The Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) on Wednesday rejected President Trump's invitation for the 49-member group to join him at the White House for a meeting, citing his unresponsiveness on previous attempts at policy engagement as proof that Trump isn't interested in working with the members beyond a photo op.

The CBC should go visit Venezuela to see how their policy desires would work out.

Trump reaches out a hand to them and they don’t take it.
Jerks. There is no other appropriate word for them.

If you really want a white caucus, you don’t belong on a conservative forum.

If I was Trump that would be the last time that pack of clowns ever heard a word from me.

President Trump should tell them, “Meet me and there will be no photographs. I want to help the people.”
To: EveningStar
Yeah refusing an invitation by Trump sure shows that Trump doesn’t want to engage with them. /s
Bunch of left wing racist lying political phoneys.

Could not this invitation be President Trump’s attempt at policy engagement? It’s not like he’s in his second term and giving them only an afterthought. These whiners sure know how to spoil the cheese. Typical progressive snot nosing.

What was that saying about how fast Presidents age? That for every year a person is President they age 5? Trump does not look healthy at all in this pic. I respect the hell out of this guy so much. This is a billionaire who as we speak could be sipping Margaritas on Montserrat for the rest of his life having hot babes feed him grapes, but instead he takes the most stressful job in the world, and at the worst possible time when the US government is at it's most corrupt. He is doing it to help ME and YOU, and you know what? He is going to succeed. We are witnessing history here.

Why the hell is there a Congressional Black Caucus?
Is there a Congressional White Caucus?
How about the Congressional Asian Caucus?
Shouldn't there be a Congressional Jewish Caucus?
If anyone needs a caucus shouldn't there be a Congressional Native American Caucus?
Or a Congressional Methodist Caucus?
No president should give the Congressional Black Caucus the slightest whiff of legitimacy or respect.
The CBC members have signaled loud and clear: if you are in their district but are not black, they do not represent you.
