Nikki Giovanni: Trump Should Crash And Burn
The Huffington Post ^ | January 25, 2017 | J.D. Myall

“The best thing that could happen to America would be if Trump and Pence were on a plane that crashed and burned.” - Nikki Giovanni.

My mouth hangs wide, it takes me a minute to think of my next question. Nikki Giovanni, the famous poet and distinguished university professor makes me speechless. I want to talk about her nomination for the Maya Angelou Lifetime Achievement Award. We could chat about her friendship with Maya Angelou, or her NAACP Image Awards. I would even be eager to talk about her Grammy nomination or her love of literature, poetry, and cooking. I didn’t expect Giovanni to make such an explosive statement. But if she wasn’t true to herself, she wouldn’t be the Nikki Giovanni that readers adore.

Her words echo and clog up the air for moment. I disagree with Trump on almost everything. Yet, I wouldn’t have the nerve or the desire to wish him and Mike Pence a fiery death. Humanity is more important than politics.

The best thing for America would be if Nikki Giovanni and all the people who think like her were on that plane instead.

Just another exposed pathetic lefty loon. They just keep coming out of the woodwork by the droves.

Never gonna Nicki.

The President and VP will never be on the same plane.

Besides, look at the current cabinet, the next SCOTUS and the line of succession and ask yourself “How does my childish improve anything?”

The main point of Trump’s win was SCOTUS and in 8 years your judicial hacktivist agenda will wander in the desert for the next 70 years.

Because it doesn’t end at SCOTUS, which is the icing. It ends when judges throughout the system are replaced, particularly in the 4th and 9th.

IIRC, it was her picture that replaced the picture of Shakespeare at Yale. I almost feel sorry for the students who have to look at it every day.

Whoa.

I thought it was a young person making that statement.

Now it appears to be someone with dementia and turrets.

Sad way to enter the dusk of your life...

I know about Nikki. She was on par with another female communist years ago; Angela Davis. I recall my sister saying it’s ironic that many of the most hateful and militant Black Power icons of that time were also very lightskinned, and almost able to pass for white in some cases.
Many of these people spend most their lives trying to fit in somewhere. Inspirations to people like Rachel Dolezal.

No one needs to teach you to be mean; we need to be taught to be kind.

Nikki Giovanni

I think that tells you all you need to know about this person.
