Here Are The Most Intriguing Statements From Democrats And 2020 Contenders At Al Sharpton’s National Action Network Convention

Democrats made eyebrow-raising statements about identity politics and hot-button policy issues before a largely black audience in New York this week at the National Action Network Convention.

Democratic A-listers, including every leading presidential candidate, are speakers this year at the annual conference for the civil rights group Rev. Al Sharpton founded. It kicked off Wednesday and runs through Saturday.

The convention will “provide an opportunity to revisit the current state of the national civil rights movement in America,” according to the organization’s website.

Former Texas Rep. Beto O’Rourke, who spoke Wednesday, used his podium time to take potshots at President Donald Trump and stressed the theme of division and fear-mongering.

“We’ve got to make sure that we confront those who will use fear to hold onto that power as our president uses fear to hold on to that power, to make us angry, to keep us apart, to make us fearful of one another and even of ourselves,” the 2020 Democratic contender said.

Robert (white privilege) Doh'rourks speaks at the beginning? Lower attendance and get rid of him early since he's such a non starter? Which one is the prime act? Fondling joe? Comma-lah-toe? Jillybrand? gigaButt? Inslee? No wonder they needed so many days. Butt, probably loser abrams the headliner? If anyone hears, let us know since I WON'T be tuning in.

I heard Ari Fleischer defend ‘Ol Joe yesterday, saying he grew up in a different era where hugging, hands on shoulders were a part of being friendly....I sort of agree but kissing on the mouth and hands on breasts or close to breasts were verboten. Joe’s body language is also way too familiar and his hands too intimate.....

Beto - “We’ve got to make sure that we confront those who will use fear to hold onto that power as our president uses fear to hold on to that power, to make us angry, to keep us apart, to make us fearful of one another and even of ourselves,” the 2020 Democratic contender said.”

And in that statement he is the one who is actually trying to spead fear and sow divsions among us. Every time the Dims speak they have looked in the mirror and then start accusing others of doing what they are the ones doing. THEY are the “race” baiters, the haters, and the the dividers.

Al’s doesn’t deserve to be called “Rev.” He has never had a church, never had a congregation, never went to Divinity school, and has never done anything to earn the title. He was given that false title by a DC preacher when he was 10. He’s perpetuated the lie ever since.

Beto also did a 180 at this thing and says he now supports reparations.

I’m sure his Hispanic constituents, who were not even here during slavery, are gonna love forking over their hard-earned cash for THAT!
