The term useful idiots comes to mind.
If your misogyny leads you to trust, promote, and vote for a blatant racist, thinking he will only treat the “others” (thugs, welfare queens, etc)badly.
Then you need to study history.
Nope. Stop. STFU. You do not get to complain about his picks if you voted for him. HE IS EXACTLY THE RACIST WE TOLD HE IS AND YOU *IMAGINED* HE WOULD BE DIFFERENT. Go home and re-evaluate your life choices.
Y’all drank the kool-aid didn’t you . The man has never favored anyone of color its in his DNA he can’t help himself . Made y’all boys look foolish you too Ms Owens .
Here's the thing, at least for the high profile Black grifters: in their heart of hearts they know EXACTLY what these white supremacists think of them. They're just cynical to a degree most of us can't fathom, and willing to do almost anything to get ahead. Even sell out their own community
For the rank-and-file Black conservatives, they fall into a handful of camps.
1. Desired proximity to whiteness and its "benefits"
2. Genuine discrimination against "liberal" associated demographics of ppl
3. They're simply uninformed and/or dumb AF
4. Zero genuine connections to their community
When you vote for a racist, you can’t be surprised that you now have a racist in office. There has never been a single moment of trump’s life that is wasn’t 100% clear that he is a racist/rapist/fraud/corrupt/misogynist.
You have to understand that so many people function on a level barely a step up from instinct. There is no introspection. No metacognition. We will not reach them.
People take on the values of people around them. If you're black in a white or wealthy environment, it's easy to get more conservative. Look at rappers - once they get money and move in white circles, they become Trump supporters. You feel less for the people you used to be around when you made it.
There are definitely poor Republicans, but it's rare to have political/social values completely different from everyone around you. I bet they have some social circle that's conservative, even just online. Plus there are black people that want to associate with whiteness, but that's another issue.
Oh you missed a LOT. They were MAD at him down here in GA. After that election he refused to give the GOP the $ he had leftover. They wanted to use it for future campaigns. He said he legally didn’t have to so he wasn’t. 😂😂
Wow, yeah, Republicans will let their candidates get away with a lot of things, - exploit the poor, burden the sick and cheat the elderly - but they won't put up with anyone messing with their campaign money! So Walker isn't going to see any appointment to Trump's creature parade.
Must have come as quite a shock to figure out after all these years that P01135809 really doesn't give a flying f about Black folks. It wasn't just an act.
What TF did you actually expect? Only use Black people have for him is to garner the support of other Black people, and for one, MAYBE two, to serve as tokens for some illusion of inclusivity
