In South Carolina, Democrats Accuse Trump of Sowing Racism

COLUMBIA, S.C. - Democratic presidential candidates in South Carolina Saturday accused U.S. President Donald Trump of stoking racism as they vied for the state’s black vote in its strategically important early primary.

Former Vice President Joe Biden, U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont and five other Democrats participated in a forum at historically black Benedict College a day after Trump was presented an award there for his work on criminal justice, sparking outrage among candidates and temporarily prompting Senator Kamala Harris to pull out.

Harris, a former district attorney and state attorney general in California, spoke at the event Saturday after the 20/20 Bipartisan Justice Center, which gave Trump the award, was removed as a sponsor, according to her campaign.

A spokeswoman for that nonprofit group, which continued to be involved in organizing the event throughout the day, did not respond to a request for comment.

“I said I would not come because I just couldn’t believe that Donald Trump would be given an award as it relates to criminal justice reform,” Harris told the audience.

Guess they didn't see that the president is getting a 42% approval rating from black men.

That is what the left does - name-calling, false accusations, personal attacks.

That is interesting.

The DUMB LIBs accuse the president of sowing racism on the SAME stage where he had just received a prestigious award from a BLACK college.

BEAM ME UP SCOTTY!!!!!

These arsewipes can and do say anything they want and if the President balks or strikes back they call him thin skinned and accuse him of using his office (which they claim EVERYONE ‘hates’ him) and strike back just for spite.

Any Democrat who speaks before a mostly black audience such as Benedict College or Allen University (the two are adjacent) will assume, especially if from outside South Carolina, that the theme of `racism’ always sells.

Which is a form of racism in itself, to imply that black voters are incapable of thinking for themselves. PDJT is cracking that assumption even as we speak.

IIRC, Biden has already showed up before the same audiences here and done his shuck ‘n jive about “dey gonna put you all back in chains!”.

Just like Hillary had her Wellstone moment yesterday & put on her best (worst?) Butterfly McQueen accent. How condescending.

So predictable, so boring, so lame. So racist.

Let’s see, the highest start-up rate for black-owned businesses in history, the lowest black unemployment rate ever, prison reform which reduces sentences for inmates, a large percentage of whom are black, etc.

Yeah, President Trump is a racist. Sure he is, you lying RATS.

I believe that 42% support figure has been debunked. Apparently Jim Holt at GP misinterpreted the poll results.
