And what did he do for the mass murders in his hometown of Chicago, either in Senate or President? Black lives matter only when it fits the agenda.why do you guys do this.....Obama is not president and when he was he sucked, and you mindlessly believe Trump when he says Obama and Biden did nothing.....however since you brought up Obama here is what he did and ironically Trump canceled this stuff when he became president and now tries to act like Obama did not do anything....and you believe it cause the kool aid taste good.
Trump, who reversed Obama-era efforts to demilitarize police, now falsely says Obama 'never even tried' to reform policing
Trump rolled back Obama-era policing reforms, including an executive order aimed at demilitarizing law enforcement.www.businessinsider.com
Trump says Obama didn't reform policing — but he did. Then the president ditched it.
Fact check: A look at the false claim that the previous administration was nowhere on an issue roiling the nation then and now.www.nbcnews.com
In August 2017, Trump reversed an Obama policy that banned the military from selling surplus equipment to police, a measure that had been put in place amid criticism over the armored vehicles, tear gas and assault rifles used to control protests after the police killing of Michael Brown, 18, in Ferguson, Missouri, in 2014.
In addition, in September 2017, the Justice Department said it would stop the Obama-era practice of investigating police departments and issuing public reports about their failings. For example, the Justice Department had investigated the Ferguson Police Department and found unconstitutional, unlawful and racist behavior and policing within the department.
Those reports were used to demand change and negotiate consent decrees, legal agreements between local police and the Justice Department mandating reforms enforceable by courts.
No it doesn't hurt any feelings you can find something with every president to point out something if you want to bad enough. What it comes down to is a globalist view versus a national view. All these other details that everybody wants to fuss about does not matter.

Goal post just shifted just a bit.

Nah never shifted. The view just became a bit clearer to lack of care of all black lives, that’s all.

OMG Obama sucked he was a terrible president on every level.....he was very divisive and a egotistical asshole, one of the worse the Oval Office had ever seen, well until Jan 2016 when Trump took over and set the bar for divisive assholes so high it will never be eclipsed....
Also LOL at how you guys are stuck on Obama, it is kind of funny/ironic that you guys constantly complain that people are giving Trump a hard time and how we focus on only the bad stuff he does, but you literally cant make a post without mentioning or bashing Obama who has not been president for almost 4 years.....

It’s fairly relevant since the 2020 dem candidate was his VP for 8 years. Ironically enough, Biden has been the only 2020 candidate that has made racist remarks.

The man literally got sued and lost for having racist business practices....but anyways knock yourself out....you will dismiss all of this because you dont want it to be true...you will attack the source etc etc etc....
An Oral History of Trump’s Bigotry
His racism and intolerance have always been in evidence; only slowly did he begin to understand how to use them to his advantage.

You’re just wasting your time, you will never get a straight honest answer from anyone on this, just more deflection and whining.

Letter: Those accusing Trump of racism ignore his record
Those who falsely call President Trump a racist are refusing to respect all that our president has done for minorities before becoming president. A few of the awards earned by President Trump before he became president include the following:

Looks like a Biden type crowd....for 10 of his rallies combined.
The plantation (Democrat party) would throw them out if they spoke out against the expectations of their vote. Yes. There are many not saying they support Trump. I say 15% will vote Trump, to be conservative.

That article is paywalled
Meh getting awards for donating money to causes to improve his image versus his actual actions in relation to POC are two different things.....they gave Obama a Nobel peace prize I am pretty sure you think he does not deserve it.....

Sounds like roid rage. That’s when I’d sick sick that pit bull on him.
In this day and time if he did that he'd be accused of being a racist

The Atlanta officer should not have even been a cop anymore if this is all true. He was involved in another shooting and they lied about it and covered it up.
The fact they were even able to cover up a shooting on their police report should have been enough to warrant firing and even charges against them. This is the exact kind of blue wall protection that needs to go.

Garrett Rolfe, the officer charged with killing Rayshard Brooks, was accused of covering up a police shooting of a Black man in 2015
Former Atlanta police officer Garrett Rolfe faces 11 charges in connection to the June 12 fatal shooting of Rayshard Brooks.

Plantation is a poor choice of words. Maybe establishment would be a better choice or something not involving slavery
Plantation is a great use of words because all they do is control people for their votes. The truth is Democrats have been in charge of cities for decades now and black people still live in poverty.. I would definitely change my point of view if I saw positive results. Every Democratic campaign promises the same thing every single time nothing changes.

Hence Trump saying, what do you have to lose?
That's a huge IF, Yahoo news and the guardian.....ok. Fact is those officers should've not been charged in the Brooks incident. He punched an officer and took his taser, you do that, you have put officers lives at risk and in a deadly use of force situation.The Atlanta officer should not have even been a cop anymore if this is all true. He was involved in another shooting and they lied about it and covered it up.

They hung the bronze confederate soldiers by a noose on a lamp post ? Thank god the main soldier is really high up they won’t be able to take that one down. Shame , will go back up I’m sure though Raleigh hasn’t said anything about taking it down.
Trump 2020! One of two things will happen , either democrats get their wish and enough people believe the lies they said about trump and fall into the confusion of what’s going on now. Or , enough people ( most likely option) pour and Trump wins in a landslide , let’s face it a clap back on this insanity is coming.

It's not yahoo news. That's the search engine. The article is from Business Insider.
Mr Brooks made some very bad decisions that night. There is no doubt there.
Maybe just maybe we have a cop with an itchy trigger finger though?
Most cops go their entire careers without using their service weapons and this cop uses his 3 times in 7 years and lied about it in one of the incidents!!?
That's gonna draw some serious scrutiny and it should.

I cant wait to vote for biden. Gonna be my most important vote for president ever I believe.
Headline on wral says "Protesters tear down part of state monument". Protesters dont tear things down and destroy stuff. That's called Rioting. We really are a sick society.
I'm not a Trump fan, but this liberal ideology hasn't done a thing to improve the lives of minorities. And nobody has an answer for that except to say, "But Trump".

Your not voting for Biden. Your voting for Harris. Biden is the temporary puppet. How more people don’t see this I’ll never understand
Yeah, I will go on record and say absolutely no way Biden makes it 4 years. If I'm wrong, I'll be a big boy and take the trolling down the line.

Yeah I am not at the point I am willing to vote Dem yet, I cant see my self voting Biden, though if I KNEW 100% my vote for Biden would be the one to prevent Trump getting 4 more years I would do it I think...I do think Trump will be worse for the country than Biden, though both are going to be bad.....so at this point I am going to not vote for either....
I really hope the GOP runs Haley/Rubio etc in 2024....

Also anyone who doesn't think Kamala Harris won't bring some crazy left wing ideology into the WH once she becomes president is crazy. I agree with most that Biden is more moderate that a lot of his fellow Dems, but he is just a temporary puppet to win the election. Once he gets that part accomplished he will be pushed aside and Harris will then go farrrrrrrrrrr left.
