    There’s a handful of black folks in Chicago that comprise a group called “Chicago Flips Red”, who have showed up to events promoting MAGA and decrying the Democratic Machine politics in the city. They are a tiny contingent that is not reflective of the sentiment of the vast majority, but I’m sure Trump will trot them out to exalt him.

      I remember the black guys holding obama with a hitler mustache signs in public places. Never could decide if they were being paid or crazy or a little of both.

    On Friday, the president suggested that the crime crackdown was requested by “the people in Chicago,” who he insisted “are screaming for us to come.”

    Trump then claimed these citizens of Chicago who are clamoring for military intervention in their city “are wearing red hats, just like this one. But they are wearing red hats. African American ladies, beautiful ladies are saying, ‘Please, President Trump, come to Chicago, please.’”

    Dementia Donnie at it again.

      ladies are saying, ‘Please, President Trump, come to Chicago, please.’”

      It’s amazing how every person he talks to has the same idiotic speech pattern.

        I will never cease hurting my brain that people listen to him speak and don’t instantly realize everything that comes out of his mouth is a lie even if it’s factual

    I say it all the time

    The idiot is not the person uttering nonsense

    The idiots are the crowd of people that keep listening to it all and accepting it as normal.
