In a Thursday appearance on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” network host Al Sharpton accused President Donald Trump of attacking his predecessor former President Barack Obama amid the Department of Justice’s review of the 2016 Russia investigation under Obama’s leadership because “he is so upset that Barack is everything he would have wanted to be in life” while also being black and not having a “rich father.”
Sharpton argued Trump is polling poorly among black voters because he goes after Obama and because he does not address black Americans’ issues or concerns, pointing to black unemployment in recent years and the coronavirus pandemic.
“It’s a strange thing about black voters — they are very similar to other voters,” Sharpton stated. “You do for those that do for you and address your issues. When you look at the fact that even under the best economic circumstances of the last three and a half years, blacks were still doubly unemployed, and the president never addressed that, never said here’s a plan for that. When you look in the pandemic, where it has gotten even worse, he has given some verbal statement, ‘Oh, I’m concerned,’ when it was raised at a press conference — only when he was questioned, ‘I’m concerned blacks are dying or being found positive with the virus at a higher rate than whites.’ That’s the last we heard from him. No plan for that.”

Well, that doesn’t make any sense.
Right...Obama spent his life begging for money
Sharpton was tired of no publicity about himself lately, so he stuck his head out and uttered some attention getting nonsense. Sharpton doing what Sharpton does.
Trump is jealous of Barack’s beautiful wife? is that it?
Sorry Sharpton, that’s a significantly lame statement.
Agreed. Sharpton needs to up his game.
No,I didn't think so.
Damn, man...you can't even read, or you've been skipping over the unemployment figures, or you're just an idiot. Yeah...let's go with that last one.
Trump has created Jobs - Obama hasn’t
Trump rebuilt our military - Obama did not
Trump LOVES the USA - Obama does NOT
Trump has a BEAUTIFUL wife - Obama does NOT
Trump is SUCCESSFUL at life - Obama SUCKS life out of people
Well, he does have Michael.
Doesn’t pass the laugh test.
HALF-black
If there were any doubts that the DNC thuggery is seeking tomanipulate black people to keep them on the DNC planation, the mouthy Sharptoon should clarify it. The dnc must manipulate black people to ramp up their hate energy so they will not vote for any Republican. Disgusting but tue. Next will be Jesse Jackass and the KKK of blacks, the Black Panthers. Strap in folks, the next few months will be hallmarked by race baiting by the dnc like we have never seen! The demon rats will do their father’s bidding until America is no more.
That’s funny and creepy all at once!
Trump really wishes he had Michelle as a wife.
Yes, Al
Especially when it comes to wives
You sick racist SOB
RESIST.
WE.
MUCH.
