(1)“For the first time I saw humbleness”[sic]
(2)“He sounded scripted but I still believe it was from the heart”
Couple of quotes from parishioners from the Detroit church Donald Trump visited on Saturday. We certainly are a people of varying opinions and beliefs , not sure how he could be perceived as scripted while being genuine and from the heart but I digress.
Look we are a forgiving people, we are a loving people, we are a people predisposed to giving people the benefit of the doubt even when they haven’t earned it.
Sometimes to a fault…
Trust is earned, you do not get to spend seven decades disparaging and discriminating against me and then show up talking about many people don’t know Lincoln was a republican because you want their vote.
Then again that may very well be just me, that may be attributable to that fierce and indomitable Jamaican spirit , that Ashanti blood which courses through my veins.
You go to a black church talking about “some people don’t know that Lincoln was a republican” , when did Trump learn this.
Don’t come to us talking about Lincoln as if black folk should be eternally grateful to the republican party because he signed the emancipation proclamation, he did so because he was forced to.
Lincoln needed bodies for the war effort.Lincoln needed to keep the French from getting involved in the war to protect their territory of Louisiana.The emancipation proclamation accomplishes both goals tactically for Lincoln
Secondly this republican party hasn’t been the party of Lincoln since the 1968 signing of the civil rights act.
I was pleasantly surprised said one parishioner who heard Trump in Detroit Saturday” it was like it was a new Donald Trump ” .
Ha ha ha ..I really don’t mean to laugh.
As a kid growing up in rural Jamaica we loved to throw rocks and everything we could find at the numerous chameleons that graced the trees we loved to climb. We simply called them green lizards. Back then we thought they were mad at us when we threw rocks at them. As we got older we learned they changed from that beautiful green to make themselves less conspicuous when they face danger.
So even though it was the very same reptile it was able to change itself to suit whatever situation it was in .
That is vintage Donald Trump.
Trump the relatively sane-looking wannabe president trying to appear presidential standing next to Mexican president Enrique Pena Nieto was exponentially different than the much darker Trump who threw out red meat to a ravenous right-wing crowd in Arizona after leaving his meeting with Pena Nieto.
So of course the Donald Trump who have Blacks summarily kicked out of his events, would be different than the Trump who turned up in Detroit on Saturday to change his appearance with white voters.
What the hell, why not use these props to his advantage , to get his point across to his real target audience.
Hey , he may even get a few of the negroid props to vote for him , why not, a vote is a vote right, nothing wrong with using one stone to kill two birds?
SELF LOATHING.…
It’s not an overly brilliant strategy , neither is it a silly strategy . It is a strategy which could actually work under normal circumstances, but for it’s transparent nature.
It could absolutely have worked had Trump not had such a sordid history of racist bigotry.
Trump will get a few black votes , not many . Much the same way he will get some Hispanic votes despite his caustic barrage of hateful rhetoric against their entire race.
Because there are Mexican immigrants who refer to Mexicans as “Illegals”, one went as far as to say the Mexicans must be stopped or “soon there will be a taco truck on every corner”.
Wow !!!
You absolutely cannot make that kind of stuff up.
There will always be the likes of Marco Gutierrez, and of course the black apostate who parades as a pastor, Mark Burns the fire-breathing liar who peddles religion, his lips dripping with perdition .
Lied about serving in the Army National Reserve. (Served in his state national reserve). Said he overstated his accomplishments. No Mark you speak often about not being politically correct, so let me help you with this non-political assessment, you did not overstate your accomplishments.
You straight out lied and that makes you a damn lying fraud.
Lied about completing a bachelors of science degree from North Greenville University.
Lied about being a fraternal member of Kappa Alpha Psi. Lies, lies, lies, yet you purport to be a man of God, no you are a fraud and a charlatan.
When exposed in a lie by a black CNN Anchor Victor Blackwell the huckster said he did it so he would be taken seriously!
No fake pastor, the path to respectability begins with respect,truthfulness, honor, letting your word be your bond.
You weren’t seeking to be taken seriously, you were seeking hype, you were seeking attention and not the kind of attention you should have craved . The attention of God Almighty.
But Burns was not done , he accused Blackwell and CNN of trying to , get this , “I thought we were doing a profile, and all of a sudden you’re here to try to destroy my character,”
Did this lying bastard just say “character”?
No faux-pastor Burns the interviewer was simply doing his job, he cannot destroy that which does not exist.
You did that to yourself when you decide to fake a resume’.
How appropriate that this lying huckster would be aligned to another huckster trying to con his way into the Presidency?
Notice in his tweet how he couched himself in the word of the lord to pull the wool over the eyes of those who sit and listen to him in tweet below.
I’M SO THANKFUL FOR A GOD WHO LOOKS BEYOND OUR FAULTS AND MEETS OUR NEEDS..I LOVE YOU ALL.
Lying deceptive bastard.
