Moments after the special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, wrapped up his appearance at the Justice Department on Wednesday, Representative Dwight Evans stepped out of his district office in a black working-class neighborhood here to visit with local business owners. They had one question on their minds: Why is President Trump still in office?
Mr. Evans, a Democrat who began calling for Mr. Trump to be impeached long before Mr. Mueller issued his report, was not surprised: The issue that I hear constantly here is, We sent you for one reason only: to get rid of the president, right? Why havent you gotten rid of him yet?
In cities around the country, black Democrats like Mr. Evans and other House members who represent majority-black districts are hearing much the same from their African-American constituents, as well as from white liberals who have moved into the nations urban core. Those views are translating into action on Capitol Hill, where Speaker Nancy Pelosi is under increasing pressure from her rank-and-file to hurry up her time frame for what many see as an inevitable impeachment inquiry.

They want some coup just like they do from the home continent. Did not Trump outperform other GOP POTUS candidates in attracting African-American votes?

Trump is giving Blacks their jobs back. Then they won’t be so dependent on the government. Then they will resent high taxes. Democrats want them unemployed and receiving welfare.

Some “black commentators” are even DUMBER than Maxine Waters.
Hard to believe they know enough to still remember to breathe.

Trump is giving Blacks their jobs back. "He's forcing us to work, like we was slaves, again."

Simple question from simple minds.
"Because of the rule of law. As if you care about that. I'll see you at the ballot box, voting for me, about 17 months from now, bwa ha ha ha hahahahaha! I'll be the one with the white gay male fake Christian abortion-genocide supporting running mate! Jerks! Ha ha... did you hear the one about MLK being a sex pervert? Oh, man, I crack me up!"

We sent you for one reason only: to get rid of the president, right? Why havent you gotten rid of him yet?
So the sole reason that this guy was elected was to unconstitutionally unseat a legally elected president who has done nothing wrong. IIRC the black congress critters, white lefties and the media started the diatribe that when Trump was elected president there would be lynchings, beatings, and general mayhem. Didn’t see any of those things. Then when he took office there was the “Russians who interfered with the election and that’s why he is in office. 35 million and 2 1/2 years later they have proved nothing!! So I guess the reason they want him out now is because of white privilege. I’m not sure about everyone else on FR but I for one am getting pretty darn sick of the stupidity of people in this country...it exudes from their every pore.

It eludes me how Hillary, Maxine, Fauxahontas, any of the Black Congressional Caucus members, or even a third term of 0bama would have improved the situation for Blacks in any way.
