Biden: If Black Americans stormed the Capitol, Trump wouldn’t be ‘talking about pardons’
Politico ^ | 5/29/24 | Myah Ward

resident Joe Biden tore into Donald Trump over his record on race on Wednesday, targeting the former president for his past comments before a crowd of Black voters in Philadelphia.

“What would’ve happened if Black Americans had stormed the Capitol? I don’t think he’d be talking about pardons,” Biden said. “This is the same guy who wanted to tear gas you as you peacefully protested George Floyd’s murder. It’s the same guy who still calls the ‘Central Park Five’ guilty, even though they were exonerated. He’s that landlord who denies housing applications because of the color of your skin. He’s that guy who won’t say Black lives matter and invokes neo-Nazi, Third Reich terms.”

“We all remember, Trump is the same guy who unleashed the birtherism lie against Barack,” he continued.

Biden’s remarks came as he and Vice President Kamala Harris rallied supporters at Girard College, where they launched an organizing effort to win over Black voters. The campaign is planning an eight-figure investment in engagement with Black student groups, community and faith-based organizations across battleground states in the coming months, and Biden’s comments were among several direct appeals to Black Americans.

“Donald Trump is pandering and peddling lies and stereotypes for your vote so he can win for himself, not for you,” Biden said. “Well Donald Trump, I have a message for you: Not in our house, and not on our watch.”

It wasn’t the first time the president has leveled such attacks against Trump, but Wednesday’s speech marked the most forceful rhetoric he’s used. And it served as a response to efforts by Trump and his allies to appeal to voters in Democratic strongholds, including Atlanta and a heavily Latino and Black neighborhood in the Bronx. In his own campaign events, Trump recently has slammed Biden’s policies...

I seem to recall that Trump paroled several blacks who had long term sentences for non-violent offenses after Obama had left them in jail. It was a big deal because one of the Kardashians was publicizing the case.

Has the SS# aspect been resolved ?

Assigned SS#s have coding similar to area codes and it is reported Obie’s would be for someone born in the NE, Connecticut, iirc. ?...and thus a false SS# borrowed from a deceased citizen, apparently

I thought it was started by Hillary in 2008.


Campaign-wise, yes. This episode was if not the full reason, a substantial reason, why Obama made Hillary promise not to hire or communicate with Sid Blumenthal as a condition of being appointed Secretary of State.

The origins were apparently from Obama himself when he was portraying himself as a foreigner to sell one of his books.

I must get my eyes checked! I thought I saw different races at the J6 protests. Was it only whites who were there?

Is the new group the 'Slaves for Jim Crow and Biden'?

Why would Trump, or anyone else talk about "pardons" if Marxist/Ignorant blacks (along with their Marxist/Ignorant white Leftist comrades were storming the Capitol because of an "injustice" to George Floyd?

Especially if it were done "peacefully" the way Black Lives Matter and Antifa protested.

Oh, wait. That DID actually happen, and barely anyone (relatively speaking) was arrested or imprisoned for the violence, setting things on fire, attacking police, etc.

The problem they have and don’t see is...everyone knows they’ve jumped the shark already. Nobody listens to him. Everyone knows he’s done. So escalating the hyperbole and throwing around extreme racial language isn’t just met with a yawn, it isn’t even met...who is listening to Biden? He couldn’t fill a small town church.

It was Hillary Clinton— there is a solid record of this, and the guy who fronted it to the US was a major democrat operative attorney who has SOLID facts to back up the FACT that obamaumao was NOT and is not US born to even one US citizen parent. Starting with obamaumao’s public records from his “college” days... stating he was KENYAN!!

Then Indonesian, attending a MUSLIM school as a MUSLIM!

Slow Joe keeps telling Blacks that they do not have a chance in the world except through him. What a disturbing message. The whole world hated you except me. You have NO CHANCE! without me. And what is ‘”he” - a senile old fart who is on his last legs.

St. John’s Episcopal is across the street from the WH. Not federal/WH property. You are correct about the moron JoeBama and his pals forget about THEIR Church burning, and they LOVE Gen. Milley’s and SecDef Esper’s apologies for walking across the street with Trump in support of his stance against BLM/Antifa which the Mayor of DC did NOTHING about.

Racist biden can’t escape himself. He has a history of racism and racist “friends”. What a divisive putz and criminal. I bet there were many “blacks” at the January 6th gathering (as well as other “minorities”).
