Trump Spokeswoman: Malcolm X Is 'My Idol,' Republicans Are Racist
the Daily Caller ^ | January 22, 2016 | Peter Hasson

Posted on 01/22/2016 11:19:28 PM PST by Cincinatus' Wife

Since joining the Trump campaign as a national spokeswoman in November, Katrina Pierson has served as an attack dog of sorts for Donald Trump, attempting to expose his critics and opponents as faux conservatives who are simply pulling the wool over the eyes of the American people.

And yet, Ms. Pierson's own statements reveal she is a self-proclaimed devotee of Malcolm X (whom she has referred to as her "idol") and has a history of attacking conservatives as racists, sneering at Christians who are unable to "handle the truth" and mocking candidates who open up about their faith on the campaign trail as preachers who would be "great if we were electing a Jesus."

Pierson points to Malcolm X as a large source of her ideological founding, much like the leaders of Black Lives Matter do. Pierson has called the radical figure a hero and is open about her literal idolization of him, explaining that "MLK was too moderate for me.".........

[BIG SNIP of material worth seeing]

.........Despite spending a great amount of time personally attacking conservatives, Pierson has remained the self-appointed arbiter of who is or isn't conservative. In response to National Review's "Conservatives Against Trump" issue, Pierson - without a hint of irony - indignantly questioned whether: "'conservatives' whom no one ever heard of before 2008 all of the sudden think they own the place?"

I believe this woman used to work for Cruz.

In 2011, Cruz supporter, Glenn Beck, denounced the TEA Party as “racist” for supporting Gingrich over Romney.

In July 2014, he and Cruz threw a welcome party for invaders on the border, complete with soccer balls and teddy bears.

In Sept 2015, he denounced TEA Party members who support Trump as “racist.”

In other words, Cruz supporter Glenn Beck is a nutjob, and Cruz accepted his endorsement and is campaigning with him today.

and I thought Malcolm X had a lot of admirable qualities.

He did. That's why they had him killed.

AND Ted DID hire her for his presidential campaign...before she left him for Trump.

Do you have any documentation for that?

Katrina says she did not work on the Ted Cruz Presidential campaign.

Which is probably why she was able to be on unemployment.

She was an avid supporter of his Senatorial campaign as a Tea Partier and a friend of Cruz and his father.

She also was on the road to help McDaniel so I guess it could be said she left that endeavor "for" Trump.

I am going to have to see real proof that this woman feels this way. I just saw a anti-Trump video this morning and wonder how much of it is cut and paste and stuff taken out of context.

The MSM and the GOPe are pulling out all of the stops to find something to stick to Trump. I would have a hard time believing that Trump would hire anyone as a spokesperson that might be divisive like this.

Good work as always, nopardons. The Cruz ship is sinking so they’re not even bothering to do advanced research.

That’s clearly some black benefit or other.

The Donald paid the Central Park Jogger bills and has denounced not only those thugs who perpetrated the crime (and don’t try and sell me that those thugs were innocent), he has denounced Al Sharpton over the years.

I was once at an event where Al Sharpton was on the podium. Didn’t make me a supporter.

Not surprising the "dirt" Trumps tried to keep under the carpet would surface......many more like her are working this "gig" for Trump.....Spokespersons for Trump are a dime a dozen in his "circle" of friends and acquaintences.....expect him to begin to draw on Hollywood stars soon......as will Hillary.

Here's his current Spokespersons tweet....

....."an opportunist and self-promoter.I guess 'that type' sees value in aligning with Trump"......

Well...even Sarah sold out for the lure of political/hollywood celebrity so no surprise a host of people are doing so as well. After all it's A Gravy Train...you jump on or not..... Heck Bob Dole who opposed Ronald Reagan is for Trump now. ..That's quite a record of bad judgment....and many out there like him as well.

The “Tweets” aren’t hers. It’s a third rate smear job.

I’m a Cruz supporter but I’ve known Katrina long before she became Trump’s Spokeswoman.

Can we move beyond school yard smears?

I like a lot about Ms Pierson, but I will never accept her ‘admiration’ for Malcolm X. That said, her private hero worship is her own affair and her own statement. not Donald’s.


I spoke with her this morning. She never “Tweeted” that. It’s a smear job by Daily Caller. It’s about as accurate as “The Conservative Tree House” hit jobs on Cruz.

True...but truth is no longer significant to His followers....they’ve set their own better judgement, (many had to begin with regarding Trump), this is how deception works. It appeals to all the emotional senses until the choice is a feel good choice rather than one based on truths.

Is Katrina guilty of this stuff? I have no idea and neither do ANY OF YOU !


I spoke with her this morning. The “Tweets” aren’t real.
