Summary

Melik Abdul, a GOP strategist and Black Americans for Trump Coalition member, criticized Donald Trump on CNN for blaming a D.C. plane crash on DEI policies without evidence.

He warned that Trump’s recent rise in Black voter support isn’t guaranteed.

    24 “News” networks are not news. They’re basically reality shows at this point. We need to all stop treating them as news. Yes this guy is a dumbass. Moving on.

      This is the answer. This dipshit is on national TV 100% because he was duped by a con-man. A con-man that over 75 million people saw for exactly what he was. If this guy, and everyone who stupidly follows him, didn’t see it, that’s on him & them.

    Hi! You must be new here.

    He warned that Trump’s recent rise in Black voter support isn’t guaranteed.

    Your support one way or the other doesn’t matter any more. You’ve doomed us all unfortunately.

    It’s too bad stupid people were also allowed to vote.

    It’s hard to wrap ones head around the concept of “Black Americans for Trump” as an idea. Can you get anymore racist than current times GOP lead by Trump? What did those people expect? Getting spared from the new Nazi regime for being bootlickers?

    Big “he’s not hurting the people he’s supposed to hurt” energy.

    Also, really hard to feel any sympathy and respond with anything other than

    Because we all fucking knew this is what he was going to do. Anyone who supported him and is surprised doesn’t necessarily need to be laughed at, but I’m not exactly going to be very sympathetic to them getting the shit we knew was coming. They’re just mad that it wasn’t chocolate ice cream they opened up for…

    I… I just can’t fathom how this happened a second time after a four year break. You saw what the idiot did… you could actually see him say he’s going to be worse in his rallies. And yes you voted for him…

    Nah, you made this hard for us. Every vote for that man made it harder for all of us. I am baffled how many people thought they would be part of the “in group.”
