Donald Trump attacks Spike Lee over 'racist hit' during Oscars acceptance speech
Fox News ^ | 25 FEB 2019 | Liam Quinn

President Trump on Monday blasted Spike Lee after the legendary director took a shot at him during his Oscars acceptance speech.

“Be nice if Spike Lee could read his notes, or better yet not have to use notes at all, when doing his racist hit on your President, who has done more for African Americans (Criminal Justice Reform, Lowest Unemployment numbers in History, Tax Cuts,etc.) than almost any other Pres!” Trump tweeted.

Lee, after winning Best-Adapted Screenplay for "BlacKkKlansman,” on Sunday night urged viewers to make the “moral choice” in the 2020 presidential race, as Trump seeks re-election.

“When we regain our humanity it will be a powerful moment,” the “Do The Right Thing” director read from his notes.

“The 2020 election is around the corner – let’s all mobilize and be on the right side of history. Make the moral choice between love versus hate,” Lee said.

The spat with the president comes after a tumultuous 24 hours for Lee, who appeared to try to storm out of the Dolby Theatre after it was announced that “Green Book" won the award for Best Picture.

I’ll say it again. It’s measured. Does not want to offend blacks. Just the ones who hate him anyway. He likes Taylor Swift 25% less, not 100. McLame? He had us in mind plus those that knew there was something phony about him. Rosie O’donnell is fat and ugly. He was being funny towards someone who makes her living being a joke.

Spike must favor keeping Blacks subservient, on welfare, and trapped in the hood through decades of Democrat social programs. He must not know that no Democrats voted for the Civil Rights Act and that the KKK was a Democrat group. Or that a heralded long-serving member of congress, Robert Byrd, was a KKK official (Democrats loved the guy). Wake up Spike. Democrats do nothing but use Blacks.

I don’t think it was an attack. I think it was a response to an attack.

Indeed, they are.

I haven’t seen ANY of the films nominated for “best picture” (nor do I plan to), but every one of them looked like leftist propaganda for blacks, women, homosexuals, or who / whatever their victim du jour is.

They come up with endless conspiracy theories about Trump and Russia, utterly blind that the films THEY make are even worse propaganda than the crap the Soviets put out decade after decade.

No wonder I watch Korean dramas.

Running AS A REPUBLICAN against HER. Had he run as a (d) even with the same platform they would LOVE him.

The left does not have values. The left has agendas.

Hollywood is an affirmative action program for ignorant punks who are black - or white. Too bad it exists.

Maybe he was auditioning to be the "Bell Boy" in the Quadrophenia remake.
