Well, they’re not “asking,” they’re DEMANDING.

Enough with the clickbait. You don’t own the words.
Just post it here.

**************

The MSNBC guest’s warning to Joe Biden that he must “pony up” and not just “appease” white voters was sponsored in part by Allstate, Proctor & Gamble, maker of Vicks, and Shark Vacuums.

Here’s the transcript.

MSNBC

BRITTNEY COOPER: Look, I think that part of the thing the Democratic party really has to think about—and this is going to be Joe Biden’s reckoning—are they going to get into office and make this about appealing to centrist voters, make this about appealing to Trump voters, make this about a kind of easy unity?

. . .

Now you’ve got to actually pony up a policy agenda that’s going to speak to black people’s interests. And it’s not going to be about centering and assuaging the 70 million voters who voted for a very different kind of world.

And so, I’m both excited and elated about what this means, but I have my eyes laser-focused on Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, because black folks are asking for real policy concessions here to make our communities better, real investments.

And we aren’t asking to be unified with the kind of people that would deliver Donald Trump to another victory. We are asking for a forward-looking, future-pressing agenda. and you can’t celebrate black women, you can’t celebrate Kamala, and Stacey, and Representative [-elect] Nikema [Williams] and Latosha Brown [of Black Lives Matter], and all of these black women who made this thing happen, and then get into office and focus your entire attention on appeasing white voters because they fell out of the fold. That can’t be the political agenda of this moment. And I think we will have hard truths and hard wrestling over these next couple of months.

How did an ugly ex lineman from the NFL end up being a professor?

Stacy Abrams worked out next to her at Planet Fatness--I mean Planet Fitness. They lost five pounds but gained them back by each of them snacking after the workout on a half gallon of ice cream, one ten inch chocolate cake and a 2 liter bottle of Coke.

Stacy: "See? Them diet joints never really work."

Darn, those didn’t exist when I got my political science degree long ago. Guaranteed jobs for those in the private sector.

The hate filled Toxic Masculinity-—How To Destroy It course would have been worth working my 3 part time jobs. Born at the wrong time, I guess.

Trump already has a Platinum Plan for his second term to employ up to 3 million Black people and create up to 500,000 Black-owned businesses. Geez.

Trump already has a plan to continue payments on what Black minister and Civil Rights activist Alveda King* calls a bounced check. So now this idiot is urging Biden to do something similar. WHT does that say about Biden???

I sincerely hope that Latosha Brown isn’t the woman that was ranting in Chicago about how it was OK to plunder high-end stores in the city because that was how some people got fed.
