“First step act”......

Scoop: Trump regrets following Jared Kushner's advice on prison reform

Sources say the president is resolving to jettison any policies that go against his instincts, such as police reform.

Meanwhile, that dude is reportedly upset at the “first step act”. Days later, he signs an EO order further criminalizing the destruction and removal of racist, confederate monuments. And calls for minimum of 10 years...for destruction of such racist property.

A week later, he commends his handpicked attorney general for building a secret police force to arrest protesters. The same ATTORNEY GENERAL that wrote the case for MORE INCARCERATION.

I didn’t thank Trump for anything.

You thank Roy Moore though.

 

[dwalk31]

You thank Roy Moore though.

I haven’t thanked Roy Moore for anything

Crediting them as a catalyst for change because of their dog whistling and racism is bizarre. Even by your standards.

You ignored where I said the credit belongs. I’ll repost:

But the credit belongs in the hands of the leaders who have been speaking on these issues for years, not with Trump.

I would like to take this moment to thank slaveowners for being the catalyst that led to emancipation.

they deserve reparations too.

My fiancé is a black woman.

Again, using your own words below. You credited them as a catalyst for change.

I stated my position earlier; his administration has served as a catalyst for change.

I didn't think Delk could get anymore pathetic, but damn, I was wrong.

He should be thanking you for your never ending support of his activities.

Out of all the “fine people” to pardon. This guy, a convicted criminal gets it.





Central Park Five, exonerated....still considered guilty by Trump. No words from dwalk31 tho.

Chris Wallace did a pretty good job interviewing Trump. Really emphasizes just how bad other networks are at interviewing Trump.
ABC News in particular just lets him ramble with zero pushback on his lies.

No, but I might post some pics of the wedding/reception in the wedding/marriage thread.

Ohhhh so the $1K you took from a business in need will be used to fund a portion of your wedding? You couldn’t have just opted for a set amount of biscuits for each table instead of unlimited? Maybe use a cheaper butter substitute?

 

[dwalk31]

Love to see interracial couples. Congrats.

We are both black.

 

[dwalk31]

Again, using your own words below. You credited them as a catalyst for change.

You are now using the word credit in a way that you weren’t initially. Credit is your word.

I think it is because you initially mischaracterized the word catalyst.

 

[RustyShackleford]

deuce king

 

[niketalker23]

We are both black.

Oh, when did you finally tell her?

The grant was for business expenses. My wedding/reception is not a business expense.

Also, I’ve said it before and I will say it again, the butter biscuit rhetoric is racist, derogatory, and offensive.

 

[dwalk31]

Oh, when did you finally tell her?

When did I finally tell her what?

Wouldn’t even call that a “good” interview. Trump greenlit it, to give Fox News some credibility.

Access is the name of the game. He only gives access to them. Yamichie and black reporters ask him tough questions all the time. He never remotely engages and revokes access. Only allows small criticism of him from networks he needs.

You’re crediting them as a catalyst.

Credit - To give someone praise, admiration, or acknowledgement for some task, achievement, or accomplishment.
catalyst -a person or thing that precipitates an event.

You’re trying to out semantic me when it doesn’t change anything that you said. You credited the administration for being a catalyst here, when it’s an absurd stance to take.

Okay, no point in going back and forth about it.

It's pretty crazy that he's shown outrage over people on NT calling Roy Moore a pedo than he has for all of the ****** up **** that the Trump administration has done.

He probably just doesn't give a **** about people.
