Why Civil Rights Attorney Leo Terrell 'Stopped Drinking the Democratic Kool-Aid'

One of the talking points that continually comes out of the Democratic Party and the Democratic Media Complex is that the Republican Party is racist or filled with white supremacists because people support law enforcement officers and don't immediately bend the knee to the rage bomb. Most of them seem to forget, however, that it was the Republican Party that pushed for freeing black slaves, which lead our nation to the American Civil War. It was President Abraham Lincoln – a Republican – that delivered the Emancipation Proclamation. It was the Republican Party that championed the landmark Brown v. Board of Education Supreme Court decision that created desegregation in schools. Democrats were against all of those things yet they are somehow put on a pedestal as if they have always advanced the needs of African Americans.

It's those very reasons that civil rights attorney Leo Terrell has had enough of the Democratic Party.

"This is why I stopped drinking the Democrat Kool-Aid. I can’t take this hypocrisy anymore. It’s ridiculous," he explained during a Friday night segment on "Hannity."

Hoping that some of his "discussions" with Larry Elder aided in his 'alleged' turn away from the evil dems. If he has actually escaped the demtation, good on him.

I remember over a decade ago he got into it with the NAACP and I think that was his cue that the kool-aid wasn’t anything about civil rights.

I’ve always appreciated his passion. I pray that Leo Terrell finds peace in His life = Christ Jesus.

How many times does it have to be said? Racism is the most indefensivable and reliable charge progressives have in their arsenal!

I’ve always like Leo. Not always agreed but I believed there could be a discussion there. Many others are ‘Stuck on Stupid’ -h/t General Russell Honore

Terrell always had a scowl on his face, he always looked angry, like his underwear was too tight. I remember watching him spar with Hannity a lot. But people can change.

He’s a smart man, I’m glad he saw the light and I hope he helps spread the word.

I used to see him on Fox and had to stop because he was always so sullen and angry.

Now, I LOVE him!

Yes, I noticed the change in his personality. He now appears smiling, relaxed and less angry.

Yup! I dont get that either. The Dems created and defended slavery from the beginning and it took a war to deal with them.

Apparently the war ain’t over after all. The ‘demtation’ is alive and well.

If Leo Terrell just discovered demonRAT hypocrisy he is the dumbest black man on the planet.

Leo has been pimping, race baiting clap trap for decades.

Something else is happening here.

I think Leo discovered that there is a better paying market for a "born anew conservative" on FOX than just another bitter old race pimp on pmsnbc.

Leo is a lawyer, and like all lawyers, they can switch sides, with the drop of a dollar.

All lawyers are pimps and liars and are proud of it.

In law school, they must be able to change positions, from one side to the other, without missing a beat, and they do it proudly.

My own lawyers, that won much money for me were whores that even billed me when we were at a dinner that I was paying for.

Leo has not converted, he has discovered the "Fountain of Hannity Dollars".

The best part for Leo, is that on hannity, he won't have to say too much, because Mr. 99.999% pure, hard working fbi agents, will say it for him.

I also wonder if something else is going on.

Couldn’t stand the guy. Laura Ingram would have him opposite Candace Owens and he would rudely interrupt with the usual black rat boilerplate. Had to mute or fast forward him.

Now? Could be the money like you say. I notice he hates biden. Maybe biden screwed him over somewhere along the line.

Leo Terrell:

By spring 1964 MLK had been labeled an ‘Uncle Tom’ by firebrands in SNCC... Violent Panthers and poverty pimps were quick to follow.

AND the leadership of the black community switched from the ultra responsible(men who had guided the black community through some of the most difficult times in history) to poverty pimps whose best talent was shaking down white liberal ‘elites’...

And the black community slowly lost their way... no fathers, no respect, and no movement forward - - as every other ethnic group passed them by...

Leo Terrell is on KABC radio here in Los Angeles and other stations. Many years ago he would be the one yelling at the callers or hosts. I have not heard him lately, maybe his doctor told him his blood pressure was too high so he calmed down a bit.

Has Candace Owens opined on Leo Terrell's presumed epiphany anywhere?

I'll believe his conversion is real, if he has the guts to issue a formal apology to her.

FReegards!

Civil Rights = Civil Liberties = Liberty which does not equate with the Democrat party and the left.

Good thing I suppose. I always remember seeing him on Hannity. He was always scowling, angry looking, yelling. Talk about needing to lighten up.

Black people were sold into slavery by other blacks (hey - now they just kill each other). It was white Christians in England and the US that put an end to it.

Leo is maybe actually LOOKING at what Trumps has done for the black communities NOT just lip service but actual deeds done!! Biden has been NOTHING but lip service for decades AND he has been totally against school choice or anything that would improve black communities!!!

The slave trade appealed to prospective slave-holders’ greed for easy living and control of his destiny. It makes perfect sense that con-artists would become the tradesmen/criminals to develop the supply chain. The mindset of the conman (& woman) lies at the heart of Democrat politicians’ actions. They’re con artists, shaking down marks while lying and cheating their way to control. Seems like I’ve seen Dinesh D’Souza come the that conclusion before me.
