Left-Wing Media Laud Congressional Black Caucus Members Who Didn’t Applaud Trump

What context? Trump is a lying race baiting sack of crap taking credit for something he had nothing to do with. They didn't fall for his tripe. Don't confuse them with the clowns at Trump rallies with their red "Make American Great Again!" hats cheerleading for a man who wouldn't even piss on them if they were on fire.

Vulgar abuse is always useful. It enables one to ignore future posts from the spewer in the certainty that they will contain nothing of interest.

See this is the problem.

Regardless of whose policies helped bring about these historic lows, regardless when it started, regardless who takes credit for it....the fact that these people did not applaud the achievement -- that black unemployment is at the lowest point in recorded history -- really has to make one wonder WTF is wrong with them.

Even if they were to hold a press conference afterward to denounce any involvement Trump had in the bringing about of this historic achievement. They should be applauding the fact that the unemployment rate for blacks IS at a historic low.

It really goes to show that the CBC and their Kunta Kinta rags ain't ****...

Breitbart sometimes offers factual information not found in the highly partisan MSM. If you wish to contest any facts you are always free to do so. It is of course facts about the real world which should shape ones politics, not prejudice.

If that's the case, you must ignore everything Donald Trump says, considering that he engages in "vulgar abuse" on a regular basis.

It's your opinion, and it misses the whole point of what my OP was about. Or actually, it's exemplary of what my OP was about. You can and should applaud the achievement while having your opinions about the causes or who takes credit. You are obviously standing in solidarity with the CBC. As it is, I've said what I have to say about them and their types.

So, just curious... Was there actually a discussion you were looking for in this thread, or did you just need to vent. Serious question, given your desperate and played out zingers aimed at everyone who's opinion differed from yours. Just trying to decide whether to make an attempt at an explanation, or if I should give you a hug and let you work it out...

By way of a nutshell explanation, though, I'm guessing the reason the CBC did not stand for Trump's speech, even as it pertained to their community, would have something to do with the fact that they've probably just didn't care to get out of their seats for one more white guy taking credit for the work of a black guy. :)

Hug offer still stands, though...

That's funny. Clearly you missed the entire point of the OP.

But thanks for your response.

Is there a left wing bias in the media? Hell yes!

I don't prescribe to Brietbart to prove such a thing. Here let me show you a series of articles covered by USA Today over the mayor of Nashville. She was caught in an extramarital affair as well as a series of questionable behaviors covered by the USA Today.

NOWHERE in their articles does it recognize Megan Barry, mayor as a DEMOCRAT. NOWHERE!

But I would bet you a hundred right now if dear ole Megan Barry was a Republican, you wouldn't have to go look and search to find that information because in the very first line of the very first paragraph of the story a bolded R would be behind her name.

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news...-admits-extramarital-relationship/1085057001/

You see in the world of Democrats whether it be the Black Caucus or a mayor of a major city, the MSM has their back.

You can't really flock to Fox News then claim you really want fact based non-biased reporting. Nobody buys it.

Because they don't like the guy? Because they don't believe for one second that he's "very proud" of those numbers? Because they believe that he didn't do one thing to actively improve that number or even cares about black unemployment?

Yep. Exactly. Because of their hatred for the man. Because of their prejudices. Because of their ill conceived notions, they refused to celebrate the fact that the number of people in the black community, their community who are unemployed is at a historic all time low.

As I explicitly stated in my OP. Regardless of what policy or whom takes credit, the achievement in and of itself deserves a round of applause. If and when they were questioned about it, or even if they took preemptive action to hold a press conference directly after the event, they could have articulated as much.


But, you know, I suppose....they'd probably be happier with more of their people living off welfare, slangin and gang banging, killing each other in the streets....Makes it easier to wallow in their victimhood and blame the white man for their poor life choices, don't it? Yep, nothing brings in them votes like hatin' on the White Man for the Unthinking Left, and I do mean nothing...

Where in Sam Hill in my post was FOX news mentioned? NOWHERE! My link came from USA Today. I get my news from several different resources. You ought to try it sometime.

Obama is the cause of this, not Trump. The trend started there.

Odd thing to assert, given that your OP was essentially you admitting to ignorance of what you're trying to hold forth on.

You get that kind of response when regressives are involved.

He is saying that Trump is a low life POS racist.
So try and keep up.
 
Considering those stats have nothing to do with Trump, I can see why

I think it's more likely the OP missed the entire point of why folks were sitting down.

A wack-a-doo right wing political porn cite calls out the media.... if you want a serious discussion, you will have to do better than this.....

They did not applaud because Trump is trying to claim credit for it. Meanwhile, the presumption of Trump's not being racist has been erased by his numerous and consistent insensitive actions.

The idea of his claiming credit for low unemployment of blacks is a bit like him claiming credit for no fatal air crashes.

Fact check: Trump wrongly claims credit for lack of commercial airline crash deaths - Chicago Tribune

If Trump wants credit for any data point happening on his watch, even when he had little to with it, then its time to call him out for taking us to the highest national debt ever......

Sorry, Brietbart is political porn. Stay away if you want any credibility. If you don't, you'll go blind.

I believe what he is saying is unlike some Trumpers (white folks) they are smart enough to not read breitbart and do believe the video tape of President Trump waffling on Charlottesville. Taking credit for the efforts of others is soooo Trump and all but some of his fluffers are done with it... GOT it!!!! :doh

My hypocrisy meter is pegged. When Obama in his SOTU spoke about infrastructure needs, the Republcians sat on their hands. Now, Trump spoke about infrastructure needs and the same people go wild.

But what is the point of this thread? Are we now required to bestow praise onto Trump for merely being president when black UE falls, which has been happening since 2011, when Trump had nothing to do with it?
