    No offence but that sounds too good to be true and like something made up by a Trump supporter to counter the mass of documented racism from Trump. Got a link to a source?
    There’s a good NY times fact check on Trumps claims about being the best president since Lincoln for the black community. The black unemployment figures is the lowest since records were collected in 1972 at 5.9%. But the overall rate is falling for all Americans, partly because part time and temporary work has increased exponentially since the 90s, as it has in the U.K, so historical comparisons of unemployment aren’t that useful. Nowadays the poor do two jobs and are still poor.

    When they incorporated all the cuts to federal programmes to the matrix, they had him in the bottom 25% in terms of ranking presidents. Not the worst, just not great. And that study only focused on living standards, it didn’t take in to account the rhetoric and race dog whistles. The only clearly more racist president they found was Andrew Jackson.

    I see Kanye West is talking about running for president. Despite the fact he appears to be a bit of a weirdo, after they voted in Trump anything is possible in America.

    That's a good post, that's a great post, a beautiful post. I've not read the post but people tell me it was a great post. I talk to lots of people. Thar's what they tell me. By the way, I've done deals, some great deals.

    Crooked Hillary, Sleepy Joe, I don't want to talk about the guy who was in before me, it wasn't right or legal, I'm not saying that, that's what I hear. That's what people tell me. I hear lots of things. Yes. Interesting things, things that are interesting. I can't say any more but it is interesting.

    Kanye, he's a great guy, an interesting guy. I hear that a lot. I don't know. People talk about Kanye and that's what I hear. He is a good guy, that's what people tell me. I don't know him but he is a great and beautiful guy. That's what I've heard. I don't lnow.

    Is the suggestion not that this is a tactic by Trump? West is too late to register to stand as an independent in a handful of states so has little chance of actually being elected. However, he could stand as a “write-in” candidate in some of those states where he could take some of the black and young vote away from Biden which may help Trump.

    Though I read an article this morning which said that it might backfire and West might actually eat into Trump’s share of the vote as West’s pro-Trump declarations have made him unpopular amongst Democrats.

    Alternatively, it is a publicity stunt for his new album.

    Kanye is a republican. It’s kind of condescending, not to say racist, for them to assume black people will vote for someone just because they’re black. (Buut not beyond, their logical framework).

    If there is actual evidence that could be proved? This could be damning but im guessing his supporters will use the fake news and Marxist antifa mantra.

    It's no surprise - his behaviour is exactly what filthy racists do and he needs to be called out for it. Also not surprising that so much of his base will lap it up, but depressing that Kayleigh McEnany is so willing to parrot his bigotry.

    Does anyone remember when George W was considered the deranged ‘hard right’ president? He’s an absolute Gandhi compared to the current incumbent.

    And remember when Dan Quayle misspelt potato and was portrayed as the stupidest guy alive. He's probably Einstein compared to Trump.

    Having read some the ***** Kanye West comes out with he's either a good wind up merchant (which I assume is the case) or 100 times thicker than Trump.

    It's well put together but the 1st response makes an interesting point.

    They've had 4 years to reject him. Powerful as it is, it comes from desperation, would they be so critical about Trump if he was flying high in the polls?

    It doesn't matter. Hopefully it will influence some of them not to vote.

    'A generation that can't remember Reagan need to realise that he was seen as an extremely right wing turn away from traditional conservativism. But the normalisation of Reaganism has allowed Trumpism to be born. Think what happens in the future if Trump is normalised.'

    The one re-Thatcher and making a UK version, maybe?

    She never made such inspirational, inclusive speeches, as hollow as it was from Ron.

    If he's willing to commute this sentence now, how many pardons will he give to his friends and associates at the end of his term?
