Turning Point USA's plan to "red pill" black America for Trump should concern Democrats. Here's why.

On Wednesday, President Donald Trump joined Kanye West in tweeting his support for Candace Owens, the black liberal-turned-conservative who serves as communications director for Turning Point USA.

Turning Point is the pro-Trump nonprofit organization that brings controversial right-wing speakers like Ann Coulter and Milo Yiannopoulos to college campuses. In March, Turning Point’s founder, Charlie Kirk, interviewed Trump at the White House during a Generation Next forum where conservative millennials and administration leaders talked about policy and how it affects their lives.

It’s clear political strategies centering on black America are being brainstormed at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, and TPUSA is playing a major role in the process. Kanye West’s cozying up to Owens and Kirk, and expressing his love for Trump, certainly hasn’t hurt. On April 29, Kirk and Owens met with West at his Calabasas, California, compound. Shortly after, Trump credited the rapper for an erroneous approval-ratings boost among black male voters.

In the past, Trump’s been accused of using famous black people like Steve Harvey, Jim Brown and Ray Lewis to disingenuously get support from black voters.....

Wasn’t it Mad Maxine Waters, who said at a DC abortion rally something like, “I must march for abortion, because my mother couldn’t have one”.
= = = = = = = = = = = = =
I often offer that it is a shame that the loudest proponents of abortion didn’t have families that had the same thought xx years ago?

Idiot Waters is known for flapping her gums before brain(???) is in gear...While we may realize what she is TRYING to say, the finished product is counter productive..

Almost as good as her ‘ If Kim nukes the US, Trump will get us in a war”.. again I (sort of) figured out what she is trying to say but the finished product is priceless.

Libs/radicals are apoplectic that a strategy to de-program American blacks from nearly a century of communist poison might work.

Please explain what is disingenuous about pointing out to blacks how horrible Leftist social policy has been for all of America, but especially black America, over the last 50+ years.

I hate modern so-called journalists.

“Democrats have DESTROYED BLACKS!!! “

Even Alicia Garza one of the co-founded the Black Lives Matter recognized this!!!

The light bulb is turning on with the middle class blacks who are paying attention. They are starting to get it.

Trump is hardly a racist....

“Back in 1998 and 1999, Trump worked with Jackson’s Rainbow/PUSH coalition to help offer a way to get African Americans into corporate America and improve their communities through building projects and jobs. Jackson praised Trump’s savvy business aplomb not once, but twice.

“We need your building skills, your gusto, your [unintelligible] for people on Wall Street to represent diversity, and we thank you for coming tonight. Let’s give Donald Trump a big hand,” Jackson said at an event captured by C-SPAN cameras.”

The freebie slaves of all colors will never wake up. Why should they?

To some degree, Obama made this possible.

West said it himself. Obama was president for 8 years and nothing got better in Chicago.

I believe “Red Pill versus Blue Pill” is from the “Matrix” movies and describes waking up to reality versus staying asleep and believing what our masters want us to believe. It has nothing to do with spirit cooking, pizzagate or the rest of that nonsense.

I’m not sure about that. Maybe I should go ask Alice.
