President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

When I read all of this Farrakhan stuff, I feel like I accidentally skipped four chapters in a book. When has he been relevant in the past 20 years and who in power has said one word of praise?

 

He has shown up in pictures with Democrats. That's it. That's the entire argument for him being relevant.

 

The right was pissed when he shared the stage with Clinton and Obama at Aretha Franklin's funeral

 

Anyone have a recording or transcript of Farrakhan’s speech at Morgan State in Baltimore a couple of years ago? Was probably after Freddie Gray.

Maybe before T and TDS.

Heard it was rather bad in lots of ways, not just anti-Semite.

 

I'm guessing that's Linda Sarsour, who IIRC, was already portrayed as something of a liability because of some unsavory stances or connections related to her Muslim faith.

Tommie Smith and John Carlos are unsurprised.

 

He was hanging out with Bill Clinton...that is not just some of Democrat.

But, seriously, I am not going to tell you, a person of the Jewish faith, what you need to consider anti-senitism. That would be like me telling a woman what she needs to consider sexual harrassment, or an African-American, what they should consider racism.

 

Wonder how the times will update this story:

In light of this:

Obama was there?

 

My mistake
He was not

 

So that’s two incel attacks in 2018? And four right-wing attacks in a couple of weeks?
