They’re worried about the Jews as well...hence the whole “white suprem” confab they concocted.

Since the 0bomb is half white, he may have had ancestors who owned slaves and thus should be among those paying reparations.

Some blacks might, but damn few Hispanics would.

Obama’s mother’s family owned slaves, which makes the Hopey Changey One guilty as sin. But as his terrorist pal Bill Ayers once said, “Guilty as sin, free as a bird”.

So of course the rats resort to buying off the blacks with government handouts is better than blacks being gainfully employed and independent of government “charity”.

They’re really despicable - still working at enslaving people to enable their own power.

I’m not sure it’s going to work that well anymore...Candace Owens isn’t the only one who sees through this.

I keep my eyes open on Instagram, and there are lots of Blacks supporting Trump over there. Hispanics are supporting him too.

Of course this isn’t a valid cross section, but I never saw these minorities supporting Bush like this.

Reparations for slavery in America? The Jessie Jacksons and Al Sharptons push this as the business of making money on the backs of Blacks...it is a business, this keeping American Slavery alive and paying.

Candace Owens is a remarkable young woman who is with much success, closing many Sharpton and Jackson plantations but finding her fight much tougher against the Radical Left, who want that voting block to stay on the plantations. GO CANDACE!

The luckiest blacks in world history ended up in the USA. Yeah they had bad times and my ancestors who settled here did too though not claiming to be as bad.

Only about 6% of those sold into slavery ended here. Brazil got about 35%, the Caribbean 11%.

Here they dominate professional sports, have incredible incomes and lifestyles as entertainers and professionals..... work in law enforcement, as soldiers etc etc....

Seriously, this victimhood, reparations narrative has some hard dots to connect.

I got 4 names that stand for conservative African American leadership
Diamond and Silk
James T Harris (radio superstar for the conservative circus)
Hot rockstar Candace Owens (she botchslappedthe demos in her witness statement to congress)!!!

They are making inroads by being bold and outspoken in stating the truth...No more ‘blacks on the democrat plantation’ for these leaders!

It’s all about gathering those back into their fold they’ve lost. Any and all minority types as well as various foundations and groups.

But Demorats are primarily interested in their canidate to run as ‘a product’ they can market and that they think voters will buy... Sort of like O’Rourke is the ‘shinning object’ out there currently to say “Looky here!.....Harris and Booker so they can say we have the brown team over here.....etc. etc.

But in the end they’ll gather all the candidates voters into one....which is another reason there are so many running.....like a dragnet!

Hanson stated, “But what they don’t understand is that people are watching this circus, and they’re shocked at what they’re hearing, whether it’s infanticide as legal abortion or reparations or the New Green Deal and outlawing internal combustion engines in 12 years or a wealth tax on previously taxed income that’s now somebody’s private property or Medicare for everybody, breaking the old idea you pay in when you’re younger so you can receive it when you’re older, or cancellation of all student debt, as if somebody who’s driving a truck at 18 is supposed to pay for some social justice warrior who’s 26 and taking six years of classes and borrowing for his tuition.”

VDH is in fine form in this one. Well worth the full read, and thanks for posting.

That's because the Bushes, Doles, and Romneys look and act like the Monopoly Man.

Along comes Trump, and he gets kicked around by the snooty DC crowd. Any black man who has been "watched" in a fancy store can relate.

Really, all the rats can do at this point to have a hope of wining in 2020 is to tank the economy.

Hanson shared, “A woman I know very well — I’ve known her my whole life — she tells me that she can’t get her dialysis timely because people have flooded the border. They’re coming to our community … and the dialysis clinics are flooded.”

Which is funny, because I know someone who has “a husband” from desert town in Mexico and she regularly visits him.

No big deal?

Well, she can visit him and keep her regularly scheduled visits for dialysis, I guess, since the U.S. givernment will pay for it under her givernment benefits....

Yeah, I agree. I think their chances of that are very slim though. Thank heaven.
