Rev. Al Sharpton told attendees at a Center for American Progress Action Fund event Thursday he would flee the country if Donald Trump won the election, in order to avoid being deported by Trump.
Sharpton, a Democrat, had positive feedback for many of the Republican presidential candidates until he got to Trump.
"If Donald Trump is the nominee, I'm open to support anyone [else], while I'm also reserving my ticket to get out of here if he wins, only because he'd probably have me deported anyway," Sharpton told attendees, who responded in laughter.
Sharpton, who has participated in various national protests condemning police brutality, did not explain why he thinks Trump would deport him, though both New Yorkers have publicly shared their differences of opinion on various issues.
The Democrat is expected to endorse Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders for the party's nomination and has spoken with both about their views on issues that relate especially to black voters.
AL SHARPTON ENDORSES TRUMP!
LOL.... Best election EVER!
He just added another ten points to Trump!
This keeps getting better and better ...
And those campaign pledges keep rolling in!
Wow !!!!!!!!!
Al’s leaving and the weirdo from The View.
Maybe Whoopie will join them and they can all go to Burkina Faso.
.
Good list. We’d be better off without all of them.
If anyone should lose their passport ....
Al owes the IRS MILLIONS, and Donald would go after him to pay!!!
Sharp ton belongs in jail for income tax evasion. He needs what Al Capone got.
It was a minor mistake.
Al didn’t mean DEPORTATION, he meant he might have to leave to avoid PROSECUTION.
yep
to avoid paying BACK TAXES OF about $2 million
Just judge the man by his enemies!!!
Is Sharpton going to pay all of his back taxes before he self-deports???
All the more reason to vote for Trump!!! LMAO!
LOL Funny!!
Don’t know about deportation but an all expense vacation at the Graybar Hotel for Tax Evaders might be in his future.
FWIW - Sean Hannity has offered to hire Donald Trump's plane to fly him anywhere he wants to go if he will promise not to return. I am sure others would be happy to chip in.
Pay your back taxes before you leave.
