Trump wants blacks to gamble on his "what the hell do you have to lose"

What a moronic way for Trump to solicit support from blacks.....

Blacks MUST always remember not to trust this orange moron who actually FUNDED the birther movement insinuating that a half-black man could NOT legitimately be sitting in the oval office.

...and blacks MUST always remember that Trump called for the reinstatement of the death penalty in New York following a horrific rape case in which five black teenagers were wrongly convicted.

So, my fellow citizen who are black......would you "gamble" that Trump is your would-be "savior"???

Black people also need to look here on USMB to see what Republicans are saying about the black man who was sitting in his own apartment eating ice cream when an off duty racist white cop supposedly accidentally walked into his apartment and shot him dead because she thought he was an intruder. They think the cop should serve no jail time.

And blacks need to look at what Republicans say about every other wrongful death of a black man who was murdered by a cop. Republicans say, "he shouldn't have resisted arrest" or "He shouldn't have been running away". But the fact is, cops don't kill whites for doing the same things. We have laws and those laws say cops can't choke a guy to death just because he's selling lose cigarettes on the street corner.

And Republicans defend guys like George Zimmerman.

So what do blacks have to lose? Other than their lives?




I agree blacks should pay attention to shit like that.


Blacks should note, that it is liberals/dems, that assume that they will identify with black criminals at every turn, while republicans will support law and order and thus safety in their communities, while dems accept the bloodbath as just part of the cost of doing business.
The guy was eating ice cream.

And blacks don't like it that they get shot for shit whites don't get shot for.

Black kid has a fake gun, he gets shot. Whites carry AR15's around town and don't get shot.

Black selling loose cigarettes gets choked to death.

Cops gets off for killing blacks every week.

Yea, blacks don't like it that black criminals are treated differently than white criminals. We aren't saying identify with black criminals. In fact, even us liberals side with you cons and tell blacks to not resist arrest and that if they weren't doing the crime they wouldn't have gotten murdered. 99% of blacks say that argument is bullshit.

So have fun with the 1% of blacks who actually agree with your spin. Ben Carson does.

What you should probably do is watch the television series C.O.P.S and take notice how black suspects interact with police compared to most whites.

What white person carries around an AR-15? Even if that was the case, it's legal to carry provided you have a permit or live in a open carry state. It's never legal to pull out a gun real or fake on a police officer. Nobody gets choked for illegally selling cigarettes. You can get choked by disobeying the orders of a police officer about getting handcuffs put on.

Most all police shootings of blacks have one thing in common: the suspect didn't obey the orders of the police officer.

The birther movement was started by the Democrats who put it in everyones heads, namely Hillary's primary run against Obama.
And anyway, how would being a birther have anything to do with not wanting a president because he is half Black/white ? its only about the legal aspect of birth origin not RACE.

Black people stand to do a much better chance right now. If I had a black kid coming out of college right now, I would say that with this economy, he or she is going to have a pretty good foothold on having a good life with that business degree. There is such a demand for workers right now, companies will be looking for them.
Had Hillary been elected in 2016... not so much. You would have seen a receding economy, more regulations crippling companies, more business being taken offshore... more deals for the Clinton foundation as well

If you have to ask how being a birther makes you a racist, you are too stupid to be here. You don't get how questioning Obama's citizenship was racist? So you don't get subtle racism? Of course if it worked in your favor you would get it.

And Hillary didn't put it in everyone's head. She put it in Trump's head obviously. Because he was the spokesman for the birther movement. Trump has a long history of courting the alt right when he was running for President. Don't pretend to be stupid. Own it!

You are so full of shit about a kid getting out of college right now. I don't even know where to begin. For one, he or she will have huge student debt. Secondly, what do you mean with this economy? This economy is no different than 2016's economy. We are adding just as many jobs every month. No more. Do you realize that Trump's tax break and stimulus that created a slightly better economy than Obama's is over? Companies are done hiring and giving raises because of that tax break. In fact, Trump's tariffs are causing companies to not hire and not spend money right now.

If Hillary were president we would have just as many consecutive months of jobs added as Trump had. In fact Trumps numbers are a little worse than Obama's. Every month Trump called Obama's jobs numbers pathetic but Trump's numbers are no better. Some months are actually worse. Trump's tariffs are a big reason why too. If he didn't start a trade war with China things would be much better.

So your saying Hillary Clinton is a racist? her campaign brought up The question of Obamas birth. I never thought that Obama was born in Kenya. I doubt very much that his white American Mother would want to give birth in a Kenyan Hospital... I doubt that very much.

Did she start the lie?

Did Clinton Supporters Start the 'Birther' Movement?

On 16 September 2016, after years of being the most visible and outspoken exponent of “birtherism” — the notion that, despite all evidence to the contrary, Barack Obama was born outside the U.S. and thus his presidency is illegitimate and his allegiances suspect — GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump stepped up to the podium at a televised campaign event and completely reversed his stance on the matter — but not before trying to lay blame for the long, drawn-out smear campaign on someone else.

“Hillary Clinton and her campaign of 2008 started the birther controversy. I finished it,” Trump said. “President Barack Obama was born in the United States, period.”

That Hillary Clinton supporters circulated such an e-mail isn’t in question, but the claim that that’s the moment the birther theory “first emerged” simply isn’t true. The likeliest point of origin we’ve been able to find was a post on conservative message board FreeRepublic.com dated 1 March 2008 (which, according to a report in The Telegraph, was at least a month before Clinton supporters got on the e-mail bandwagon):

Was it racist that some Hillary supporter promoted this lie? Sure. But Hillary didn't promote it. But Trump did. In fact Trump was the poster child for this lie.
 
This is all just right wing lies. Republican spin.

No lies. The white cop who shot the black man in his own apartment has been arrested and lost her job.

If you are a black and feel you are doing better specifically because of Donald Trump's policies then vote Donald Trump. But I'm not hearing too many blacks step forward and give Trump credit for this remarkable turnaround you claim they've made on Trump's watch.

I agree wholeheartedly with your first sentence. As for the latter, it depends on the poll I guess. The news is too biased today. I don't think there is any unbiased news; it's based on political affiliation and spin.

I think what you want is for blacks to overlook the Republican party racism.

We want blacks to see it is the Democrats whose party harbors the real racists and then join the Republican Party. It takes more education and empowerment of poor blacks starting with getting them jobs to do that.

Did you know there were dramatic decline in black unemployment under Obama?

This suggests Obama could also claim credit.

Trump likes to take credit for the long economic expansion, even though it is a continuation of an expansion that comprised nearly the entirety of Barack Obama’s tenure

And don't forget when the unemployment rate was going down on Obama's watch, you didn't believe the numbers. The second Trump got in you and Trump started believing the numbers. Lie much?

Nyet. Yours is the lie.

"No one cared more about the plight of black Americans than Barack Obama — our first African-American president — who won well more than 90 percent of the black vote. But the sad paradox of Obama's presidency is that a president who was going to lift up black America economically didn't deliver. From 2009 to 2015, the incomes of black Americans fell by more than $900 per family adjusted for inflation.

So far under Trump, median family incomes have risen by more than $1,000, according‎ to Sentier Research and based on Census Bureau numbers. These numbers are not broken down by race, but it's a pretty good bet that black incomes have risen with those of other races under Trump."

Trump's real record on race may surprise you

Obama did deliver. We were in a Great Recession that Republican policies caused. Here is the flaw in your illogic. Obama was handed a mess. He lowered unemployment to a really low number when he left office. You didn't believe those unemployment numbers. But the minute Trump took office and the unemployment number went down even .01%, then you started believing the unemployment numbers.

Sorry, not enough. If Obama didn't do enough, neither did Trump. The rich are still richer than ever. The middle class is still struggling. If you think America is suddenly great again, then it was great when Obama left office. Trump just gave a tax break that blacks and the rest of us poor and middle class people are going to eventually have to pay for. Because you know fucking well you will never ask the rich or corporations to pay one more dime than they do now. So eventually all Trump will have done is shift the tax burden more onto us. Not just middle class blacks, all of us.

You were easily persuaded. Perhaps because Trump had you conned from the get go.

Talk about getting conned. Who do you think actually pays for those tax increases on our businesses? Do you think they just have to do with one less yacht like the Democrats tell you?

I witnessed a bar fight once. Short black guy vs an older, short white guy.


Black guy got arrested the white guy did not.


Was it racism?


Or was it the fact that when the bartender told them that he had called the cops, the white guy left, and the black guy stayed behind to bitch at people?


I remember leaving, while the black guy was outside, bitching at a pile of cops, just waiting for him to say or do something to give them a reason to take him in.


I walked down to another bar, and the white guy was there, drinking happily and telling everyone about the fight.



Different behavior, different outcomes.

Did Clinton Supporters Start the 'Birther' Movement?

On 16 September 2016, after years of being the most visible and outspoken exponent of “birtherism” — the notion that, despite all evidence to the contrary, Barack Obama was born outside the U.S. and thus his presidency is illegitimate and his allegiances suspect — GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump stepped up to the podium at a televised campaign event and completely reversed his stance on the matter — but not before trying to lay blame for the long, drawn-out smear campaign on someone else.

“Hillary Clinton and her campaign of 2008 started the birther controversy. I finished it,” Trump said. “President Barack Obama was born in the United States, period.”

That Hillary Clinton supporters circulated such an e-mail isn’t in question, but the claim that that’s the moment the birther theory “first emerged” simply isn’t true. The likeliest point of origin we’ve been able to find was a post on conservative message board FreeRepublic.com dated 1 March 2008 (which, according to a report in The Telegraph, was at least a month before Clinton supporters got on the e-mail bandwagon):

Was it racist that some Hillary supporter promoted this lie? Sure. But Hillary didn't promote it. But Trump did. In fact Trump was the poster child for this lie.



So, they are sidestepping the fact that Hillary's campaign pushed the scandal before Trump, because they found some random mention of the question, on a message board?


LOL!!!!





Ask yourself, Why can you not stop race baiting?
 
What a moronic way for Trump to solicit support from blacks.....

Blacks MUST always remember not to trust this orange moron who actually FUNDED the birther movement insinuating that a half-black man could NOT legitimately be sitting in the oval office.

...and blacks MUST always remember that Trump called for the reinstatement of the death penalty in New York following a horrific rape case in which five black teenagers were wrongly convicted.

So, my fellow citizen who are black......would you "gamble" that Trump is your would-be "savior"???

Black people also need to look here on USMB to see what Republicans are saying about the black man who was sitting in his own apartment eating ice cream when an off duty racist white cop supposedly accidentally walked into his apartment and shot him dead because she thought he was an intruder. They think the cop should serve no jail time.

And blacks need to look at what Republicans say about every other wrongful death of a black man who was murdered by a cop. Republicans say, "he shouldn't have resisted arrest" or "He shouldn't have been running away". But the fact is, cops don't kill whites for doing the same things. We have laws and those laws say cops can't choke a guy to death just because he's selling lose cigarettes on the street corner.

And Republicans defend guys like George Zimmerman.

So what do blacks have to lose? Other than their lives?



Fear not.....the orange clown is reaping what he has sown....lol

Last July's poll

The poll indicates that Trump’s approval is down to 13 percent among African American voters,

Poll: Trump approval rating drops among minorities after 'go back' remarks


Trump’s personal attacks combined with remarks such as saying a group of white nationalist marchers in Charlottesville included "good people" are a jarring departure from longstanding public norms, said Max J. Skidmore, a political scientist at the University of Missouri-Kansas City

"On balance, the good that he has done has been largely, if not entirely, inadvertent," Skidmore said, "while the harm is deliberate and calculated to maintain his hold on political power."

Instead of listing to the lying Dems, why don't you listen what Trump said yourself for a change?

 
I agree blacks should pay attention to shit like that.


Blacks should note, that it is liberals/dems, that assume that they will identify with black criminals at every turn, while republicans will support law and order and thus safety in their communities, while dems accept the bloodbath as just part of the cost of doing business.
The guy was eating ice cream.

And blacks don't like it that they get shot for shit whites don't get shot for.

Black kid has a fake gun, he gets shot. Whites carry AR15's around town and don't get shot.

Black selling loose cigarettes gets choked to death.

Cops gets off for killing blacks every week.

Yea, blacks don't like it that black criminals are treated differently than white criminals. We aren't saying identify with black criminals. In fact, even us liberals side with you cons and tell blacks to not resist arrest and that if they weren't doing the crime they wouldn't have gotten murdered. 99% of blacks say that argument is bullshit.

So have fun with the 1% of blacks who actually agree with your spin. Ben Carson does.

What you should probably do is watch the television series C.O.P.S and take notice how black suspects interact with police compared to most whites.

What white person carries around an AR-15? Even if that was the case, it's legal to carry provided you have a permit or live in a open carry state. It's never legal to pull out a gun real or fake on a police officer. Nobody gets choked for illegally selling cigarettes. You can get choked by disobeying the orders of a police officer about getting handcuffs put on.

Most all police shootings of blacks have one thing in common: the suspect didn't obey the orders of the police officer.

Yea but we notice blacks who resist are treated differently than whites who resist.

No, they are pretty much treated the same way, it's just that most whites won't resist.

Lots of whites resist every day. They don't get killed.

They do if they present a threat to the police officer, just like blacks.

I'll even use one of your own leftist sources to prove my point. NPR

I witnessed a bar fight once. Short black guy vs an older, short white guy.


Black guy got arrested the white guy did not.


Was it racism?


Or was it the fact that when the bartender told them that he had called the cops, the white guy left, and the black guy stayed behind to bitch at people?


I remember leaving, while the black guy was outside, bitching at a pile of cops, just waiting for him to say or do something to give them a reason to take him in.


I walked down to another bar, and the white guy was there, drinking happily and telling everyone about the fight.



Different behavior, different outcomes.

They just look at the bottom line instead of the entire picture. The bottom line doesn't tell the entire story.

We've had many discussions here about race and sentencing. I finally asked a friend and coworker of mine about it. We've been friends since 8 years old. He not only works with us at the company I work for, he also has another full-time job in the courts.

He said there is no documentation or accusations about blacks getting tougher prison sentences, but his opinion is different. He thinks it does happen more often than we might suspect.

But guess what? The blacks he seen get stricter sentences were from black judges.

It makes sense too. If you were a white judge who hated black people, you couldn't do more damage to their community than to set criminals free back into their society. The worst thing you could do is send those criminals away so they don't come back.

If these black judges don't live in those communities, they likely have family or friends that do. So the best thing a black judge could do for those people is to take the criminal element out of their neighborhoods for as long as possible.

There’s a thread on it. Cons defending the female cop. Same cons who defended Zimmerman

And what are they defending her for? What are they saying?

She got ten years in prison, eligible for parole in five. For one, prison life is much tougher on a former police officer than your common criminal. Two, people who get stoned drunk, get into a car accident and kill somebody, get much less of a sentence than she did.

It was an accident. She didn't deliberately go into another persons apartment with the intent to kill.

Red herring alert. The cop who shot the black man in his own apartment was arrested and indicted for manslaughter. It could be murder. And no need to rehash Zimmerman as he was tried in court and in the court of public opinion and acquitted.

More blacks have gotten jobs under Trump and they are better off than when Obama was POTUS. Obama didn't help the poorer black people get jobs. He didn't help anybody get jobs. He didn't help anybody, but liberal idealists and socialism. That's why Trump got elected with his MAGA program. For blacks, it's the what do you have to lose program. They end up losing depending on welfare and having a regular pay check coming in.

"What I've done for African Americans in two and a half years, no president has been able to do anything like it," Trump said. "Unemployment at the lowest level in the history of our country for African Americans — nobody can beat that. You look at poverty levels, they’re doing better than they’ve ever done before. So many things. Opportunity zones. Criminal justice reform — President Obama couldn’t get it done."

Did you know there were dramatic decline in black unemployment under Obama?

This suggests Obama could also claim credit.

Trump likes to take credit for the long economic expansion, even though it is a continuation of an expansion that comprised nearly the entirety of Barack Obama’s tenure

And don't forget when the unemployment rate was going down on Obama's watch, you didn't believe the numbers. The second Trump got in you and Trump started believing the numbers. Lie much?

So, IOW, Trump made the right economic moves to accelerate the anemic recovery. And for that, you want to replace him?
