What do you think of Trump’s first 3 years in office?  Do you still hold the same view of him ?? Do you think Biden would do a better job than Trump?? These are questions that need to be asked. I’m sure everyone heard the recent comment by Joe Biden, “ you ain’t black”, I want to ask a question when it comes to black people why is it that they like to solicit the help of entertainers, it is almost as if they believe that entertainers speak for black people.  They pretend they are comfortable with black people and then they end up making a fool of themselves.

Fun Fact, I have never heard Trump change his accent when he is around black people, we just heard Joe Biden do it, we have seen Barack Obama do it, we have seen Hillary Clinton do it. They call it “ coming down to our level”

The interesting thing about Trump, he has always been around Black entertainers, even when he was a businessman before he became a politician

Maybe that is why he signed into law, “The Music Modernization ACT. ( doing something to help the music industry) Even our first black president who is supposed to have “soul” didn’t do it, and we all know black entertainers are usually the ones who get the short end of the stick.  Black people we talk about culture and music, yet our very first black president did not do anything to protect black music.

Black people complain about systematic racism now let us see where our vice president, for 8 years to the first black president stands on issues that concern black people.

Let me start by one of the hottest topics today, reparations, what does Joe Biden think of reparations, this is what he said  “I do not buy the concept,  ‘We have suppressed the black man for 300 years and the white man is now far ahead in the race for everything our society offers. In order to even the score, we must now give the black man a head start, or even hold the white man back, to even the race. I don’t buy that. He added, “I don’t feel responsible for the sins of my father and grandfather. I feel responsible for what the situation is today, for the sins of my own generation. And I’ll be damned if I feel responsible to pay for what happened 300 years ago.”

Well, it couldn’t be more clear, he doesn’t support it !!!!

What does he think when it comes to black people?? “I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that’s a storybook, man.”  almost as if he has never seen an educated black man before at the same time was against the nomination of Clarence Thomas.

The most racist bill against young black men was ( in my opinion) the 94 crime bill which was co-written by Joe Biden, even Bill Clinton had to apologize for it.

The funny thing is that these entertainers had more in common with Trump than any Democrat especially when they even learned about business from him

KRS-One

This is what KRS-One said sometime back, ( an old school rapper)  “Trump is a friend of Hip hop, back in the day I was the richest nigga in my hood, they called me Donald Trump”

 

Another one is Russell Simmons, who was his mentor ??? yep you guessed it, Donald Trump,  he complimented Donald Trump by affectionately calling him “Nigga” Trump, however, said this is the worse thing anyone has ever said to him, and he asked “why would you say a thing like that” Simmons, however, said to him, the greatest thing he could ever say about anybody.

Trump taught Simmons a lot about business, he said himself, “maybe too much”

You know it is interesting that even when he was a businessman, he helped and mentored black people, for those who don’t know, the most successful artist today were directly or indirectly influenced by Russell Simmons, Sean Combs, AKA P Diddy said so himself, followed by Sean Carter, also known as Jay Z. Biden is looking more racist to me.

According to Mr. Joe Biden, he voted to extend the voting rights act 25 more years,  interesting isn’t’ it … and no one is asking him why isn’t the voting rights act permanent, Oh better still no one asked the first black president, why the voting rights act isn’t permanent, a few things caught the attention of people, especially about that comment  “ you ain’t black”, for those who don’t know the 15th amendment wasn’ t enough the voting rights act sealed the deal,  and yet it is always temporary. He is telling you and me that we as black people cannot have a permanent right to vote, it should be kept temporary!!.

I’m not telling anyone how to vote, these stories have to be told !!
