    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!


    In an exclusive interview with “GMA” co-anchor George Stephanopoulos today, Wade said the tweet left him “conflicted,” adding that he didn’t want his family to be used for political gain.

    "I was grateful that it started a conversation but on the other hand, it just left a bad taste in my mouth because of what my family is dealing with and what our city of Chicago is dealing with and it looks like it’s being used as political gain," Wade said.

    Nykea Aldridge, Wade’s first cousin, was fatally shot in Chicago on Aug. 26 as she was pushing a stroller in the city’s Parkway Gardens neighborhood.
