CNN's Marc Lamont Hill referred to Trump diversity team member Bruce LeVell as a part of a group of "mediocre Negroes" who met with the president-elect.

The characterization, which includes Pastor Darryl Scott and television host and comedian Steve Harvey, came during a panel discussion with host Don Lemon on "CNN Tonight" on Monday.

“They (the Trump transition team) keep bringing up comedians and and actors athletes to represent black interests. It’s demeaning, it’s disrespectful, and it’s condescending,” Hill argued. “Bring some people up there with expertise, Donald Trump, don’t just bring up people to entertain.”

Why didn’t he just call them “DEPLORABLE NEGROES” ?

I hope they see it that way. Then maybe all of us DEPLORABLES can unite and drop all this racism that OBAMA instilled back into the United States, and we can ALL become just “AMERICANS” again.

Sheriff Clarke blast Hill on Twitter saying he wants to keep blacks on Democratic Plantation

So is Mark Lamont Hill in his own estimation an excellent Negro, a mediocre Negro..or an overrated/third class Negro ?

[HarleyD]

Just make new leadership and sideline the old ones. It’s all about money and influence. Give these new people both and the old ones will fade away.

Mark Lamont Hill — the 3 word Name - supposedly lends credibility to the speaker

Similar to calling the 35-page IC report a “dossier” — to make us think aaaah 007 type stuff - when just crap.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

I guess he wants to see Trump talking to Beyoncé and Jay-Z about the problems of average blacks.

[left that other site]

yes.

The infamous Prof. Gates (Cambridge Police acted stupidly) actually TEACHES “Critical Race Theory” at Harvard.

And it is exactly what you say it is...Racism!

Fake CNNews would be happy to achieve mediocre ratings.

And Ben Carson, Alveta King, Martin Luther King III, Amorosa, and we can't forget Kanye West!

[FrdmLvr]

Mediocre Negros. That has to catch on.

BTW, I wonder how all of the blacks who have met with him like being called that by one of the biggest mediocre negros I’ve ever seen.

Good lord what a dog face.

Spoken like a true leftist, elitist, ivory tower, faculty lounge occupier, professor Lemont Hill.

There are two types of Negroes in this world:

Magic Negroes and Mediocre Negroes

Unlike the brilliant house n****rs for the democrats.

Yes, that’s right... they have been using you. What would you call yourself, Lamont?

[rgee]

this will be an interesting unfolding. I'm anxious to watch it as political “correctness” gets a boot it never expected. The entire media and entertainment leftists are imploding. I pray for the incoming President to bring his wrecking ball with him as he will expose, and deal with the lies and deceits of the leftists and globalists. Close the friggin border and stop the flow of heroin into our nation - it's destroying our youth while we all sit here watching! Go into the cities and purge our land of cartel drug thug creeps. Let's pull together to bring our Republic back from the edge.

Didn’t these enlightened lefties just call a black Senator a ‘house ni###r’ the other day?

To which he replied, “Senate”. LOL.

[Night Hides Not]

I “double dog dare” Lamont to say that to Charles Evers’ face. lol
