Former President Donald Trump claimed Friday that his four criminal indictments have boosted his support among Black Americans because they see him as a victim of discrimination, comparing his legal jeopardy to the historic legacy of anti-Black prejudice in the U.S. legal system.
Trump argues he is the victim of political persecution, even though there is no evidence President Joe Biden or White House officials influenced the filing of 91 felony charges against him. Earlier in the week, Trump compared himself to Alexei Navalny, Russian President Vladimir Putin’s top domestic rival, who died in a remote Arctic prison after being jailed by the Kremlin leader.
“I got indicted for nothing, for something that is nothing,” Trump told a black-tie event for Black conservatives in South Carolina ahead of Saturday’s Republican primary. “And a lot of people said that’s why the Black people like me, because they have been hurt so badly and discriminated against, and they actually viewed me as I’m being discriminated against. It’s been pretty amazing but possibly, maybe, there’s something there.”
guess Trump misunderstood that title of that show called “Orange is the New Black”
“And a lot of people said that’s why the Black people like me, because they have been hurt so badly and discriminated against, and they actually viewed me as I’m being discriminated against. It’s been pretty amazing but possibly, maybe, there’s something there.”
I may have never read a more delusional, tone-deaf, preposterous, and wholly fabricated crock of bullshit in my entire life. Does he dream these things up himself or does he somehow still have yes-men who feed these hallucinations to him?
What the fucking hell? I mean, even the most die-hard Trump-is-my-god-emporer-forever-I-will-topple-democracy-for-him maga has got to know that this is absolute horseshit, right?
Remember when Trump took out a 1 page ad in the paper calling for the death penalty for the central park 5?

Even better, he continued AFTER they were exonerated, got a settlement, and someone else confessed and was convicted based on DNA evidence. If there’s one thing this chump can’t do, it’s ever admit he was wrong. Oh, and another, he can’t just stfu about something.

It’s important to point out they were all cleared after the fact and were released after serving years in prison. NYC settled with The Exonerated 5 for $41 million dollars.
Fox news told him black-voters like him because of this golden sneakers…
So in his brain right now, he thinks black-voters like him,
Thinking why that is, he knows black people historically were treated unfair by the court system, and apparently he is too,
So he thinks himself a genius with smart gene’s that he linked those two thoughts together, and thinks that’s another reason why black-voters must like him.
He’s been spitting out everything he can hoping some victimization will stick… Jew prosecution, Navalny, etc. Dude’s a moron, and I still can’t believe there are people dumb enough to be fooled by such low effort manipulation.
I bet you anything that he comes up with the early versions of these crazy ideas then tells them to some personal bootlicker who then repeats them back the next day, to distract him from bad news. His brain is such swiss cheese that he thinks it is the first time hearing it. Repeat a few times and now it is fact.
You know what these blacks really like? Crime and sneakers.
It’s incredible how weird their racism has gotten.
They were openly racist before.
Now they reverted to some weird form of ignorant racism.
Black people vote for us because of golden shoes.
Black people vote for us because we’re criminals.
Trump just jumbles whatever the last few people he talked to told him and regurgitates it. He surrounds himself with an ever-changing mire of idiots and racists of all kinds.
Don’t excuse the rest of the party, Trump is just leading the ones too stupid to keep quiet about the racism.
These groups are very insular. At mar-a-lago over cocktails or whatever, you can probably spout of classist nonsense without anyone batting an eye with polite silence greeting really overt racism. I seriously doubt anyone there would stand up and challenge you saying that kind of thing.
But I’m guessing these people go way further behind closed doors. And this is how they think what they say is acceptable. The more insular, the bigger the gap between between what real people think is ok and what the people in these privileged spaces think is ok.
What we need is for someone to leak video of Trump saying the stuff they say in backrooms. If you’ll recall there is precedent for this.

It’s a delicate balance between courting the black vote and not alienating their base of ignorant rednecks and full on white supremacists
