American Politics

[Elvis 2008]

SCOTUS - It would painfully seem, that our (well some Repubs and most Dems anyways) worst concerns w/r to SCOTUS is being realized.

As some have long speculated, the current incarnation of SCOTUS, is nothing more than just another conservative, right-wing political arm of the Republican Party. At this point they are no better than the party's propaganda machine over at FOXY Muse.

It is clear now, judging by the last several cases, briefs and oral arguments, brought before SCOTUS, that their blatant and obvious biases, rulings and lines of questioning, tilt towards the belief that, their conservative party policy goals, are being placed before everything, including...DEMOCRACY. And a "blind", fair and impartial interpretation of the law, is nothing more than lip service.

If justice is blind, then this version of SCOTUS, is obviously "cheating" and seeing only out of ONE EYE, the one on the "right".

Boo hoo, Boo hoo! The Democratic party, the party of trial lawyers, the party trying to win the election in the court room is not getting their way. The idiot partisan appeals court in DC made one of the most boneheaded rulings in recent times and SCOTUS has stopped them. You are just so obsessed with getting Trump you are too stupid to see this goes way beyond him.

From the hearing:

In one of the many hypotheticals the liberals tossed at Trump's attorney, Kagan asked what would happen if a president ordered the military to stage a coup. Could that be prosecuted under Trump's theory?

"If there's no threat of criminal prosecution, what prevents the president from just doing whatever he wants?" Jackson said. "I'm trying to understand what the disincentive is from turning the Oval Office into the seat of criminal activity in this country. "

These are two great questions from liberal Democratic judges. SCOTUS is doing its job untangle the politics from the idiotic DC ruling. I am complimenting Dems here.

Alito went as far as to suggest that denying ex-presidents immunity would discourage peaceful transfers of power, because outgoing presidents who lost hotly contested elections would not want to depart peacefully if they were concerned they'd be prosecuted by their political rival.

To those of us with a brain, this is a valid concern and yet to douches like you Spidy who only care about your SS check, it is blasphemy. Alito is Fox news watching, biased pond scum when he is asking a good question and doing his fucking job.

An attorney offers this assessment of the questioning.

I listened to the entire argument. The Court will reject Trump's absolute immunity argument. Roberts, Kavanaugh, and Barrett crapped all over that idea.

But the Justices don't like the DC Circuit approach. There is a principle of limited immunity for official acts obviously, never applied in the Presidential context but applied to protect officials from criminal suits involving allegations of violations of citizens' constitutional rights. Kavanaugh and Roberts supporting him, seem inclined to apply that principle here. (Barrett seemed like she was torn as to whether to do that or join the liberals.). That will require a preliminary fact-based hearing to determine which acts were "official" and deserve limited immunity and which acts are private and get no immunity. I feel pretty confident that's what will happen here. Barrett would be the sixth vote. Gorsuch, Alito, and Thomas might go for absolute immunity, but that doesn't matter, as the deciding votes determine the remedy.

So, that's what's going to happen. This means no trial before the election. But Judge Tanya Churkin, who controls her own calendar, will follow the SC's mandate and conduct a fact-based preliminary hearing to determine which acts were official and which were private.

Trump did not get everything he wanted, but he did get the most that could be realistically expected.

The fact finding mission and subsequent delays men there will be no more trials before the election.

So yeah, the Democratic members of SCOTUS will vote against Trump, there is no reason for them not to, but they know presidents need some degree of immunity. Quite frankly, seeing how this was always about preventing Trump from being elected, there will probably be no new lawsuits.

And the whole Democratic lawfare strategy has blown up in the face of Democrats. In reality, not only is SCOTUS not corrupt, they seem to be the only court room that is not ridiculously partisan. Like I have said before, we do not have a DOJ. We have a DDOJ, a Democratic Department of Justice.

[Elvis 2008]

Just love the enthusiasm, bluster and rant!

But please explain this!

So AGAIN, Elvis 2008, if Trump really does have the "raising" Black vote, then explain to me, why is it that Trump and Repubs, spend an enormous amount of effort, time and money, in a myriad of attempts around the country, to service mass purges of Blacks from of voter rolls, or suppressing the black votes on voter lists, or disproportionately removing drop-boxes and ballot-boxes, primarily in black neighborhoods, in swing states?

And why call out ONLY black and brown neighborhoods and people for voter fraud and election fraud, in said swing states?

Yeah, funny, the heads of Black Lives Matter do not live in predominantly black neighborhoods so they have no issues with voting as easily as white people.

As for why the restrictions, you know damned well why. Because that is where the cheating is!

Google has done a pretty good job of wiping out what happened in 2020 as has duckduckgo, but it is still there if you look hard enough. https://rumble.com/vbvwfd-ep.-32-ele...am-nov.-4.html.

You can go the 17 minute mark on this video and see for yourself. It is amazing how black voters were more excited to vote for Biden than Obama but only in swing states. Boy the blacks turned out in droves in Milwaukee, Detroit, Atlanta, Phoenix, and Nevada, but for some reason, they had below average turnout in other places. Gee, I wonder why.

And then there were 100,000 ballots miraculously where the only person voted for was Joe Biden. That only happened in contested states but in uncontested states, and Biden won by 44,000 votes in Georgia, Arizona, and Wisconsin, which separated him from Trump in the Electoral College.

Democrats got away with this crap in 2020 but it is going to be MUCH harder in 2024 to cheat. That is why you have to do this lawfare bullshit.

If justice is blind, then this version of SCOTUS, is obviously "cheating" and seeing only out of ONE EYE, the one on the "right".

I was soooo looking forward to the 6 genius Repub-appointed Justices to rule that President Joe Biden has total immunity from criminal prosecution if he orders the assassination of all 6 of the genius Repub-appointed Justicies just for the hell of it tomorrow as long as he "alleges" that he did so pursuant to his official presidential duties. LOL.

Alas, it appears they will instead comply with Trump's desperate need to delay delay delay all of his criminal trials by kicking that decision down the road for someone else to make.

But, absolutely, the line of questioning by those 6 genius Repub-appointed Justices strongly suggests they have totally bought the loony Trump / QAnon MAGA premise that Trump gathering and inciting a violent cop-killing mob of insurrectionists to storm the Capitol, search out his VP to publicly hang him, shoot or kidnap the Speaker of the House, overturn a free and fair election and overthrow American democracy while Trump sat on his fat ass for 3 hours doing nothing except enjoying the show and praising them for their loyalty to him was not the historically dangerous and unique event to be fretting over.

Oh no.

Of course, according to their loony America-hating QAnon MAGA way of thinking, it is the wheels of justice daring to turn toward Trump for perpetrating that outrageously traitorous crime against America that is the really annoying thing about all of this. LOL.

[Spidy]

So wait, this was not about Fox News, SAS, or even me. It was about a black man who saw those stories and asked around to verify what was going on and found out that the polls were right, and he relayed to the world all that he heard.

And what do you call two douches like yourself Spidy and Tooms who tune out what a black person says, call him a knucklehead, a Foxy want to be, just prominent in the sports world, and yet lecture everyone on the "black experience"? Oh, yeah, you two douches know all about racism because you old farts were the ones practicing it.
...

The real crime SAS committed is he told you something that you did not want to hear AKA the truth. Oh yeah, I forgot. All the polls are wrong because you douches say they are.

Just love the enthusiasm, bluster and rant!

But please explain this!

Why do ALL that, if the Black VOTE is in the proverbial BAG? (Yeah, not to be confused with your usage of "D-BAG"...kkkk!)

So why do Repubs, fear the BLACK VOTE?

[EihTooms]

Yeah, you and Thailand Tooms know all about the "black experience" living in Thailand and God knows whatever. Yeah, you are so open minded you called a black man a numbskull because he told you what you did not want to hear. Racist much?

And you did not listen to a fucking word of what he said. This is what he referenced:

Chicago Tribune with the headline: This time Trump seems to be making black voter inroads. Why?

https://www.pressherald.com/2024/03/...voter-inroads/

The Washington Post: Voters of color are shifting right. Are Democrats doomed?

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opini...on-republican/

https://www.wsj.com/politics/electio...-poll-a7d9da22

So wait, this was not about Fox News, SAS, or even me. It was about a black man who saw those stories and asked around to verify what was going on and found out that the polls were right, and he relayed to the world all that he heard.

And what do you call two douches like yourself Spidy and Tooms who tune out what a black person says, call him a knucklehead, a Foxy want to be, just prominent in the sports world, and yet lecture everyone on the "black experience"? Oh, yeah, you two douches know all about racism because you old farts were the ones practicing it.

In fact one of the memes on Twitter was a black man holding a whip that was labeled NAACP and the black man being whipped was labeled blacks who vote Republican. Or Biden saying, if you do not vote for me, you are not black. Hmmm.

To recount what SAS Smith said: "As much as people may have been abhorred by Donald Trump's statement weeks ago, talking about how he's hearing that Black folks find him relatable because of what he is going through is similar to what Black Americans have gone through, he wasn't lying; he was telling the truth. ".

And this is the response of the Democratic former Sportscenter host and demagogue Keith Olbermann, "So why is today's ESPN letting Smith do it? Why is he campaigning for Trump on Fox News? ESPN must make him choose between advocating for a despot or keeping his job saying nothing particularly relevant about sports-not both. And I'd insist on the same either / or if he were campaigning for Biden. ".

If SAS were campaigning for Biden, a douche like Olbermann wouldn't say shit and everyone knows it.

This is not being a Fox dupe. You and Tooms displayed classic Democratic douche motives as does Olbermann who goes out and fucking lies about SAS supporting Trump. Yeah, this is douchery at its finest: Lie and attack anyone who does not toe the Democratic party line even if that line is false and censor and fire anyone who does not toe the line.

The real crime SAS committed is he told you something that you did not want to hear AKA the truth. Oh yeah, I forgot. All the polls are wrong because you douches say they are.

The first link you posted from the Portland Press Herald would be a great link to send to SAS along with a strong recommendation that he share it with every young Black man he meets. You could also strongly recommend he share all of the important details of it with his Fux News sweet gig hosts and audience.

That is the article that reminds us of Trump's history of anti Black discrimination lawsuits, his still unwavering insistence that 5 Black men who were fully exonerated of the crime he exploited for his own celebrity and White Nationalist credentials be publicly executed or rot in prison the rest of their lives and, oh yeah, the Birther Scam he perpetuated for that same celebrity, White Nationalist credentials and Republican Party credentials purpose, claiming / lying that he had hired some investigators to research Obama's birth certificate records in Hawaii and were "finding some very interesting things. ".

Now, I happen to know all about that critically important history of Donald Trump's lifelong quest for celebrity and White Nationalist credentials by stepping on Black Americans whenever and wherever he could.

But it is obvious that Stephen A. Smith does not "know enough" about Trump to make up his mind who he will endorse and vote for this year. As does so many young Black men in America today.

And now that YOU know all about it, having heard and read about it from me and Clarence Page in the link you posted here but most definitely never heard it from SAS or anyone he is likely to find himself chatting with on Fux News, it really should be your mission in life to get that info to SAS, Fux News and as many young Black men as you come in contact with on a daily basis.

I mean, since you obviously care so much about the truth, the plight of Black Americans and all that.

I would do it myself. But rumor has it that neither mail nor email nor cyberspace in general can make a connection between Black men or anyone else in the USA and Bangkok Thailand and that only people who live right next door to each other can share and know these things.

Despite the fact that I know and knew these things yet SAS, Fux News, you and a whole bunch of young Black men in America didn't. Amazing, huh.

[Elvis 2008]

Influence..sure if you're looking to talk sports or make a sports bet on the Lakers. Politics not so much! The backlash, is for making dumbass comments and comparisons, to the lived black experience, when he should know better.

Next you're gonna tell me Kanye West, has enormous political influence, in the black community (....kkkk!)

Black voters, VOTE for Dems to WIN, with an historic avg. 82%-86% certainty. Repubs should circle-back to me, when this changes.

Elvis 2008, as a gullible FOXY Muse watcher and in true Republican fashion, you're mistakenly taking his "numbskull comments" of equating Trump trials with the lived "black experience" (which EihTooms and I have previously highlighted)

Yeah, you and Thailand Tooms know all about the "black experience" living in Thailand and God knows whatever. Yeah, you are so open minded you called a black man a numbskull because he told you what you did not want to hear. Racist much?

USGOV hostile to crypto

https://www.coindesk.com/policy/2024...tablecoin-law/

It is bad law. Stifles innovation, liquidity and movement of capital in the markets.

Elements in the USGOV are afraid. Because crypto is not reliant on any of the favorite idiots everyone like to talk about on both side of aisle up in here.

[Spidy]

Unless SAS wants more Great Repub Depressions, Great Repub Recessions and Massive Repub Jobs Destruction for America, those are dumb things to say when he could use his position and status to say something more truthful and helpful to the country instead.

SAS either seriously not realizing how any vaguely less than supportive comment about Biden or pretending not to know that Fux News as well as every MSM pundit and pro Repub "Bothsider" will most definitely twist and spin it as a Big Win With Minorities for Trump and the Repub Party demonstrates a clumsy, careless and dangerous level of naivety that is at least bordering cheek-to-cheek with being a clueless numbskull.

It was the same with Duane The Rock Johnson publicly stating that he has decided not to endorse Biden or any other candidate this time around. How much of a clueless numbskull or, as dangerous, clumsy naive child would he have to be not to know every Fux News and MSM pro Repub "Bothsider" was going to twist and spin that as him "regretting having endorsed Biden in 2020 because Biden has divided the country so much"? Which is not what Johnson said at all.

Good lord, hasn't he, SAS and others been paying attention to how the only thing The Repub Party of Great Depressions, Great Recessions and Massive Jobs Destruction has to run and win on is twisting and spinning the tiniest gaffe or clumsy, careless vague allusion to some impossibly over exaggerated "America destroying" sucker social issue delivered by one or another clueless numbskull useful idiot who blathers some idiocy right into their waiting traps?

LOL.

SAS is primarily a sports journalist and has made a name for himself in the sports world as sports pundit and critic. Basically, he's an entertainer. Same thing with Duane The Rock Johnson, as you already know, he's an actor, movie star and pro-wrestler. Again, basically an entertainer.

And while both of these gentlemen, have done a lot of good for their respective communities (HBCs, charities, underprivileged kids programs...etc), their numbskull/knuckle headed comments, while clumsy and careless, shouldn't be given too much credence (as IMHO it's not warranted). These insignificant celebrity flare-ups, carry very little weight in the political arena and at the ballot-box when it actually comes time to vote.

Repubs, can have all knuckle headed celebrity gaffes, if they feel it will translate to votes. President Joe Biden, thank god, is focused on the votes of hardworking American Laborers and NABTU workers that know, "He [TRUMP] was one of the worst clients we ever had, because he rarely kept his word and it was a fight to get him to pay us back". --NABTU President Sean McGarvey

In the case of SAS, as you've stated, he should know better. But FOXY Muse, have also had a lifetime of twisting almost everything in their sights, to suit their right-wing agenda/narrative. That is literally their fucking shtick!

Point and case, as just the other day, a new version of the game SCRAMBLE was released and reported as being "easier" and "more inclusive" (not sure who initially came up with those terms to describe the game), but leave it to the pundits over at FOXY Muse to label is as "WOKE!" and "WOKE SCRAMBLE!".

But when you consider that the Republican party, is nothing more than, performance theater, clowns performing for their supper and a spectacle comedy of errors, meant to entertain rather than govern responsibly by the rule of law and the US Constitution, it should come as no surprise, that Repubs would rather focus on the nonsense and crap, coming from the mouths of "clowns", "numbskulls" and "knuckle heads", for the mere entertainment of their gullible audiences, as opposed to doing any real official legislative work.

[Spidy]

You think the NAACP corrects nobodies? Again, this is just stupid. He has enormous influence. You still do not get that. Why do you think there was such a backlash?

Influence..sure if you're looking to talk sports or make a sports bet on the Lakers. Politics not so much! The backlash, is for making dumbass comments and comparisons, to the lived black experience, when he should know better.

Next you're gonna tell me Kanye West, has enormous political influence, in the black community (....kkkk!)

Again, you are not listening to what SAS was saying or all the newspaper articles he referred to. He affirmed the dwindling black support in his own personal circles. He has condemned the Democratic party for its lawfare tactics, and he has blasted the party for going with an 82 year old man who will be 86 when his term is up if he wins.

Black voters, VOTE for Dems to WIN, with an historic avg. 82%-86% certainty. Repubs should circle-back to me, when this changes.

The interesting thing to me were the Twitter comments. Yeah, there were 3:1 against SAS and for the NAACP. To me, that shows a splintering. I have never seen black folks criticize the NAACP like I did in those comments. So you believe what you want. We will see what happens with the vote.

Elvis 2008, as a gullible FOXY Muse watcher and in true Republican fashion, you're mistakenly taking his "numbskull comments" of equating Trump trials with the lived "black experience" (which EihTooms and I have previously highlighted) and his "SAS on-air flare", to pander to a mainly white MAGA FOXY Muse audience, as a recurring paid gig (which EihTooms and I, have already said he was doing), and in true FOXY Muse tabloid journalism style, blown it up and sensationalized it into something it's not.

The backlash, was definitely more about SAS's "numbskull comments", equating persecuted Black historical figures by LE, with that of a rich white (quasi) billionaire paying hush-money to a porn-star, that was in violation of campaign finance laws, covered-up and made into illegal business payments, is akin to the persecuted black experience?

SAS trying to backpedal:

Shameful and Pathetic: Stephen A. Smiths Apology Over Problematic Trump Comments Sparks New Criticism for Insulting Black Peoples Intelligence
https://atlantablackstar.com/2024/04...-misconstrued/

"Since you're claiming we misconstrued your words, enlighten us. Which of our historic, iconic figures (your words), that were persecuted by law-enforcement, do Black people relate to Donald Trump:," Swan began his post before naming a few civil rights leaders and freedom fighters including Martin Luther King Jr. and Fred Hampton.

Which one of them, who suffered fighting for the rights and the humanity of Black people, is best to compare with someone being prosecuted for illegally paying hush money to a porn star he had sex with, he questioned, adding, Ill wait..." {...then comes the SAS backpedaling ... }

Once again you're conflating his "sports celebrity" and on-air presence, as having some kind of huge "political sway". He was being excoriated, slammed and roasted by the black community, for his "numbskull comments", as he should know better, than to make such false and egregious comparisons.

The fact that he was equating Trump's legal problems, with those of historical Black people, who have truly been persecuted, jailed and victimized by LE and the US Criminal Justice system, was just indefensible.

The backlash, was no doubt warranted, not because they necessarily have political sway, but because their "celebrity" affords them a certain standing in the community and when you make stupid comments or do stupid things, you should expect condemnation.

Funny I don't remember any such outcry, when Rep. Tony Gonzalez (R-TX), scathing report of Republican Neo-Nazi SCUMBAGS, came to be known as huge problem. Repubs just seem to accept this as fact?

Hmmm...I wonder what's worse, poor criminal treatment of blacks by LE comparisons with Trump or Repubs who don't seem to mind the Neo-Nazi SCUMBAGS problem they have?

[Elvis 2008]

Elvis 2008, your failure to understand that SAS holds very little political sway in the black community, is dumbfoundingly odd, at best very amusing, at worse just unbelievably desperate and grasping at straws, as you're now drowning for relevance, on a topic you thought was a slum dunk ages ago.

You think the NAACP corrects nobodies? Again, this is just stupid. He has enormous influence. You still do not get that. Why do you think there was such a backlash?

Currently, 83% of Black voters are Democrats or lean Democratic, while 12% align with the GOP.
As recently as 2020, the share associating with the Democratic Party was 5 percentage points higher. That somewhat larger edge in party affiliation had been in place for much of the last two decades.

Again, you are not listening to what SAS was saying or all the newspaper articles he referred to. He affirmed the dwindling black support in his own personal circles. He has condemned the Democratic party for its lawfare tactics, and he has blasted the party for going with an 82 year old man who will be 86 when his term is up if he wins.

[Spidy]

LOL. Oh, so his opinion matters now? He is not a knucklehead? Who has the amnesia now? Who is on the weeeeeeed now?

By the way, if you actually listened to his whole speech, he referenced why he said what he did and why blacks were moving towards Trump and listed multiple sources for his doing so.
...
I repeat my point. If SAS endorsed Trump, the election would be done. That probably will not happen now, not after SAS was slapped around by the NAACP but that does not mean that Biden's support amongst blacks is not slipping.

Dude, I thought I said, "stay off the weeeeeeeeeeeeed" (...kkkk!)

Elvis 2008, your failure to understand that SAS holds very little political sway in the black community, is dumbfoundingly odd, at best very amusing, at worse just unbelievably desperate and grasping at straws, as you're now drowning for relevance, on a topic you thought was a slum dunk ages ago.

It's not like your beleaguered Repubs are going to gain any significant amount black voters, to make a difference, not matter how much you "huff-n-puff", like a big bad weeeeeeeed wolf. (...kkkk!)

Really now...is this just your way of balancing out "the cosmos", with the lost of votes due to the Republican Neo-Nazi SCUM-BAG problem, with the magical "raise" of black voters for Repubs, in the "polls" you sight?

Anywho, here again, are the recent black voting numbers you need to know for, Nov 2024, despite the sources quoted by SAS, and the pundit polls and predictions, he sources. 100% more accurate to be precise:

Pew Research Center, Partisanship by race, ethnicity and education, April 9th, 2024

• Black voters continue to overwhelmingly associate with the Democratic Party, although the extent of the Democratic advantage among this group has fallen off over the last few years.
  
  • Currently, 83% of Black voters are Democrats or lean Democratic, while 12% align with the GOP.
  • As recently as 2020, the share associating with the Democratic Party was 5 percentage points higher. That somewhat larger edge in party affiliation had been in place for much of the last two decades.
  Pew Research Cente: https://www.pewresearch.org/politics...and-education/

Once you've taken in those historic numbers on black voters, perhaps you'll be inclined to go back and answer my questions w/r to "Why Repubs, are always suppressing the black vote, if black voters are so very important to them?"

[Spidy]

Wow. Good one, Joe. You earned it.

Biden scores major union backing as its leaders attack Trump. April 23, 2024
https://www.cnn.com/2024/04/23/polit...ent/index.html

Really, you MUST read the rest of this report to savor the full delight of these union reps who have had to do business with him more than most slamming Trump for being the Deadbeat Conman Liar everyone by now should know him to be! LOL.

Great WIN for BIDEN and more scathing and scorn, from real hard working Americans, talking about real experiences with his grifter predecessor, on past infrastructure projects. Stop me if you've heard this before...

He was one of the worst clients we ever had, because he rarely kept his word and it was a fight to get him to pay us back, [NABTU President Sean] McGarvey said.

Yes, it's stories like these, hardworking American Laborers and BIDEN needs to keep front and center, that highlights the major differences between 4-yrs of steady economic growth with BIDEN and 4-yrs of mostly "empty promises" and trillion dollar tax cuts for the rich, with his incompetent predecessor.

One final touch, that was very moving, indeed [but not covered in the article], was when a Florida Union worker, had this to say to BIDEN:

• Union Worker: "Mr. President, I want to sincerely thank you. As the ONLY reason, I have a pension, is because of YOU! " {...followed by, a standing ovation and loud cheers for BIDEN...}

It was during the failed Republican administration of G.W. Bush and the 2008 US Sub-Prime Mortgage CRASH, that set off worldwide stock market crashes, and lead to the cause for the hollowing-out of Union Pension Plans going broke.

Very Well Done, President Joe Biden, for fixing bipartisan problems, for ALL Americans, wherever they exist. Blue or Red states!

PS:
EihTooms, that (9-min.) video is very illuminating. As it shows the liar, charlatan and snake-oil salesman that Trump is, spoken from the lips of laymen and American Tradesmen. As when he promised to fix the UNION pension problems, left by the previous failures of Repub G.W. Bush and did NOTHING!

President Joe Biden, came in and made the Unions Pension Plans whole. BIDEN, just gets things done for the good of the country!

Unless SAS wants more Great Repub Depressions, Great Repub Recessions and Massive Repub Jobs Destruction for America, those are dumb things to say when he could use his position and status to say something more truthful and helpful to the country instead.

LOL. Oh, so his opinion matters now? He is not a knucklehead? Who has the amnesia now? Who is on the weeeeeeed now?

By the way, if you actually listened to his whole speech, he referenced why he said what he did and why blacks were moving towards Trump and listed multiple sources for his doing so.

I did not say that SAS endorsed Trump. I said he was articulating why blacks were moving towards Trump. So SAS made clear once again that he is not supporting Trump, and you two dummies are running around spiking the football like you won something after saying SAS did not matter. LOL.

And while you post the video, you missed the Twitter feed.

NAACP: Relatable! Show of hands: Anyone in your Black family have 88 felony charges pending, filed for bankruptcy 6 x, made an attempt to overthrow a presidential election and our democracy, and still have the ability to fall asleep in court and dream of being POTUS?

SAS: This is absolutely, positively, sad that you at NAACP would misrepresent my comments like this. I was asked what Blacks WHO SUPPORT TRUMP are thinking as to why they support him. I answer THAT question. Sad! But you're entitled. Good luck. Maybe that will beat Trump, since little else seems to be working which was my overall point. We shall see.

I repeat my point. If SAS endorsed Trump, the election would be done. That probably will not happen now, not after SAS was slapped around by the NAACP but that does not mean that Biden's support amongst blacks is not slipping.

SAS either seriously not realizing how any vaguely less than supportive comment about Biden or pretending not to know that Fux News as well as every MSM pundit and pro Repub "Bothsider" will most definitely twist and spin it as a Big Win With Minorities for Trump and the Repub Party demonstrates a clumsy, careless and dangerous level of naivety that is at least bordering cheek-to-cheek with being a clueless numbskull.

It was the same with Duane The Rock Johnson publicly stating that he has decided not to endorse Biden or any other candidate this time around. How much of a clueless numbskull or, as dangerous, clumsy naive child would he have to be not to know every Fux News and MSM pro Repub "Bothsider" was going to twist and spin that as him "regretting having endorsed Biden in 2020 because Biden has divided the country so much"? Which is not what Johnson said at all.

Good lord, hasn't he, SAS and others been paying attention to how the only thing The Repub Party of Great Depressions, Great Recessions and Massive Jobs Destruction has to run and win on is twisting and spinning the tiniest gaffe or clumsy, careless vague allusion to some impossibly over exaggerated "America destroying" sucker social issue delivered by one or another clueless numbskull useful idiot who blathers some idiocy right into their waiting traps?

LOL.

EihTooms, with the WIN!

Yet another awesome find and yet another home-run article!

Is it any wonder Elvis 2008, did not want to provide the link to his initial SAS posted article, since SAS clearly states for the record:

• First he apologies, saying that, "...my words were interpreted as associating support for Trump, from the Black community, will all the legal issues he's facing...for that I sincerely apologize."

• Second SAS then explains, "To be clear, my words were misconstrued...for the record my words were taken out of context."

It's just hilarious, how Repubs, as far back as Reagan and Bush, have always composed this party narrative (right around election time), that when they find one or two "black celebrities", who suddenly speak favorably for Repubs (often bought/paid for to speak, in the case of Trump), that this somehow is represents, of the whole (or very large portion of the) black community in totality.

In short, Repubs, like Elvis 2008, always seem have this collection notion and hope and pray to god, that somehow, Black voters would suffer a bout of collective amnesia, with regards to all the nasty and illegal things Trump, Repubs and Conservatives do and say, to mitigate, suppress and disproportionately target the "black vote", come election time.

And to Elvis 2008...as SAS would say, "stay off the weeeeeeeeeeeeed" (...kkkk!)

LOL. Oh, so his opinion matters now? He is not a knucklehead? Who has the amnesia now? Who is on the weeeeeeed now?
