I hear Pelosi and Schumer are considering Smollett as a Democrat operative---he' so perfect for Democrats' purposes.
Semi-black (says his father was Jewish), gay, hates Trump. Smollett's someone the Democrats need to get back power---a practiced con man.
He’s been pictured rubbing elbows with the upper echelon of black and semi-black politicians. Did Jussie decide this stunt would cement a role (so to speak) for him at the very top of the Dim party as a must-have celebrity at any event, future WH invites, etc?
