Trump fails this lesson on Black History Month
Sacramento Bee ^ | February 2, 2017 | Erika D. Smith

On Wednesday, the first day of Black History Month, President Donald Trump walked into the Roosevelt Room of the White House and surveyed the faces of the black people seated all around him.

Why every black person in that room didn’t get up and walk out after that is beyond me.


I know the feeling. Felt that way every time Obama opened his mouth

Sorry Erika but The Donald is who he is and talks like he talks.

America didn’t hire him to be just another empty suit crooning liberal cliches.

BFD. There shouldn’t even be a “Black History Month”

It’s nothing but a whitewash of all positives and not one negative. That’s a true portrayal of “Black History”?

Just another “I Hate Whitey” trying to be relevant.

He wasn’t going to win with the author no matter what he said. “Haters gonna hate.”

Yeah, that Trump. How offensive. Sitting down with African American leaders, trying to figure out how to make our cities safer.

She really thought that would play. Worse, everyone around her let her believe it.

“Meanwhile, in Sacramento, Black Lives Matter shut down a freeway onramp at the peak of the afternoon commute. More than 100 people showed up to protest an infuriating decision by the Sacramento County District Attorney’s Office to exonerate two police officers in the fatal shooting of a black homeless man, Joseph Mann.”

Black History Months seems to embrace Black Lives Matter, hate the police and inconvenience the working citizen.

An angry bitter screed from an angry bitter hag published by an angry bitter rag.

She never does get around to telling us why the Blacks should have up and left the meeting at what Trump said.

There was an obscure reference to some imperceptible difference between “African Americans” and “the African Americans.”

Of course, it was only imperceptible to white-privileged racists and bigots like me.

Good bloody grief! Will these people ever stop?

Then again, as Howie Carr says, their grief is my joy.

Some California Freeper labeled this fake paper from the capitol of LaLa Land, the “Excremental Bee.” It is appropriate.

Everyone knows that Trump is a bit eccentric and says dopey stuff sometimes, but he’s on the right track and gets stuff done. When he was talking to the Harley Davidson guys, he said the pipe for the pipeline is “ bigger than this room.” Actually the pipe diameter might be at most 48”. I cringed and thought, “who cares?”

President Trump speaks like every person who is unscripted, unhandled and rather a real person.
And as far as talking about Frederick Douglass as a “live person”... not really. He just said he’s “...hearing more about his accomplishments lately” and “..he did a great job”. That could be taken in either present or past context. Let’s back off these stupid nonsensical things leftists... get a life. Better yet get a new country.

Maybe because they're tired of watching the Democrats parse every word to find some hidden meaning to use against the Republicans, while their Democrat run cities decay and their children are being gunned down in huge numbers.

She calls them “her people”. She’s mixed like myself, but my people are fellow Americans. She can get the hell out of here with that bullsh*t. Besides, what the hell would she know about violence in the hood? She looks uppity. Bet she’s never seen the bad side of town.

It’s now called African-American Heritage Month. Donald issued the new designation.
