Congresswoman Ilhan Omar responded Thursday to “send her back” chants that erupted at one of President Donald Trump’s rallies by posting a photo of herself and Speaker Nancy Pelosi on a visit to Africa. “They said ‘send her back’ but Speaker [Pelosi] didn’t just make arrangement to send me back, she went back with me,” Omar wrote in her Instagram and Twitter posts. The pair are visiting Ghana as part of a Congressional trip to the African continent this week to commemorate the American slave trade’s 400th anniversary.

He reported on the bad news… Is it your contention that alerting the public to the horrid conditions in parts of Baltimore, as a result of their failed leadership, is racist just because the people hardest hit are black and their representative is also black? I think the tweet involved two parts... more bad news of crime coming out of Baltimore, this time affecting their representative, and these things are to be expected until their leadership makes real change.

Not record jobs for blacks racism. Not calling out black politicians for abandoning their district to virtue signal about the border racism.

Really bad news! The Baltimore house of Elijah Cummings was robbed. Too bad!

I stand by my posts.

steddyeddy wrote: » MM I stated previously that in the American government research I work on we're told that any press release should be given at the level that a Trump supporter can understand. The reason being that Trump supporters fail to understand logic. Now I don't want you guys to feel sensitive about this but your post exemplifies that/ Let's follow the logic of your posts. You're concerned with real racism like no "blacks allowed", you know Trump engaged in this definition of real racism, yet you believe Trump's not a racist, Trump can't be racist because he has black supporters and finally Al Sharpton is racist even though he has white supporters? Hopefully that explains my attitudes towards the logic of Trump supporters MM.

What I feel the user was talking about was about how there are lots of African Americans who like Trump and who the media largely ignore as it doesn't fit the narrative they like to peddle. Those would be the black folk Bette Midler dismissively referred to as "Blackground" A few examples:https://twitter.com/TheOfficerTatum/status/1150771394617102336https://twitter.com/BCMAmerica/status/1156728856755298304 This black guy was even approached by a brazen white liberal who suggested he looked dumb cause he was wearing a MAGA hat:https://twitter.com/DavidJHarrisJr/status/1150483352597778433

Overheal wrote: » With the breaking news that Will Hurd is retiring from the House of Representatives, who was very critical of Trumps racist remarks, that leaves the GOP with one last African American on the Hill: Senator Tim Scott, and I can attest as his constituent he is not a Trump sycophant. So this begs the question: who are these plenty of African Americans you are referring to?
