Sharpton: Trump’s Claims He Has Helped Black Community Is ‘Absurdity
Breitbart ^ | 06/19/2024 | Pam Key

Posted on 06/19/2024 9:03:38 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

MSNBC host Al Sharpton said Wednesday on “Morning Joe” that claims former President Donald Trump helped build economic security for the black community was “absurdity.”

Sharpton said, “You must remember that after they stopped Reconstruction and went into this era that ended up with Plessy v. Ferguson, 1896, there was no legal change till 1954 with Brown v. Board of Education. You’re talking about a span of almost a century. We’re the only race that, by law, couldn’t do certain things. We had biases against others that came to the country, but we were named by law not to have equal rights. And we’re talking about my parents, my grandparents. So you’re right. You can’t erase that in a generation, because by law we couldn’t do certain things.

“You must remember that after they stopped Reconstruction

They stopped Reconstruction. Who is They? The Democrats.

... and went into this era that ended up with Plessy v. Ferguson, 1896, there was no legal change till 1954 with Brown v. Board of Education.

That's the Jim Crow era. That's "separate but equal". Who was doing all of that? The Democrats.

... You’re talking about a span of almost a century.

Well, 58 years. from 1896 to 1954. But if he means the end of Reconstruction, that was 1877. So 1877 to 1954 is 77 years. Not quite a century, but hold that thought ...

... We’re the only race that, by law, couldn’t do certain things. We had biases against others that came to the country, but we were named by law not to have equal rights. And we’re talking about my parents, my grandparents. So you’re right. You can’t erase that in a generation ...

So now I think we're discussing the era from 1954 to 2024. That's 70 years. That's about 3 generations. And it's been downhill for blacks that whole time. Not because of the law. But because the blacks kept voting for their Democrat oppressors who kept screwing them over.

The Republicans have always been the best friends to the blacks. But some folks are just too dumb to see it.

I once posted the video for this, many years ago, and Sharpton was also right there with Jackson in the video where they both praised Trump. So far I can’t find the video but here’s an article about it.

Sharpton is no more a "Rev." than I am. He never went to Divinity School, he has never had a congregation or church. He was "ordained" by a DC preacher at age 10 and has perpetuated the lie ever since. He always takes the position that blacks are the victim. And even when he's proven wrong (Tawana Brawley, the Duke Five, etc.), he never admits he wrong. He's a total fraud.

Chrissakes, never call him “Sharp Tongue “. Someone with a “ sharp tongue “ is clever, witty and intelligent. This guy isn’t any of those.. This guy is a charlatan plain and simple. This guy is also a scumbag

I’d be willing to bet that Trump has donated more, and helped more black people (personally) than Biden could ever think about (using his own stolen resources).

Maybe Sharpton wasn’t in the video, but the point is made:

How many black men have gotten to earn an honest day’s pay for an honest day’s work because of something Mr. Trump did?
