What blacks can learn from the Trump presidency thus far

[Micky Mikey]

1.) There are no codes of conduct when you've already won and have power. All the talk of operating from a higher moral ground is a lie
2.) Once the opportunity arises, seize power, and seize it absolutely and unapologetically. You must stir so much chaos that it will exhaust your adversaries. The chaos you create must be used as a smokescreen to mask your true intent.

These are two traits that the Trump regime has mastered.


In the blueprint for black power this must be recognized. When the time arises power must be seized unapologetically and with ruthlessness.

Pretty much. Same thing GWB/Chaney did...they were doing so much crazy shyt, no one could keep up

Exactly. I was a child back then but, I remember the constant terror alerts that would keep everyone in perpetual fear. This was just another tactic to legitimize two pointless wars.

I have a feeling the Trump presidency will be similar if not 10x worse.

what can trump exactly do to black america nothing, black americans are not more immigrants than white america. so he himself is the son of immigrants, so basically i think black america will suffer just the same as white america with section 8 and etc.

all the other shyt he thinks will make "america great again" i dont know will see, i just want to know what his going to do to follow up his chicago threat and then hopefully if its successful go arounf the unified states worst offenders and clean the place up for USA.

All in all: Never give up, that's my motto going into this.

For good or for bad Trump is willing to be the scumbag businessman Obama could never be. Trump is talking about renegotiating prescription prices. Do I believe any good will come from this? No. But he's so erratic with his populist policies that you never know.

But I do know that Obama never tried to punish the GOP for their gridlock policies, I do know that he always thought he could negotiate from the middle ground as if the republicans were decent rational people, I do know that Obama never made the GOP pay for stealing the supreme court seat.

What can black people learn?
If we want a seat at the table, on even ground, we must act as if we're fighting for dominance or even survival. Our current fractured peaceful coexistence policies won't work in the long term.
