He totally has it; Bolsonaro is a paranoid doofus so of course he’s going to lie about having it. Admitting he has it would be admitting weakness and thus it would damage his image. Strongmen can’t afford weakness

Hey, can we get rid of Florida and give Puerto Rico statehood? Just sayin’.

Which brings up Elizabeth Warren, the candidate with the most progressive and Black agenda message in the mix; why not support her instead of Biden? After all, didn’t she go out of her way to court black voters, particularly Black women? Why did she fail to garner any black support? Why didn’t the Black political…

I challenge Black MEN to comfort this little girl. The sistuhs can’t do everything.

Trump was caught on a hot mic before giving his apathetic monologue where he can be heard dropping the presidential “F-bomb” and asking for “white stuff.

Look cognitive dissonance I guess?

It doesn’t fit their “Bernie Sucks” narrative.

I mean I know what I saw. I follow politics closely, so articles like this mean I just can’t trust what the writer is writing ever ‘cause they are clearly lying or woefully naive.

‘they were voting against Hillary Clinton.’

I’m going Independent after this election. The Democrat party is going to be dragged kicking and screaming to the woodshed because of their lack of interest in serving anyone other than Wall Street.

“The Black Leadership class has betrayed us on all levels, otherwise someone like Elizabeth Warren or Julian Castro and Bernie Sanders would be getting the majority of black support if “black interests” was the criteria.”

Damn, didn’t there used to be a way to star articles or something? I also read the Jez article about deifying black people the other day. The 15 minutes combined I spent reading both of these gave a more in-depth, comprehensive view on what happened on Tuesday than the hours of tv and talk radio since. Who knew that…

Great analysis! Will be quoting this!

Nothing to add other than I really dug this analysis. Thanks!

“and what to expect from him.”

And? The cold war is over and only people who haven’t progressed past say 1992 think that using the word as an epithath is anything more than empty-headed name calling.

I know. Sigh. Sometimes, we have to jolt back up and remind ourselves what a stupid country and society we really are. It’s like we can only collectively surprise ourselves by electing one inspirational candidate in our lifetimes.
Let’s prepare for a long succession of meh candidates for at least another generation.

There’s one easy way. By supporting Bloomberg they self identified as part of the problem, so now we know who to vote out. Or keep out if they’re not currently in office.

Bloomberg won American Samoa. I don’t even know where that is.

Wonderful!

Black politics today is a complete mess; with a Black Leadership & Black tv punditry class who don’t give a shit about the black masses. They are sellouts & betrayers of the cause. Michael Bloomberg’s candidacy is proof of it.

Black folk need to abandon the DNC en masse. Not on some Kanye/Candice Owens Blexit bullshit, but we need to divorce ourselves from the Duopoly and strive for political self determination by running our own candidates locally first then nationally.
