Trump becomes first president to skip MLK Day proclamation

[longly]

I can't wait to hear Struth come and defend this.

You don’t really expect Donald Trump to give a competitor for a Nobel Prize any support, do you? Some people just have those super‑egos. That’s why I admired Ronald Reagan — he didn’t seem to have one. Name a person in politics who doesn’t have an ego. Obama had one, Clinton had one — most of them do. Having a big ego isn’t necessarily a big deal; some people just control it better than others.

Don’t mention Dr. king's name too loudly. Who knows — the Nobel Committee may dig him up, transport him to Oslo, and award him another Peace Prize. After all, Obama received one for being a black president.

Pregame ceremony? When do you see black folks complaining about Latinos? That would be the very white folks that you buck dance and boot lick for.

Che would find you useful.

No.
You are OBSESSED with race. And hatred.
The rest of us are not.
We're live and let live.
We're "let me see what you got!"
We're "I don't care what color you are. I just care about what kind of American you are."
From what I can see, you're a really shitty one.

If that were true we would have never had racism or discrimination in this country. You say you remember the days of Jim Crow, do you remember WHITES ONLY SIGNS? It's easy for a white man to say that bullshit, because you weren't on the receiving end of racism and discrimination.

Donald Trump has become the first U.S. president since Martin Luther King Jr. Day was established to not issue a proclamation honoring the federal holiday, breaking a tradition observed for nearly 40 consecutive years.

At the time of publication, there is no Martin Luther King Jr. Day proclamation from Trump posted on the White House’s official website, its social media accounts, or in the Federal Register. These proclamations are usually signed days in advance of a holiday and even if Trump signed one late, his administration isn’t making the proclamation public in a timely manner. Therefore, for all intents and purposes, Trump is skipping the presidential emphasis on the MLK holiday.

The absence marks a sharp departure not only from presidential precedent dating back to Ronald Reagan, but from Trump’s own first term, during which he issued MLK Day proclamations every year from 2018 through 2021.

Martin Luther King Jr. Day was signed into law by President Ronald Reagan in 1983 and first observed as a federal holiday in 1986. In his 1986 proclamation, Reagan said, “Dr. King's activism was rooted in the true patriotism that cherishes America's ideals and strives to narrow the gap between those ideals and reality.”

My bad, it was posted an hour ago.

Hmmm, after slavery there was love everywhere wasn't it? With so much love why was there a need for a CRA or VRA. I guess when folks were being lynched, that was just love. I came up at the back end of Jim Crow, so unless you were living during that period you can't tell me a damn thing about hatred.

Yep, you racists only want to recognize stuff you think glorifies the white man. The 4th of July is fake news for blacks, Native Americans, Women and, in reality, all poor white men who didn't own property. You say you have a degree in history, but can't recognize the complete history of this country.

It is truly ironic how you Anti-America libtards larp as American History Buffs yet simultaneously lose your ******* minds over Trump and claim he's the worst thing to ever happen to this country.
MAKE UP YOUR MINDS

Who cares?

Every decent American!

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Only by racist who continue to try and discredit him. I bet fools like you love Jesse Duplantis.

It is a matter of public and historical record.

The problem with you Trump butt lickers is the fact that you don't realize that he is the worst thing to happen in modern history.

So STFU.

As unhappy as I am with Trump on several key issues I commend him for not honoring that devout Communist and rabblerouser King. Gold star for Trump in this instance.

I lived in Florida when I was very young. And, yes, I do remember Whites Only signs.
And my point is simply this: That was 65 years ago.
Those days are over.
Long gone.
Get the **** over it and move on and stop being OBSESSED with racism. It's eating you up like cancer.

You're an idiot.


All Democrats are.

He's a racist bastard.

They all are.

He wasn’t racist when he was writing checks to useful Democrats until he decided he wanted to be President.
