They did visit Cuba early in Obama’s first term

They continue to show us all what childish, and immature behavior looks like.

If I was Trump, that would be the last offer of that kind. If they want a later meeting, I would not be available!

At the core, the Black Caucus doesn’t want to mend race relations. They don’t want solutions. They thrive on unresolved grievance. Eliminate the grievance, you eliminate the reason for their very existence.

This is probably the single most stupid thing this body could do.

I would ask them to list the specifics of what their concerns are and what they want the president to do about them. How many of them would ask for more money for “programs?” Most, I’d bet.

Race based bigotry.

I wonder if the Black Congressional Caucasus has to file a campaign contribution report with the FEC for this boost to the Trump 2020 campaign?

I bet he can meet with ministers and businessmen from their districts

The CBC is all about race. The President could (did) promise to rebuild Detroit and make Chicago safer, and the CBC would still obstruct him.

I told my wife last week that President Trump could cure cancer and they’d call him a racist for not curing sickle cell anemia.

....I’ll bet they’d meet with Raul Castro, Nicolás Maduro or Kim Jong Un if one of them asked, though....

Don’t forget Satan.

Good, now that the CBC has proven themselves to be uncivilized, the time to squash them is now.

Make an example out of them. Let the public know exactly what they are and what they do. Their power in congress will barely lift a piece of paper afterward.

The existence of a race-based caucus is disgusting.

It would even be understandable if they used their 'concentrated' power base to actually improve conditions for the black culture.

Instead, they line their own pockets just like the rest of the politicians.

And next week they’ll be crying because nobody consults them, nobody cares about their wants and needs, nobody includes them - Republicans are racists......

Why are these people in congress? Throw them out.

They are no more and no less corrupt than their non-'black' counterparts in Congress. They don't even run the CBC, it's a white guy in charge.
