Mark Fisher, a co-founder of a Black Lives Matter chapter in Rhode Island and founder of a new BLM-related organization, is on a media tour advocating for Donald Trump to be president in 2024.
"Everybody else sucks," Fisher told host Kim Iversen in a recent interview.
After Iversen asked if he thought Trump was simply the best of the worst and "not that great either," Fisher clarified his views.
"I like Trump, you know. Personally, and I think right now who we have sitting in the Oval Office is just a deep disappointment, you know? I deeply have disdain for him, and I really dislike the vice president, as well."
Fisher was the co-founder of BLM Rhode Island but has appeared to hold the same views in his new role as the founder of Black Lives Matter, Inc.
In January 2022, he told a black business association website that his vision was "to see a world where Black people are no longer subjugated to and oppressed by a white supremacist ideology in any form or facet and at any level, and wherever it may rear its ugly head that it be swiftly eradicated."
For his new company, the about page lists a nearly identical vision. In the text, the term "black people" is simply replaced by "African American people."
"We want to create wealth," Fisher told Iversen. "We want to gain wealth, leave something for our children, you know."
Being anti-capitalist wasn't Fisher's only reasoning for condemning Democrats. He also said their stance on abortion went "against the laws of nature" and the "laws of procreation."
Fisher also claimed that black Americans have been "mental slaves" to the Democratic Party, who have "abused" them for so long. He added that Trump is "the opposite."
"He’s gonna tell you how it is. He’s gonna give it to you straight. He’s not gonna [be a] hypocrite and stab you in the back like the Democratic Party loves to do."
At the same time, Fisher recently made headlines for defending those who were jailed following the events of January 6, 2021.
"They’re lambs led to slaughter to be sacrificed as an example for all who might want to dissent in the future,” Fisher told the Epoch Times. "This is what the government does to those who express independent thought and want to stand up for what they believe."
What is the Ebonic word for “but?”
Guy’s pro capitalism and anti abortion. Hates the government and supports Jan. 6 prisoners.
Sounds like we have an infiltrator of our own.
Dogs and Cats living together, mass hysteria!
Is this from the Bee? On the serious side, this sounds like a good thing. Sounds like this guy’s figured a few things out.
Something smells rotten and it’s not in Denmark.
Alinsky?
Sounds like the beginning of the great awakening.
Why would an avowed communist endorse President Trump?
You could be right. Sounds like someone may be opening his eyes. We can only hope.
This doesn’t register on my “Do I care” meter.
“Everybody Else Sucks” sounds like a campaign slogan from “Idiocracy.”
Truth prevails!
That was my first thought. Damage Trump by having really nasty people endorse him.
The election fraud will have to be huge.
Never trust your enemy.
A lot of people are ignorant and mixed up about who is actually but later figure things out.
a candidate cannot stop someone fro endorsing him... he can not acknowledge it and hope they go away...
maga will not be influenced by such endorsements.
power to the people!!
rise up and throw off the chains of DNC oppression!!
orange is beautiful, baby !!
... am I doing this right? ...
