Barack and Michelle Obama, a fixation that has become a running feature of his online presence. This time, according to critics, he widened the frame of his rhetoric to focus not on political rivals or adult opponents, but on a classroom of very young children who happened to be Black, Muslim and visibly observant.
