Trump is absolutely right about ‘con man’ Al Sharpton
NY Post ^ | July 29 2019 | Bob McManus

Posted on 07/29/2019 11:18:29 PM PDT by knighthawk

Once upon a time, when I was editing this newspaper’s opinion pages, somebody decided that it wouldn’t hurt to have a slightly more cordial relationship with the Rev. Al ­Sharpton.

So there we were, in a Manhattan steakhouse, discussing not much because it quickly had become clear that Sharpton enjoyed being New York’s premier racial grievance-monger, so there was no common ground to be had.

But he did show a flicker of interest in a $350 cognac on the after-dinner menu — glancing over with amusement in his eyes as the waiter hovered. “If you do, reverend,” I said, “I’m asking for separate checks.”

Al Sharpton is the godfather of the modern race crime hoax, but that’s hardly breaking news.

Of course, Al Sharpton is a 'con man'. Most Americans know this, but wouldn't admit it in public for fear of being called a racist.

In one series of tweets, President Trump has neutralized 'con man' Al and forced the dims to defend the indefensible.

Formerly Fat Al is playing with fire. He called Trump’s cabinet conmen. Trump will fire back with a broadside.

“There is another class of coloured people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs — partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.” ― Booker T. Washington

Sharpton is an extortionist plain and simple, he has the media ear because he makes news and sells papers and his victims whites and corporate America keep him in business, He should be in jail for tax evasion

He is also the godfather of modern black racial violence and murder, as evidenced by Freddie’s Fashion Mart - and he set a precedent in race-baiters avoiding prosecution for incitement.

I remember his heyday (under Dinkins), and then when he was an outcast (under Giuliani - completely ignored). The media would cover a “protest” with six people walking in circles; more press people than protestors, no wide-angle shots to hide the lack of a crowd, etc.

Freddy's Fashion Mart got him back in the limelight as well as being a "good friend" of Sean Hannity.

CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

Condemning the racist and anti-Semitic views of the Reverend Al Sharpton

Whereas the Reverend Al Sharpton was found guilty of defamation by a jury in a New York court arising from the false accusation tha former Assistant District Attorney Steven Pagones, who is white, raped and assaulted a fifteen year-old black girl;

2 HCON 270 IH

Whereas, to this day, the Reverend Al Sharpton has refused
to accept responsibility and expresses no regret for defaming Mr. Pagones;

Whereas the Reverend Al Sharpton’s vicious verbal anti-Semitic attacks directed at members of the Jewish faith,
and in particular, a Jewish landlord, arising from a simple landlord-tenant dispute with a black tenant, incited
widespread violence, riots, and the murder of five innocent people;

Whereas the Reverend Al Sharpton’s fierce demagoguery incited violence, riots, and murder in the Crown Heights

Whereas the Reverend Al Sharpton led a protest in the Crown Heights neighborhood and marched next to a protester with a sign that read, ‘‘The White Man is the Devil’’;

Whereas the Reverend Al Sharpton has insulted members of the Jewish faith by challenging Jews to violence and stating to Jews to ‘‘pin down’’ their yarmulkes; and

Whereas the Reverend Al Sharpton has practiced the politics of racial division and made inflammatory remarks against whites by characterizing the death of Amadou Diallo as a ‘‘racially motivated police ‘assassination’ ’’: Now, therefore, be it

1 Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate
2 concurring), That the Congress—
3
HCON 270 IH
1 (1) condemns the practices of the Reverend Al
2 Sharpton, which seek to divide Americans on the
3 basis of race, ethnicity, and religion;
4 (2) expresses its outrage over the violence that
5 has resulted due to the Reverend Al Sharpton’s in6 cendiary words and actions; and
7 (3) fervently urges elected officials and public
8 servants, who have condoned and legitimized the
9 Reverend Al Sharpton’s incendiary words and ac10 tions, to publicly denounce and condemn such racist
11 and anti-Semitic views

Seeing Fox News staff refer to him as “Reverend” years ago was sickening; they are little better than MSNBCNN.

I believe he was officially ordained a minister at 13 years of age - seriously. No reason to take him or Je$$e Jackson seriously when they both ran for president and not a peep was raised about separating “church and state”.
