Basketball legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar has penned an editorial highly critical of President-elect Trump.
Never before in modern history have we had a president-elect so ill-informed, ill-tempered, irrational and ill-equipped to deal with the major issues that face this country, Abdul-Jabbar writes in the new edition of The Hollywood Reporter. [ ]
Abdul-Jabbar argues that a quick look at two of the black faces that Trump parades on television as proof of the diversity of his entourage is actually evidence of his using black shills to distract us from his paternalistic policies to dismantle civil liberties for people of color, women, the LGBT community, Muslims and immigrants. He singles out Ben Carson, Trumps Secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), writing that it's like picking Elmer Fudd to run NASA.

Hey Kareem, go hustle for once and get back on defense!
Why did all these Black People wage War with their Oppressor’s and when they finally got something they immediately JOINED THE VERY PEOPLE THAT WERE OPPRESSING THEM????
Get that man off of the stage. Give him the hook—the Sky-Hook!
Alcindor let the mask drop on this one.
He’s been trying to act like an open-minded moderate, impartial voice of reason with no bias.
He gave it away with this.
Brain surgeon Ben Carson just a shill? What good did Lew Alcindor do, other than dunk some basketballs?
Yeah, distract us from booty-shaking, twerking entertainers.
Abdul either has a writer or has been chugging Liberal Alphabet Soup.
Almost worthy of a blog post.
So if Trump didn’t appoint blacks he’d be racist. If Trump appoints black then the blacks are shills, Uncle Tom’s ...
Go to Saudi Arabia, you wanna-be Muslim. Ben Carson is ten times the man you are.
He’s a surgeon, you just bounce balls.
I always get my advice from guys who made a living playing with balls and dribbling.
Hey Kareem, just strap on a suicide vest and take out a terminal at lax already. It’s what your team does.
Kareem, nobody is asking you for an opinion, unless it’s to serve as a reliable parroting of propaganda. You have dug yourself into a deep rut, now rancid with rhetoric. You may be the world’s first 7 foot tall ‘invisible man’.
Are they pictures or picks?
Blogs are so ate-up.
Apparently race and abnormality are all these people can think about.
Sad.

What an absolute racist pig. Go shoot a basketball, moron.
Just another big time racist.
COME ON LIBERALS. Can’t you come up with something new? I mean. “That’s Racist” is just so cliche. At LEAST call Trump’s black allies “uncle Toms.”
(Does any liberal even know who Uncle Tom was? Have any of them actually read “Uncle Tom’s Cabin?” Could a single liberal name who wrote the book? What was so wrong with Uncle Tom who tried to keep a family together when the liberals have done everything they could to destroy black families?)
