These people are insane.

Yep, voluntary kneeling by millionaire entertainers is totally equivalent to 1800's forced cotton picking. uhhh hmmmm, insanity.

This poor girl is very grateful to Chris Upton for her new reputation as a rhetorical genius!

Lol. I doubt there are many blacks alive that have actually worked in a cotton field. However, I have actually hand picked cotton for money when I was young and I didn’t have a choice either. My mom and dad told me to do it so I did. It paid 1$ per 100 lbs so I made a few dollars every day. Hard work but all work is hard if you do it the best you can.

SHARPTON: "..he wants us to be kneeling in the cotton fields again." "

ME: Today we have industrial cotton harvesters that are far less costly and efficient, so clearly the president is not trying to re-establish slavery to make blacks pick cotton. Why don't you try again, Al?"

We must start growing brown cotton because white cotton is racist.

Progressives Want Blacks Kneeling in the Cotton Fields Again

And that is the absolute, undeniable truth. Period. Full stop.

If you open a package of cotton balls, do you have to throw the first one away?

Trump respects people who work with their hands. Al Sharpton doesn’t. Why? Because Sharpton has a slave mentality. Work is for slaves.

Alexis de Tocqueville noticed the very different cultures of the north and the south. In the north, everybody worked. It was a middle-class, capitalist society, in which work and entrepreneurship were embraced. True, some people made more than others. Inequality and good and bad luck were all part of it.

In the south, work was disdained. Work was for slaves. This corrupted owners as well as those who were owned.

In addition to this different attitude toward work, there was a different attitude to tolerance and respect. In the north, anyone who put food on the table was the equal of anybody else. This is reflected in the poem The Village Blacksmith. “And looks the whole world in the face, For he owes not any man.” Because all relations were between free people, you had to respect your suppliers and customers, employers and employees, landlords and tenants, creditors and borrowers, even if you disagreed with them.

In contrast, in the south, intolerance, belligerence and arrogance characterized slave-owners.

Now, let’s think about today. Which party disrespects work and the working man, and which party is arrogant and self-righteous?

These twits would get much more if they took their kneeling time in church.

The who? Whom does the 'Black' Caucus represent?

Why, "our people," of course...

I want to thank God for giving us the opportunity to wake up this morning and speak on behalf of our people, you know...

I no longer see that the problems of "his people" are my concern or responsibility.
