Because he’s African-American.
Like I used to tell my Negro troopies when they insisted they we “Affican ‘Merican”
“At least I’ve BEEN to Africa!”
Trump is no golden calf here or anywhere. Everyone knows he’s not at all perfect. He is appreciated because he is a maryr in the way he is treated with his crime being heresy against high Leftist dogma and the especially that he will not let the swamp make him a swamp creature like them. We see how this gets him treated and yet he dies not back down. So he is appreciated as a kind of hero.
I thought it was funnier than all get out!
I daresay he also knows more what it is like to be racially targeted than most blacks in the US.
Never-Trumpers.
The issue with Trump is that since his loss, he seems more unhinged. His entire modus operandi seems to be revenge and getting even.
I understand that and feel he did get cheated, but he needs to let it go. He is starting to sound like the Democrats over Jan 6. There is nothing there that is actionable, let it go.
Trump's endorsements this cycle are another problem. Trump made poor staff picks and endorsements his first time and he is making even worse endorsements this time. Endorsing Oz in my Pennsylvania and heartily endorsing McCarthy for Speaker is a path I cannot support.
Don't give me nonsense about 4D chess. Trump has multiple horrible endorsements that will not drain the swamp nor have his back should he be re-elected.
I will probably vote for Trump if he wins the nomination, but I really am having second thoughts about supporting him when we do have better candidates like DeSantis or Rand Paul.
You passive/aggressive anti Trump are fools. FOAD.
Because Elon IS an african american by the definition of hyphenated identity.
Erik it is YOU that is unhinged. FOAD
While being factually correct, DeSantis did it because he knew it would annoy the Democrats. He’s in full campaign mode.
The very simple fact is that Musk is from Africa, and is an American, hence “African-American.” Tan or other, he qualifies. Just as people who live on Whidby Island in WA are technically “Pacific Islanders.” Just as my kids, the product of me (a white Jewish guy born in NY) and my glow-in-the-dark white, Jewish wife (born and raised in Mexico) are “Hispanic.”
The Left wants to play stupid games, they’ll get stupid prizes…with a bonus for pissing the off.
Really? I'm not calling people names because I disagree with them. You behave more like the left with these attacks.
Didn’t Tim Tebow marry an African?
“John Kerry’s wife, Teresa Heinz, is another celebrity White-African.”
Actually .. .
She’s half Portuguese, Iberian Peninsula. Former Moor & Muslim lands.
So, not only African American, but maybe be another White Hispanic too.
Check both boxes.
The 4d chess stuff is mostly pushed by pranksters on 4chan using the “Q-anon” template starting with “Trust Trump’s plan...”. Sadly we have some here that think there is a real insider who is being sincere code named “Q-anon”.
is it primary season already?
Ahhh yes.......
Thanks for your very informative post.
I get it now.
