Well, maybe if the media did not say to drink bleach we would not have this issue.


I hope none of our lefties take the bait and respond to this trolling post with anything other than mockery.

Minnesota Democrat Mayors Endorse Donald Trump: Biden Did ‘Nothing’ for Working Class

"Six Democrat Minnesota mayors endorsed President Donald Trump over former Vice President Joe Biden on Friday, asserting that Trump has improved the lives of Minnesotans, while Biden has moved too far to the left."

Biden is imploding before our eyes
and he never even left his basement.

In the last night of the RNC, Trump said he has "done more for blacks in four years than Biden has in fifty years"....

This is not new for the last several years he has said things along those lines mkre generally, he has made several Twitter postings over the last few years, "My Admin has done more for the Black Community than any President since Abraham Lincoln. "

Does anyone actually beleive this? I would hope not, but I would nkt bet on it.... Also Trump seems obsessed with Lincoln, it seems like every issue is "since Lincoln".....

Lots of Blacks certainly do. I subscribe
to several Youtube channels with
Black hosts and they talk about it
all the time. How Obama said
he would improve the Black
community and how Trump is
actually doing it. Minority
businesses are are going gang
busters under Trump policies,
according to them.

There have been more Presidents than Obama and Trump since Lincoln.

I think any sane person would say any President who fought against jim crow laws has done more.... Johnson is one of the best (and one of the greatest presidents of all time).

Even Bush did more for "blacks" in the global sense, his Africa relief where he saved actual lives by the millions. One reason I don't mind saying that I respect Bush.

Trump has done nothing, but tax cuts which helped all businesses (including black owned businesses), and working with Kim Kardashian (let the irony sink in) on "criminal justice reform" for some media-centic pardons.

When Trump visited his AC casinos (before he lost them) blacks were not even allowed to be visible working on the floor.....

Worst president in history.

Johnson only did it to get their vote. He referred to them as “n@##$%s”

He previously helped destroy Eisenhower’s Civil Rights bill.

It wasn’t until he realized “There’s more of them voting percentage wise, than white folks”, that he came up with his own 'N#%%a Bill'.

A year later, he passed his immigration bill, that brought in foreigners from third world countries, to vote Democrat and compete for jobs with the Blacks before they ever had a chance to gain a foothold in the economy.

His ‘great society’ program seeded low income housing, AKA Democrat voter storage units, in cities across the nation, and caused the rate of violent crime to more than double within a few years.

He got us into the Vietnam war, that cost the lives of nearly 60,000 Americans, wounded hundreds of thousands more, and killed more than two million Vietnamese, before Nixon ended it.

"History has viewed Johnson both through the lens of his historic legislative achievements, and his lack of success in the Vietnam War. His overall rating among historians has remained relatively steady over the past 35 years, and his average ranking is higher than any of the eight presidents who followed him, although similar to Reagan and Clinton"

I support all these, also I support the Vietnam War so unlike many I dont hold that as a negative to weigh against them.

As for videos of him saying racial slurs in private conversation, its sad, but its the 1960s, and he did more to help blacks that anyone since Lincoln (that is actually a true statement, not what Trump said). He was also not afraid of dealing harsly (with the military) of riots in the 1960s while having progressive social policies which I also support.

The clip you post where he uses the N-word, he is discussing the future voting rights act which he eventually chanpions. The voting rights act ban literacy tests (which some conservatives on here would like to see back) along with poll taxes... Also, allowing for federal regulators to make sure states where administering elections properly.. So yes his language was sad, he opened up democracy to millions more with that act.....

There is almost nothing President Johnson did that I disagree with other than a few phone clips where he uses unfortunate language, but its the 1960s... Generally he is regarded as a great beacon of social progress.


Calling him the worst President in history is not accurate by any metric. Anyone want to bet if Trump will be in the top 12 Presidents after the next ranking? Or even be ranked better than Johnson Of course he won't be..... And, remeber Johnson accomplished all of this after becoming President unexpectedly, pretty impressive.

Calling him "the worst" is a stretch. His presidency was a failure though. He moved a lot of paper to be sure. But he creates a permanent, multi-generational poverty class. He created structural deficits for the first time and they have lasted until today. Vietnam was a disaster no matter how you look at it.
