Diamond and Silk (Lynette Hardaway and Rochelle Richardson) at the Republican National Convention, July 20, 2016.

Diamond and Silk were interviewed behind the scenes at the Republican National Convention by Breitbart reporter Aaron Klein.
When asked by Klein why they are supporting Trump instead of Hillary, who claims to be the candidate for women, they said, "We won't vote for a crook. We won't let a crook off the hook!"
With their characteristically memorable style of commentary, the video stars also discussed Black Lives Matter, as well as their reasons for their wholehearted support of Donald Trump for President.

Trump would not be where he is today without those 2 ladies.
Hope they had a great time at the convention. You just know they did. And I hope Trump helped provide them with deluxe accommodations while there.
But kinda surprised they haven’t put out a new video since last Sunday.
I had hoped they would have a prime time speaking slot; but I’m sure the competition for those from all kinds of organizers was intense. I’m looking forward to hearing about it on their next post. They must be exhausted from the trip. She mentioned that they were greeted by so many fans on the floor of the convention.
Did they even speak at all? I don’t think they did. Trump wouldn’t be where he is now without the help from these two.

I'm a fan, also -- I think they have great appeal to southerners and women particularly. It's possible that they spoke during some of the non-broadcast or warm-up events for the delegates -- I hope we hear from them on this. The Trump campaign did help promote their Women for Trump events in several states, and placed them in the "people to interview" pool there at the convention. Waiting to hear more from them as soon as they release their next video!
They use great visual imagery in their speaking — they say things that you instantly picture in your mind. In the Milo interview, Diamond said, “Hillary don’t need to be goin’ around to black churches with the hot sauce and doin’ the Ne-Ne; stop pandering to us!” It’s hilarious first and then the knife goes in.
I missed that interview.
On YouTube?
Yes; the link is above with the title, and then I posted four more links in post 7.
Another priceless quote from the Milo interview (link in post 7):
“He ain’t done nothing [to his critics] but tell the truth. Do people want to hear nekkid nasty truth or a well-dressed lie? TELL the nekkid nasty truth! End this political correctness! That’s going to set us all free.” –Diamond
“That’s right!” –Silk
I enjoy these women also, but the idea Trump would not have been where he is today without them, is misguided.
Trump is where he is at because of his decisions to voice the right policies far and wide. He should also be given kudos for sticking to those policies when attacked by the media and others.
Diamond and Silk were a great spice on a fine meal, to be sure.
Remind me again how blacks, women and especially black women hate Trump.
I know, right? Not only are these two women, and black women, they said in the Cent Uygur interview that they were political neophytes and Democrats before this election. What a steep learning curve that they mastered 100% -- Uygur throws every Democrat talking point at them (link in post 7) and they threw the right answers back instantly, over and over. He tried to bully them and patronized them and utterly failed. They are an American treasure.
I’m glad Silk got a chance to speak up. She’s usually just affirming Diamond’s commentary, so it was good to know that there’s a brain behind her pretty face as well.
Umhh, hmmph. She’s a dandy.
He should put them on staff. They basically got him the black vote other than Obama's ineptitude himself.

She's as bright and well-informed as Diamond; just not so "out in front." -- maybe more personally shy. Love them both!
