A panel of black political commentators on CNN imploded Thursday into a screaming match as they discussed the effect of President Donald Trump’s proposed budget cuts could have on the black community.
As the panel discussed the cuts, Paris Dennard, a Trump supporter, pointed out that HBCUs, the acronym for Historically Black Colleges and Universities, were not included in the list of proposed cuts. But host Don Lemon found the HBCU argument to be less important than other social programs.
“So a lot of people say HBCUs are important,” Lemon declared, “but there are a lot of people watching here tonight going, ‘HBCUs? I gotta eat, I gotta live somewhere. Great, yes, I would love to send my kid to a college, any college,’ and hopefully, maybe they want to send them to an HBCU, but why are you rambling on about HBCUs when we’re talking about urban development, about other education, about health and human services? There are more important issues than HBCUs.”(continued)

Despite all the grumbling, I usually enjoyed the meals in the service. We had one small mess hall on Camp Casey Korea staffed by school trained (Le Cordon Bleu, CIA, etc.) chefs that was better than a 4 star restaurant.
“HBCU”? ROTFLMAO.
As I’m sure you know I’ve been posting dozens of threads about companies hiring all over the place.
So it’s just black communities......I never knew that.
What about HWCUs?
some times a 2x4 to the head is more effective than gentle persuasion.
They are so predictable.....
Because democrats have done such a great job for the last.. how many decades now?
Anyone ever hear the song “I’ll Talk To You Later”?
Talk to ya later, don’t want to hear it again tonight
Talk to ya later, just save it for another guy
Talk to ya later, don’t want to hear it again tonight
I’ll just see you around
Get out
I’m telling you now
Do you catch my drift
What could be plainer than this
Says CNN’s disappearing audience.
Absolutely. President Trump’s message is that *anyone* can achieve prosperity. It’s not a zero sum game. Democrats kept blacks as slaves once and all that’s changed is the size of the plantation.
Dems have so much invested in holding minorities down. Trump, on the other hand has nothing to gain by seeing any American fail. He has a healthy enough ego to revel in the success of others.
This past election was the beginning of throwing off the shackles for many minorities. The awakening has begun. The Dems are masterfully exposing themselves for the hateful monsters that they really are. Soulless.
Come on over and join us here where we believe in hard work, happiness and prosperity for all who want it.
CNN panels exploding? - Probably not a bad thing. (Just as long as we infidels are outside of the blast radius.)
Why don’t Blacks try to figure out why they are apparently still so powerless in the face of budget cuts?
Blacks dying in cities not important. Big Bird and Elmo is a crisis.
How many non-liberal entertainments are funded with the budget?
He’s bringing jobs back. THAT will help Blacks, but the left doesn’t want them to work.
Job???
Ain't nobody got time for that.
I's got firteen kids. Whose gonna take care of all my babies?
“CNN panel explodes “
If only.....
>>As I’m sure you know I’ve been posting dozens of threads about companies hiring all over the place.<<

What about the children that will be hardest hit?
