PRESIDENT TRUMP willing to "vouch" for the release/Bail out of African-American Rapper, A$AP Rocky.
question, who cares about ASAP Rocky? undecided oh! Sorry, the i can't be racist because I have a black friend group, how many black Americans have you seen come out to advocate for ASAP Rocky's release? Shelve your ignorance dude, ASAP Rocky told the BLM that their issues don't affect him because he lives in Beverley hills so his issues can't affect black Americans either as most don't live in his Beverley hills either so if this is your trump isn't a racist card try harder, this one is a big fail

Funny how he is always right and they always turn out wrong. Remember when he wanted to declare an emergency over the border crisis and they all cried that there was no crisis at the border? Fake news CNN's Jim Acosta ran to the border to take pictures and claim that Trump was contriving a crisis. Fast forward to few months later and the same lunatic liberals and fake news media are at the same borders crying about a crisis, doing photo ops and blaming Trump for the crisis. Never mind that many of these same hypocrites refused to vote to provide more funds for Beds at these facilities when Trump requested it. Even the recent increased funds that was approved for the border agencies to provide better conditions in those facilities, AOC and her squad voted against providing those funds yet they were at the borders crying a few days earlier. You can't exaggerate this kind of stupidity, liberals in the US are the most stupid set of people ever
oh, let's be economical with the facts shouldn't we, seeing as other people can't or won't remember that the democrats actually refused to vote for increased funding because trump tied the funding to funding for an unnecessary border wall which i am sure Mexico is paying for, I thought you used to like facts?

They called it "Trump Manufactured Crises"

Bunch of lunatics!!

it is a manufactured crisis, I don't expect to convince you but I expect you to employ the logic of someone older than an adolescent kid, crossing the borders at non designated entry points is illegal, crossing same border at designated entry points is legal, being a refugee whether political or economical isn't a crime under US law, neither is seeking asylum against the law, so when trump shuts down many of the legal entry points what do you think will happen at the rest entry points if not a crisis that was manufactured? Well, given who you are, I don't expect this simple logic to sink into your brain

Democrats and lies are just like Siamese twins, you can't separate them.

A Georgia democratic congresswoman named Erica Thomas just pulled Jussie Smollett 2.0 on the media. She claims a white man verbally assaulted her at a mall and told her to go back where she came from. Of course, as you would expect the Democrats and media ran with it as an example of how Trump's supporters are misogynistic and racist in the wake of the send her back chants at Trump's rally. Well the alleged "white Trump supporter" has come forward and behold, he is in fact a Hispanic Democrat originally from Cuba. Surprised? Worse still, he never told her to go back to where she came from. He only called her out for leaving the queue where she was and crossing to another. Now that she has been exposed, she has now come out to admit that he never said those words to her SMH.
Meanwhile, the same media who ran with the story are suddenly hiding the story and trying to suppress any mention of it. And the Democrats have suddenly gone dumb. What a bunch of dishonest losers. Well Twitter has gone ballistics and is letting them have it

And what then is your take on trump telling ilhan Omar and the other three congress women to go back to where they came from? undecided your personal take, racist or not?

In order to pay a $15/hr minimum wage for his campaign staffers, Bernie Sanders is cutting their hours

If he implemented his policies on a federal level, 75% of businesses would cut hours & 3.7M jobs would be lost

He knows his ideas are trash yet he still forces them on America

You're a bloody liar!!! Trump didn't tie the provision of more beds to immigrants holding facilities on wall spending. He earlier said he wouldn't sign any spending bill that didn't include money for the wall but he backed off From that and the Senate eventually passed a 1.3 trillion spending bill which he signed but during the negotiations for that bill, republicans pushed for funds to increase the number of beds in those facilities but the Democrats adamantly refused to grant any funding for that. At this stage, border wall funding was no longer on the table, Trump had accepted to sign the compromise deal and get funding for the whole from elsewhere. So where did you get that nonsense about Trump tying funding for more beds to border wall funding?

Now that is not only a black conservative, a black conservative trump supporter inferring that Trump's core base is actually racist, or maybe you are one of the most stupid persons that ever lived
This is my own personal opinion about my fellow blacks in the US(The liberals among them anyway) and has nothing to do with what Trump or his white supporters say about Blacks so you are the only one who is inferring what ever you are inferring, I never told you I was speaking on behalf of Trump and note this, criticizing Black's doesn't equate racism, if blacks behave stupidly and you call them stupid, that doesn't make you racist.

good, I wanted you to air your stance publicly, Bernie Sanders has been advocating for almost identical social reforms the four congress women have been advocating for for far longer, when has trump ever told him to go back to where he came from? I remember Trump's birther controversy on Obama and his allusions to Obama being more Kenyan than american, my question is simple, "which of his white political opponents has he ever made any comments whether positive or negative that alluded directly or tangentially to their places of origin"? apart from race and party, what else do the four congresswomen and Obama have in common?

Yes, you here in Nigeria with me has the right to a personal opinion but what you don't have is the experience of what actually constitutes and connotes racism from the perspective of people (black and colored) who have experienced racism firsthand, people whose parents and grandparents actually lived through and fought against governments whose official policies were racist so when they come out to say a statement is racist from the wealth of their experience, your belief that they are stupid actually makes you the stupid one since the condemnation of those tweets cuts across the political divide for people who actually experience racism

fact Trump and fox new are afraid of Aoc, mocking her for been poor. but for you ZENDI who the fu*k are you the president of Nigeria . she may have been a bartender but she won an election and work for living not like Ivanka which only credibility she have been a daughter of one idiot. the squad Trump biggest nightmare
A bartender turned Congresswoman is good success, but she should then leave bartender comicry behind and turn quickly to the serious business of lawmaking and oversight duties.
She proposed a Green "No" Deal which nobody dared vote for.
She prophesied the end of the world which everybody has scoffed at.
She led the chasing away of New York's 25000 Amazon jobs. This alone should have earned her instant recall anywhere else than the tribal stronghold of her hispanic dominated District.
When the backlash from all this blunders comes she'll just shrugg it off as "conversation" and just move on to the next fumble.
Is it these comical "conversations" that has made her the socialist avater that Foxnews and Trump should be scared of?

Economics is really not that hard.

So Bernie, who is not making any profit is cutting workers time because paying 15dollars will be a drain on his pocket but you want real business men whose sole motive is profit to hire more workers?
How are they going to pay them?
But the real hypocrisy was that Bernie for all his minimum wage talk crap wasn't even paying it in the first place

https://abc6onyourside.com/news/nation-world/democrats-caps-on-detention-beds-emerge-as-new-sticking-point-in-funding-negotiations

And when you're done reading, learn to back your arguments with facts and not with lies

Couldn't open the first link since I have exceeded my monthly quota with the journal but here's quoting from your second "[b]“ICE is jailing immigrants at rates higher than we have EVER seen in history. It has nothing to do w/ public safety & everything to do with the fact that (1) this administration has a war on immigrants of color and (2) it believes it can operate unchecked & Congress doesn't matter,” said Madhuri Singh Grewal, federal immigration policy counsel for the American Civil Liberties Union, on Twitter Sunday.

Citing ICE data from November 2017, the National Immigrant Justice Center said about half of detainees in ICE custody are classified as “non-criminal” and posing “no threat.”

Even ICE knows their rhetoric is false. Last year ICE’s own data showed that they classify more than 50% of the people in their jails as posing zero community safety risk,” Heidi Altman, policy director for the NIJC, tweeted Sunday.

Although Democrats mostly won the last shutdown standoff, Hauman predicted refusing to bend on detention beds for criminals will be a harder sell politically than stiffing Trump on funding for a wall he promised Mexico would pay for.[/b]
So this was my request

Remember, I asked you to avoid half truths from the start, democrats simply refused to fund beds for criminals that do not exist, the border "crisis" manufactured by trump didn't detain "criminals" or do ICE raid illegals and send them to the border for detention? We are talking about the border here mind you, except you have designated being a refugee or an asylum seeker as a crime so you Mr are unsurprisingly a big liar, just like your hero trump

These Liberals who will always claim racism are very wicked to the core! They will never tell you the truth!
To them all talking about how poor Mississippi is, maybe we've got to ask them if there are much homeless people compared to the large number of homelessness you get in their zones.. All they do is think about themselves.. In New York, it's very difficult for someone to give you 1 buck without extorting you.. They know the truth! These are black communities.. The only thing those talkatives know is showing off!

This is the truth most of them tend to think good advice says more about their race than their character... Always crying bout racism all the time that's what they're known for, usually for the purpose of gaining some cheap advantage, discount, unearned privilege, time extension, special permission...

To that mumpe, if I as a Black, wide nose guy I haven't experienced racism in Mississippi, Arkansas and North Dakota, then he should shut up!

Most Black students here are living very large thanks to supposed 'white owned Churches'

They give them cars, free stuffs and all that.. And these Africans lie a lot just to gains favors from these Whites and they'd turn around and go on Social Media to shout RACISM.. Most of them survived in the USA thanks to White women YES WHITE WOMEN!
I've seen a lot of them! But racism racism racism is what you'd see them discuss always!

Some do this just to discourage their people so they won't come to America and experience the good life
they've been experiencing! To anyone that talks about racism, tell the person RACISM KEE YOU THERE!

I can't even make any sense out of what you are writing. Trump didn't seek a funding for detention beds for illegal immigrants detained in the interior different from the ones detained at the border. ICE simply requested for increase in the number of detention beds in their holding facilities. They wanted 52, 000 beds to cover all their detention centres including those at the borders but Democrats refused and even wanted to reduce the about 40,000 beds already approved for them to about 35,000 claiming that there was no crises at the border and since you claim you can't open the first link, I've taken the pain to screen grab the relevant portions in the post for you.

As for your claim that ice wanted beds for nonexistent criminals, that's another bloody lie from you, as of the time that bill was negotiated, ICE had already exceeded the number of beds at their facilities. They had in detention over 48,000 people when they had only been given a quota of about 40,000 beds. So you're telling me that the extra 8,000 people they were holding were ghosts who don't exist
