Actor Anthony Mackie endorsed Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump Monday during a promotional interview with BET for his new film Our Brand Is Crisis, and was immediately vilified online for being black and embracing conservative ideas.

...

“I would 100 percent want to run Trump’s campaign. 100 percent,” Mackie said. “I mean, first that’ll be the best party ever when he won, and second, Trump’s an easy sell.

…

It wasn’t long before Mackie’s endorsement created a backlash on Twitter. Ira Madison, staff editor for New York Magazine, tweeted Monday:

Anthony Mackie always looks like he’d love to get called a n***** in a Quentin Tarantino movie

It didn’t sound like an endorsement. Maybe a Freudian slip. He just mentioned he’d love to run campaign because of easy win and afterpary.

but Trump could get 20 percent of the black vote.

And now that FReepers have blasted Ted Cruz to hell on another website over his stand on the TPP, H1b, and Corker bill, I have the choice of voting for someone who had pretty much completely opposite of his current views several years ago or staying home already.

i fear in a short while, I will already be sitting out the general election.

Careful with your English grammar. It is “too” old, not “to” old.

In 2008 the Republicrat pundits still had enough of a following to make that BS stick, that's the difference.

Now most people have realized that the "Conservative" pundits are nothing but actors in the Worldwide Bull-crap Federation verbal wrestling matches that are scams very much like the WWF wrestling scams.

Fred Thompson also has a problem with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL), a form of cancer. Even though it might not affect his life expectancy, the perception was there. It certainly did not stop him from having kids. With his present wife, Jeri, they have a daughter Hayden born in 2003 and a son Samuel born in 2006.

woops (hold the presses) minor correction: Ira Madison III..."always looks like he would love to be called" a house Negro for liberal plantation magazines in a bad Woody Allen film!

LOL

[SoFloFreeper]

I don’t recall that either, Jim.

Maybe a post or two...but I can’t recall them. Certainly not a notable segment of the FR population.

[SoFloFreeper]

but, but, but....Donald Trump, according to the media, is racist!

[MARKUSPRIME]

Dude plays the Falcon, Captain America’s sidekick, he should be conservative. LOL.

[Guenevere]

Then you should be able to tell us who they are.....
I don’t remember this......I liked Fred.....thought he had gravitas and vigor!

Trump has even more vigor.....
...his son, Eric, talks about the amazing energy Trump has

Did you see Fred back then? He was suffering from cancer and looked 80. Trump is healthy and looks 50. Same thing with RR, who was 10 years older than Gorbachev but who looked 10 years younger.

[Chode]

100%!!!

[Jane Long]

Actually it wasn’t that Fred was “too old”, it was that he had “no fire in the belly”

THAT ^^ was the reason, not age.

Your absolutely currectamondo, go ask Jim Rob, I signed up in 2004, I had a problem with my pass word on my last account.

[American Constitutionalist]
