Sharpton turned MLKs dream into a nightmare a long time ago.

“Trump is turning Dr. King’s dream into a nightmare.”

The race hustling poverty pimp is fearful he will lose his gravy train.
Keeping blacks fearful and dependent is his sickening goal.

But its a new day and the chains are coming off; hallelujah!!

“Unemployment among black workers is at its lowest since at least the early 1970s, when the government began tracking the data.”

The “progressive” definition of “progress” is abject destruction. What losers.

Nightmare? Black Lives Matter marching and chanting, “Pigs in a blanket, fry ‘em like bacon”, has become the nightmare of the dream that MLK once had. The ideal of being a colorblind country has gone by the wayside, abandoned by the “liberals” everywhere. Their “Black Liberation” theology sounds suspiciously like they may have absorbed a number of elements of Islam, and not the good elements, either.

Socialism is NOT the salvation of the American black population, just as it has never been the salvation of any people in the world where it was adopted and soon enforced with an iron hand, as it must be if continuity is expected. Otherwise it breaks down and the society loses its cohesiveness altogether, reverting to tribal groups, which are notorious for a total lack of individual liberty and economic advancement.

Sharpton is a racist.

Yes, by any measure. Most of the media and the Democrat Party are racist too, and they can't even see or understand why. Discrimination on the basis of male gender and white ethnicity is completely expected in our time to combat what they call "racism". They are deaf and blind, but they certainly aren't mute.

Yep, just the other day I saw Donald Trump put an old black lady in a headlock and force her to the back of the bus. Shameful.

The only thing Trump has changed is more jobs, higher wages, and good jobs coming back to the USA. MAGA!

Saw Dr. Alveda King this morning.

She was GREAT!

I guess that means she can’t be a black leader anymore??!!

I do believe the media is doing so much damage to what they are trying to do... they are trying to remove him or make us hate him.. and they are doing the opposite. The anger out here can be vented in the voting booth and he’ll be reelected for another 4 years. They think we are not enough in number to do this?! We did it in 2016... and I don’t think their rhetoric has done anything but made us more determined to keep the only hope we have.. in office!

“...Sharpton is a racist....”

Yeah, it is how he acquires money. A first class gutter crawler. Black America should be reminded that it was the DEMOCRATS that supported slavery. And maintaining their ‘victim status’ is essential to RAT votes. Tammany Hall never died.

You missed the evil Trumpster, kicking her off the bus via the back door.

When MLK was alive they had higher employment, education, home ownership, business ownership, marriage rates and stronger extended families. LBJ and the DNC destroyed the black family.

RE:”.....flirting with nuclear disaster, .....
Almost all of these maneuvers will directly impact communities of color; often, these types of measures impact communities of color the most”

‘Nuclear disaster’ impacts communities of color the most ???
