Black leaders, DNC blast Trump for ‘racist’ comments
The Hill ^ | 02/24/2024

Posted on 02/24/2024 12:40:03 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Black leaders are condemning former President Trump’s recent comments about Black voters as “racist.”

Speaking at the Black Conservative Federation (BCF) annual gala in South Carolina on Friday, Trump said his legal woes have earned him the support of Black voters around the country.

“I got indicted for nothing, for something that is nothing,” Trump told the crowd. “And a lot of people said that’s why the Black people like me, because they have been hurt so badly and discriminated against, and they actually viewed me as I’m being discriminated against. It’s been pretty amazing but possibly, maybe, there’s something there.”

The former president added that Black Americans also “embraced” his mugshot and that he knows Black people because they built his buildings.

What he said was quite complimentary to the black community.

Larry Elder said yesterday the average annual income for black workers has gone down $2,000 per person due to the impact of non-citizen immigrants working. Downward wage pressure from the availability of illegal labor.

And he said a considerable amount of funding that used to go to low income or homeless black citizens is now being diverted to pay for illegals.

Elder said the word is getting around that people will stay home rather than vote Dem——not vote GOP but stay home.

And blacks wonder why every other ethnic group in America ridicules and laughs at them with their perpetual victimhood mentality!

This "Victimhood" is exclusive territory of the blacks, and no matter what they do to "whitey", you can't claim it. Trump and his advisors should've known this.

The black ‘leaders’ chanted, “If you support Trump, you ain’t black!” from the middle of the cotton field on the liberal plantation.

No matter what a White person does or says, they play the race card. Go put on some Big Boy pants and quit playing the victim all the time. You’ve worn that and the race card out.

I’m so sick and tired of these whiney assed “black” leaders. Who the hell made “them” leaders?

I suggest this group put up or shut up!! They should LEAD the Blaxit revolution and just GTFO!!!

Multiple stories about a “Blaxit” back the African homeland. Are these “leaders” strong and brave enough to LEAD this movement?

NO, there too much $$$ to be made kissing Democrat ass!!!

A quote from Booker T. Washington that needs to be used often against the race hustlers of the Democrat party:

There is a certain class of race problem-solvers who don’t want the patient to get well, because as long as the disease holds out they have not only an easy means of making a living, but also an easy medium through which to make themselves prominent before the public.

To say Trump’s statement is racist is pure BS. Just goes to show how fraud accusers in the NAACP an BLM will say anything that their masters direct.

Might want to spellcheck your tagline. Too many ‘F’s in globalism.

The Dems should have checked with LaHood before responding - LOTS of blacks identify with Trump (rightly or wrongly) regarding targeted prosecution.

“This might come as news to Trump, but pushing tired tropes, wannabe Jordans, and mugshot t-shirts isn’t going to win over black voters who suffered through record high unemployment and skyrocketing uninsured rates under his leadership,” Sarafina Chitika, the DNC’s national press secretary, said in a statement.

Hey Sarafina, under Trump, blacks enjoyed the lowest unemployment rate in history. Are blacks in the labor force better off under Biden, now that they have to compete with zillions of illegal aliens?

As long as hard work, scholarship, goal-setting and punctuality are disparaged as "acting white," their perpetual victimhood will endure.
