President Donald Trump called a Black Lives Matter mural to be painted on 5th Avenue outside Trump Tower "a symbol of hate."

The president slammed New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio's decision to reallocate $1 billion of the police department's annual operating budget to the Department of Education and social services.

This comes after Washington, DC Mayor Mueriel Bowser had "Black Lives Matter" painted in yellow block letters large enough to fill 16th street, which leads to the White House.

Trump should have embraced the mural, and after it was finished, he should have held a press conference of him signing the mural in Silver Sharpie.

(Please read the tagline before flaming...)

I would agree 300%! Maybe somebody, anybody, will take this as a lead to do the same thing.

Especially if you read the context of his tweet. Unfortunately he did not mention the “What do we want? Dead Cops! When do we want them? Now!” chant...

He is not wrong.

Black Lives Matter’s basic ethos is that ONLY Black Lives Matter.

Or at least they matter more than those of any other race.

Philosophically that’s just half a step from where Hitler was.

Black Lives MatterTM is simply a corporation with a board, a CEO, a focus on profit, etc. Is any corporation allowed to paint the streets of New York City with their name?

How about Target, Dick's, Ben & Jerry's, etc.? Can they paint their names over the streets?

How about TRUMP / PENCE 2020!!!!?

Well clearly it is: hate of Trump. No other reason to give him the finger by (1) renaming the street the white house is on (2) painting “Black Lives Matter” on the streets around the white house and (3) paining a big “Black Lives Matter” mural across from the white house. Pure hatred driving all that.

....horrible BLM chant, “Pigs In A Blanket, Fry ‘Em Like Bacon”. Maybe our GREAT Police, who have been neutralized and scorned by a mayor who hates & disrespects them, won’t let this symbol of hate be affixed to New York’s greatest street. Spend this money fighting crime instead!

How could any police officer...ANY of them not vote for Trump?

He sounds like their only government ally at any level of government in the country!

He needs to call out Black Lies Matter as a domestic terrorist group headed by self-admitted trained Marxists, supported and financed by wealthy democrat donors. He should also specifically mention the murder of cops by Black Lies Matter supporters or activists, further linking them to the democrats by pointing out that 0bama had invited Black Lies Matter into the White House on numerous occasions.

Doesn’t their very name “Black Lives matter” define them as a Racist Hate Group??

There are a whole lot of decent, Christian black people in this country who see through the BLM farce. Frankly it’s being driven mostly by young white Leftists from the suburbs.
