Open up your pocketbooks: Maxine Waters Promises Reparations For Black Americans

[shockedcanadian]

If the Democrats win back the House appears you may have a new reparations tax of some sorts. Quite frankly, I believe her. She wants to be president and will do anything to win the votes.

Can you imagine. President Waters, it has a nice ring. She will start with the mid-terms.

Maxine Waters: 'I'd Be Happy' To Get Reparations For Black Americans

Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters said during an event in Selma, Alabama on Saturday that she would “be happy” to secure financial reparations for black Americans.

Waters said as long as Democrats win back the House in 2020 and are able to get a president who is friendly to their agenda, it would be “wonderful” to get reparations.

“I’d be happy to do that. That’s no problem,” Waters said when an event attendee pressed her to support reparations.


“In order to get where we need to go on this issue and other issues, we really got to understand that 2018 is important in taking back the House and taking back the Senate,” Waters said. “And of course, we’ve got to get the White House back.”

“If we want to get to the point where we can get reparations, we’ve got to have the power to do that, number 1, by having a supportive president would be wonderful, but taking back the House would be absolutely wonderful,” she continued.

Waters also used the speech to attack President Trump, stating that he has a “bully mentality” and that we need someone in the White House who “understands diplomacy and understands what we need to do to have peace in this world.”

CNN commentator Angela Rye asked Waters if that was her “stump speech for 2020,” and Waters just laughed and said “that’s kinda it.”

Won't happen.

 

[shockedcanadian]

Won't happen.

If they win the mid-terms, I think she will go crazy with power and push for it and campaign on it. Can you imagine the voting once these Groupthink reps have their way? Anonymous down the line on anything. Though I suppose Trump can veto it all right?

Maxie can have Reparations only if the Arabs and Berbers and Black African countries contribute heavily to the Reparations jackpot...

Black Africans had been making slaves of each other on a grand scale for untold generations before the Euros came in the 16th - 18th...

Arab Slavers and Muslim Berbers had been operating slave markets along various sections of the African coasts long before Whitey showed up...

So long, in fact, that they built Slaver Forts up and down the coast that were already old by the time the Whites came calling...

By then, the Black Africans and the Arab and Muslim Berber Slavers were operating what amounted to Drive-Thru Slave Shopping...

White Euro folk were merely frequent customers to that already ancient and long-thriving Drive-Thru Slave Mall...

You get the Arabs and Berbers and Black coastal nations to chip-in the lion's share of the Reparations Jackpot and we'll think about chipping-in.

Oh well...if we're going to give Wall Street $1 trillion for destroying the economy back in 2008, I have a hard time getting upset about this.

If they win the mid-terms ( I don't believe they will), Maxine Waters will be the least of our problems.

I think it might set a great precedent, after all my people were kept in bondage in Egypt for generations. I want reparations too....

 

[depotoo]

No one would give her any real power. Even the left is not that stupid.

I have no problems with her doing that in The Poorest State in the country. People are fleeing California like a sinking ship.

What a pathetic invasive species those fucking wastes of time are. Good God what was anyone thinking shipping those fucking things over here.


Bottom line, should have picked our own fucking cotton and that stupid skinny ignorant thing would be dancing with a bone in her nose in Mali. Instead those fucking things have to give me diarrhea with every stupid thing they say and do.

 

[Moonglow]

She said she wanted reparations, well give her reparations in 1865 confederate money values...

 

[Auld Phart]

Well, she'd have California EV...\

Doubt anyplace else is loopy enough to back her.


(I may have to rethink even Ca backing her)

There are people that are disgusting humans in every race and ethnicity.

Even if they got reparations and were niggah rich for a day they'd piss it so fast they'd be right back where they started and would want more..

 

[depotoo]

You guys are awful.

 

[Moonglow]

You guys are awful.

No worse than accussing me of something I have never done and expecting me to pay for it...I don't mind child support for a moment of indiscretion but......

 

[Kondor3]

You guys are awful.

Not really... just tired of the excuses and the bullshit and the Eternal Open Hand...

So a bunch of people who were never slaves want a bunch of money from people who never owned one. Great.

 

[shockedcanadian]

No need for the racist name calling. Maxine should be judged by her character and policies, there is plenty to be critical of without racist name calling,
