Regardless, praising Trump is definitely NOT an act of decency or intelligence. @gyesekissi No, it’s an act of stupidity, and we already have millions of people who worship him. @johnclavis I would criticize someone who said two plus two equals five, whether they were the most or the least popular person on earth. So should you. @IbrahimSapien__ That’s just stupid. By that rationale, being in a red state and praising Osama Bin Laden is downright heroic. @magguu_ i agree. i admire trumpanzees who are willing to let the world know what shitty people they are. takes a certain courage. ~ I looked at the other thread, and I noticed something. The Man you refer to describes himself as a “foreigner.” In other words he is not the descendant of African slaves, which is what most people think of when they think of a black person. A dark skinned person, from another country, is different from a dark skinned person born in the USA. It should not surprise you that this man will have a different attitude about Mr. Trump. ~ The Democrats made a cynical decision to use race as a campaign issue. ~ pictures are from The Library of Congress. ~ selah
