The daughter of legendary NFL Hall of Famer Jim Brown has endorsed former President Trump, citing his support for the black community during his first term in office.
In an interview with Fox & Friends, Kimberly Brown spoke of how her father’s relationship with the former president “opened her eyes.”
“My dad went to go meet with President-elect Trump, and when my dad went to go meet with the president-elect, that really opened up my eyes,” Brown said on Friday. “I stayed neutral for about a year within his presidency, and after that… I came out as a Trump supporter because I saw the moves that Donald Trump was making.

“Give me the ball!”
It seems that the apple does fall far from the tree. Her father was a lifetime criminal.
We got some good news. So you think 3 days before the election is time to trash it? Her dad repented being rough here and there and became a Trump supporter. His daughter watched from the sideline for a year and decided to support Trump too.
Might be a good time for you to STFU.
Might be a good time for YOU to look at his criminal record then YOU can STFU. He was a criminal. His first offense was probably before you were born. He literally threw a blonde, white female off of a second-story balcony! That was followed by a very long list of criminal charges AND convictions! YOU can STFU again! Truth is truth. I think that you must be delusional not to see the truth! Now you say that he ‘repented?’ No one can recover from the physical AND emotional pain caused by being thrown off of a balcony! How can he ‘repent’ that? He CAN’T!
If you don’t comprehend the power of repentance, then you don’t know the truth.
That’s right.
Well said.
Well, that's something. Don't know if it carries any weight.
How does one ‘repent’ after throwing a defenseless female off of a balcony? Does he simply say, “I’m sorry,” to the air and that lets him off the hook and that lets him then repent? NO!
Case in point: Could Hitler have ‘repented’ just before his death and that makes the Holocaust OK?
Get real.
Additionally, after a life of criminality if you agree with this ‘repent’ humbug then at the last moment before his death he can simply say, “I repent,” and that makes his lifetime of criminality OK?
I call that, “BS”!
The problem is that he never paid for throwing that poor female off of the balcony. He should have received life-without-parole for that offense alone.
And you want to “forgive” him. I feel great sympathy and empathy for you and your kind.
True repentance is of the heart.
It’s likely Jim Brown truly repented.
Do you comprehend what this means?
If you think it’s wrong to throw women off balconies (like the rest of us do) then you’re obligated to know the origin of such a standard. Otherwise, you’re operating blindfolded.
There are no moral standards apart from the ones that come from God Almighty.

I have to assume, sir, that you cannot comprehend what seems to be your native language. Please reread the very first sentence of my original post where it says, to the effect, that the apple does fall far from the tree! ;-)
Yes, I comprehend what the word, “repent” means. What is your point? I asked about Hitler. Why didn’t you answer that question, huh?
Try to realize that I have nothing negative to say about religious people. They stand for something and that is admirable. I simply do not believe all of the mumbo-jumbo which religious people believe considering that there is no rock-solid proof of any forever life or supreme whatever.
I was raised in a cahotlic home. I attended public schools but was FORCED to attend something called catechism every Thursday afternoon at the catholic school near the house. We had to march as if in the military with an adult in attendance to make sure that we did not skip out on the catechism while marching to the catholic school. In addition, I was FORCED to go to church every Sunday. If that wasn’t enough, I was forced into becoming an altar boy! Even as a young child I knew that it was all poppy-cock.
There are simply too many conflicts and too much hypocrisy in religion. Suddenly “repenting”is one of the hypocrises. A criminal has been a criminal for his entire life then he can suddenly be ‘forgiven’ if he ‘repents’ and that makes everything OK. I simply cannot buy that. A criminal should pay for his criminal activity and never be ‘forgiven’ if he ‘repents’. ;-)
The truth is that I do not even like to discuss these matters because what usually happens is that religious people start quoting bible passages to me, such as you have done, lefthandedly, instead of wanting an honest discussion. I do not even bother to read the bible passages because I do not know which bible the people are quoting because there are so many versions of the bible. That should be a clue to everyone, don’t you think? ;-)
I certainly hope that I have explained myself fully so that you understand my point of view instead of talking down to me condescendingly and asking if I know the definition of a word, which is the usual tack for religious people. Their next move is usually to start calling names, such as, “Oh! You believe in evolution!” OR “Oh! You are an atheist!”. As if that is a criminal view! Neither would be true because I simply do not know what I am in that regard. If push came to shove I suppose the closest I could get would be, “Agnostic.”
;-)
I forgive you. Go sin no more.

See? I already told you what you would say! In my opinion, and I repeat, my opinion, there is no God Almighty, Supreme Being or Creator of all things, period. Please, do NOT try to convert me. I know who I am! Why can you not simly accept my opinions and not try to sway me? I have already accepted your opinions and said that I admire you. What more do you want? ;-)
LOL Finally I see someone with a sense of humor! ;-)
You’ve accomplished much with this post to me.
1. I now think differently about you.
2. My heart is softened towards you.
3. I’m convinced we would get along well in person.
I will simply speak to you as one human being to another, and please know I give you great respect because I believe you’re so entitled.
I believe that if there is a God of pure love and truth (different from the one shown to you by forceful and hypocritical church people), then both you and I would desire to know him.
I also believe that if such a God exists, then it seems logical to assume he has enemies who distort and obscure his goodness.
