A fierce Washington, DC, grandmother stole the show at President Trump’s Black History Month celebration, defending him against charges of racism.
Forlesia Cook, whose grandson was killed in a 2017 shooting, took to the stage to praise Trump’s tough stance on crime and fired back at those who would criticize his treatment of black Americans.
“I love him. I don’t want to hear nothing you got to say about that racist stuff,” she said.
Her voice got louder as her defense of Trump continued: “And don’t be looking at me on the news, hating me because I’m standing up for somebody that deserves to be standing for. Get off the man’s back. Let him do his job. He’s doing the right thing. Back off him.
“And grandma said it.”
The crowd in the East Room of the White House went wild, applauding and cheering her.
Trump expressed his gratitude and encouraged Cook to run for office.

Why are they doing a black history month celebration?
Did any leftist news media show have that?
Because it’s Black History Month?
I don’t watch leftist news media; but I saw it on FOX.
Were you born last night, LOL?!? If they did, it would be Trump holds black grandma hostage during Black History month.
I’m sure the shirts are already being printed. Go grandma Go!!!
Why wouldnt they?
...just saw it!
she rocked it!💯👍💯👍💯👍💯👍
Exactly.
It IS black history month, after all.
She’s an amazing woman, God bless her
It would be a difficult thing for them to frame.
But they quote Hillary saying Bill Clinton was only contacting Epstein all those times for “charitable work” or “humanitarian work” related to the Clinton Foundation. Her nose grew really long.
“She’s an amazing woman, God bless her”
Can you imagine standing up with the PRESIDENT of the USA and speaking your heart like that? I would have a lump in my throat and my knees would be knocking such that I couldn’t croak a word or two. And I did a lot of public speaking in my career too!
She really spoke from the heart, the very same way that President Trump does. Then you look at all the Dem phonies who are lost once they have to deviate from their standard playbook — Harris, Crockett, AOC, Pochahantas, Booker, etc.
that took a lot of courage
He should ask Morgan Freeman about that.
Why do you think? 🙄February is black history month.
She was awesome.
“Grandmom said it!” is a ready made campaign ad...
Because Trump is an excellent showman and has made inroads into the black community by actually making things better instead of the useless or harmful garbage the Democrats do.
If he peels off just a portion, the Democrats are lost forever.
