Commentators on MSNBC and CNN have been shedding crocodile tears over Donald Trump’s “divisive rhetoric” and lamenting his failure to unify the country. This sudden concern for national unity is rather hard to take from the same worthies who have incessantly glorified the Black Lives Matter movement over the last year and a half.
Let’s dip into the rhetoric of a garden-variety Black Lives Matter march that I observed last November on Fifth Avenue in New York City. It featured “F**k the Police,” “Murderer Cops,” and “Racism Is the Disease, Revolution Is the Cure” T-shirts, “Stop Police Terror” signs, and “Hey Hey, Ho Ho, Racist Cops Have Got to Go” chants.
What about the rhetoric of Black Lives Matter leaders? Last October, DeRay Mckesson, one of the self-appointed spokesmen for Black Lives Matter, led a seminar at the Yale Divinity School, while his BLM ally, Johnetta Elzie (ShordeeDooWhop), tweeted about the proceedings. Mckesson (now running for mayor of Baltimore) had assigned an essay, “In Defense of Looting,” which justified the August 2014 Ferguson riots as “getting straight to the heart of the problem of the police, property, and white supremacy.” Elzie’s tweeted reporting on the class included “If you put me in a cage you’re damn right I’m going to break some glass” and “Looting for me isn’t violent, it’s an expression of anger.” (Let’s hope Baltimore residents do their homework before voting.)

As I read thought the article I see no mention of Trump whatsoever. Instead she used Trump in the title only as a way to lure people in to read her article. I agree with her article but if you think this is a piece in support of Trump, it is obvious that it is not.
She must be on two weeks notice and on her way to One America News.
I resemble that remark. There is no one more stupid than me.
She makes a great point that Trump and black lives matter are cut from the same cloth, twins with the same moral character and tactics.
NR just trying to double their readership from 10 to 20.
And not using "prolly" in place of "probably." As long as we're making the list, that one has to be on there.
I have some teenagers that I would put in the running ...
That’s very important, too. And holding one’s fork correctly, tines-up at all times.

Pathetic, isn’t it?
And even that he only does in half measures.
Thanks RoosterRedux.
.. and then gets a Nobel Peace Prize for it.

It’s true. The Democrats started it when they embraced Saul Alinsky in the early 70’s.
FNC, MSNBC, and CNN have totally lost the ability to find a man on the street interview in support of trump.
Must be losing readership.
My God! It was them who showed up at a Trump rally ready to “shut it down!”
Just another obvious example of how we are not supposed to believe what our eyes are seeing. Enough of the nonsense.
The only reason Trump is attacked is because he tells the unvarnished truth. And that will not be accepted in this Fascist Progressive Country being created around us.
BLM is Soros.
Soros banrolls it with tens of millions.
He transports the ‘protesters’ from Ferguson to Baltimore to Chicago on buses.
Trump, and I voted for Cruz, is not remotely in the same moral jungle as the BLM savages.
