I am beginning to doubt if Trump ever made this statement. I watched much of the Republican debate yesterday and not a single question was fielded along that line. It is highly dubious that a blatantly reckless statement of this magnitude would be uttered and the media would let it go without belaboring it. Having said that, and in agreement with Ken Harrow, Trump has said worse things in the past; and even if he did say this, as I noted earlier, he only said in the open what many are saying behind their closed doors - even those purporting to be liberals, but too pretentious, for the sake of politics and political correctness, to show their true colors.

Again, where is the proof that Presidential Candidate, Mr. Donald Trump said these awful and stereotypical things about Africans or "some Africans" that have been credited to him? Is there any video or audio clip of him (that is, his actual voice) saying those things? Without such evidence, I will not buy the story.--

--Jesus loves him this I know (cause the Bible tells me so) the rest of you can hate him as much as you like - I don't – in fact I think that he is a very honest, truthful and charming man and that Justice and truth is not bettered served by deliberately misquoting and further maligning Mr. TrumpWhat he actually said was "SOME AFRICANS" and I'm 100% certain that Ben Carson the African- American neurosurgeon – unlike Marcus Garvey - has said even more extraordinary things about his own race…Donald Trump was probably hinting at social welfare parasitism: "Some Africans are lazy fools only good at eating, lovemaking and Stealing"Now why aim at Africans in particular? What does a presidential hopeful gain by attacking any of the minorities in the US?I would say that since the centuries of slavery, colonisation and missionary activities such an image of Africans of "the dark continent" still lingers in the popular Western imagination – just like the image of the Mexican - since the days when Texas was part of Mexico - has been projected through American Western movies & Spaghetti Italian Cowboy movies the past 100 years: the sleepy Mexican, his sombrero on, taking umbrage under a leafy tree and we can take it as for granted that when he speaks like this Trumpo is not soliciting any votes from Mexico or Pan-Africano.Of course it would be politically unwise - indeed suicidal for a candidate for the presidency of any African country to say exactly what Mr. Trump said – since it would not be interpreted as inspiration for even the lazy, hungry, unenterprising Africans - and as to the stealing (corruption) who is there here among us to deny that it's a specialisation of some Africans?The repair man came to fix the radiator today – they always do soon after the clocks roll back from winter to summer time – and indeed the nuclear winter will soon be here, I can already smell it in the air. I quoted what Mr. Trump said and he smiled (repair-man at least for honesty and politeness' sake was on my side) - asked me whether I would be home tomorrow – and I told him that the house negro is always home – he smiled - and said house negro, as "Mr. Butler" - and I almost told him no, like the Negro in the White House, the house that Ben Carson wants to take over…Sincerely said,Cornelius

I do not believe trump uttered such a opinion. I will only believe it when I hear it come out of his mouth. I do not want to believe it because I do not believe that trump can be so dumb to the level of his making such a dumb statement. I do not believe he said it because he also said - he would like Oprah as his running mate. His "the apprentice" show was made into a success by Omarosa - a black lady who was on the first episode of the apprentice.
Trump is crazy but I do not believe he is that crazy as to make such a stupid statement. I actually believe that the statement is the thought of the liberal propagandist by the name of Christine Mendoza who in her attempt to make trump look bad to the black voters is trying to present him in the worst ways possible.
Thanks,Tajudeen Raji

Menu TRUMP: AFRICANS ARE LAZY, ONLY GOOD AT LOVEMAKING AND EATING Posted by other Follow Us By Christine Mendoza Once again, US business magnate Donald Trump has expressed his deep disgust for Africans by referring to them as lazy fools only good at eating, lovemaking and thuggery. Speaking in Indianapolis, Trump who is also the republican Presidential torch bearer reiterated his promise to deport Africans especially those of Kenyan origin including their son Barrack Obama. "African Americans are very lazy. The best they can do is gallivanting around ghettoes, lamenting how they are discriminated. These are the people America doesn't need. They are the enemies of progress. Look at African countries like Kenya for instance, those people are stealing from their own government and go to invest the money in foreign countries. From the government to opposition, they only qualify to be used as a case study whenever bad examples are required. How do you trust even those who have ran away to hide here at the United States hiding behind education? I hear they abuse me in their blogs but I don't care because even the internet they are using is ours and we can decide to switch it off from this side. These are people who import everything including matchsticks. In my opinion, most of these African countries ought to be recolonized again for another 100 years because they know nothing about leadership and self governance" Explained Donald Trump bitterly as he illuminated how he plans to reconstruct America and restore its lost glory. "I promise to make America great again by restoring our dignity that we have since lost through Obama. The more reason why I still believe that he, and his Kenyan brothers and sisters should be deported back to Kenya to make America safe" Source: politics.co.ke You might also like AMBER ROSE STRIPS TOTALLY NAKED FOR GQ AND CURSES OUT THE MAGAZINE NUDE PHOTOS OF MISS ZIMBABWE FORCED HER TO RESIGN HER CROWN "I Married a Prostitute from Back Home" AFRICAN SHOT DEAD AT FEDERAL BUILDING, NEW YORK CITY 10 Jokes From President Barack Obama (LOLWOT LISTS) Recommended by Follow Us October 26, 2015Leave a reply « Previous Leave a Reply View Full Site Proudly powered by WordPress
