Wade wasn’t afraid to make it political and talk about gun violence (but not gang violence and how gun control doesn’t work in inner cities), but yet he said he was “conflicted” about Donald Trump’s tweet that black Americans ought to vote for him for law-and-order reasons.
Here is Wade’s tweet after his cousin was murdered:
My cousin was killed today in Chicago. Another act of senseless gun violence. 4 kids lost their mom for NO REASON. Unreal. #EnoughIsEnough

Donald Trump tweeted the following:
Dwyane Wade’s cousin was just shot and killed walking her baby in Chicago. Just what I have been saying. African-Americans will VOTE TRUMP!

My condolences to Dwyane Wade and his family, on the loss of Nykea Aldridge. They are in my thoughts and prayers.
