Bill Maher shuts down Cornel West's stupidity equating Trump and Hillary

[Stone Cold]

I take it you voted for Trump.

All that research and Im surprised you didnt know i voted for Jill Stein

 

[Pure Water]

Bernie lost to Hillary.

But but but he would have won against Trump.

I do think he may have had a better shot. I think he could have won PA and WV over her.

obama's policies did help black americans. you take for granted how conservative obstructionism and spite towards obama (both in public and private sector) were a constant roadblock. it's like you dudes have no foresight to accept how things can, will, and already are becoming worse under the trump admin than they would have been with clinton.

if you want to focus only on militarization of police you might have a point. it's one piece of a complicated puzzle.

you conveniently overlook trumps tax plans, policy shift on sentencing and law enforcement, influence on the courts, cutting funding to domestic programs essential to blacks, stance on healthcare, environment, the list goes on. this whole "they're the same" argument is so intellectually dishonest it's ridiculous we're even having this discussion.

Obama was president had a democratic senate and house stop making excuses for him when he told black americans he isn't our president and he isn't here for u.
Nothing complicated at all about Obama's bullshyt, he was part of the system.
LOL tax plans I don't mind less taxes honestly, I like to keep more of my money
policy shift on sentencing, that is done via congress, why didn't obama and the dems push through law changes for sentencing instead of doing nothing
Influence on courts, yeah like Kagen and judges who think its okay to steal property from poor citizens in the benefit of corporations right?
Or judges who thinks its okay to make people pay for services they don't want to big businesses rightt.
Judges who say its okay to spy on americans w and kill citizens without charge
Judges who say its okay to invade other countries without a declaration of war
judges who say its okay to forcibly take private property like private dna databases and use it to fish for crime?
aint no domestic program in this country essential for blacks, dependence on white government isn't good for black americans
Obamacare back door government handout aint great for blacks, life expectancy dropped under it
environment? The same epa that obama was over than allowed flint to happen? that allowed the deepwater incident to happen?

They are the same, you are just so simple and caught in the "dumb american" red/blue team dynamic that you ignore it.

^better analysis

And let's just say hypothetically she was "more liberal than Obama" ...he wasn't running against her this time. Was she more liberal than Bernie too ?

Even if she was, so she's more liberal than Barack "30 years ago I would have been a Republican" Obama... So fukking what

fukk all these people

"It's okay to normalize and give a pass to the atrocities of Democratic presidents because Republicans are much worse."

Gotta love it

Pretty much this

You're advocating not voting. But you want crumbs?

So politicians only represent people who vote That's news to me

All that research and Im surprised you didnt know i voted for Jill Stein

What particularly inspired you to vote for Stein? What specific policies did you find yourself drawn to? Did you believe she had a chance to actually win? If not, what value do you think that vote served in order to meet your interest?

Democrats do not have the best interest of black folks. There entire ideals is based on a bullshyt lift all boats strategy that will have us perpetually at the bottom of society.

Democrats don't even support reparations on moral ground fukk ALL OF THEM

Do republicans have the best interest for black folks? It's a two party system.

I think there's a chance, but there is really no data to suggest he had a better chance than an already overwhelming favorite that lost.

No they dont.

I don't fukking care. I will not continue to vote for the nice masters.

Talk about righting the wrongs of the last 4-500 years specifically to black folks or you won't get my vote

 

[88m3]

No I didn't

Yeah, you did you disingenuous piece of shyt, right down to defending Trump's policies.

 

[Pressure]

No they dont.

This rhetoric is negative and no self respecting human should run it. You're essentially saying you're giving up, which, ultimately if universalised by blacks would make our life worse.
