President Trump recently decided to rescind the Obama administrations Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) rule, which put pressure on suburbs to construct more low-income, high-density housing in their communities. Trumps decision met with a predictable outcry. Its not even a dog whistle anymore, Connecticut senator Chris Murphy tweeted. Our President is now a proud, vocal segregationist. Somehow, Democrats still see the suburbs as racially homogenized, lily-white enclaves something they havent been for a long time.
