Mad Maxine: Trump, Supporters, Making Sure Blacks ‘Do Not Rise To Any Level Of Influence And Power’
Except for the odd secretary of Housing and Urban Development and suchlike, but no need to acknowledge reality.
[THEGATEWAYPUNDIT] Rep. The Ageless and Downright Brilliant Comrade Maxine Impeach 45! Waters
...U.S. Representative for California's 43rd congressional district, serving since 1991, a total of 28.61820 years. A member of the Democratic Party, she is the most senior of the twelve black women currently serving in the United States Congress, and a member and former chair of the Congressional Black Caucus. Before becoming a member of Congress she served in the California Assembly, to which she was first elected back when Disco was in flower, in 1976, which would make it 43.61615 years. She has been a politician for virtually all her adult life. If she was a little brighter she'd be a Communist...
(D-CA) said on Sunday that President Trump and his supporters are all racist and are actively working to keep black people down.

Trump and his base "believe that it is their right and their responsibility to ensure that blacks and people of color and others do not rise to any level of influence and power, significant that would cause them not to be in total charge of the country," Waters said on MSNBC’s "AM Joy."

The Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, Democrat did not mention the fact that the last U.S. president, Barack Obama
I inhaled. That was the point...
, was black, and that he won easily in two elections.

Waters also said the U.S. "justice system is broken," adding that for black people, "it has never really been in our favor, and it has basically been responsible for ensuring that we could never ever get beyond this suppression and this oppression that has been forced upon us for so many years."

"So those who criticize Black Lives Matter, they can continue to do that, but I want to tell you the time has come now where we are joined by so many others who really were not there for us in the past." Waters continued.

The 80-year-old career politician said that racism is the cause of most social problems in America.

"You saw it in all of the protests where you had whites and blacks and Asians and old and young, all saying something is wrong with this country. Something is wrong with our criminal justice system. Something is wrong with our policing," Waters said. "It is racism."

#4 "it has never really been in our favor,

And there you have the crux of the situation.

People like her don't want a fair and equitable justice system. They want the deck stacked in their favor.

#5 Max, it's folk like you that keep blacks from political influence. Rational people look at you and think, "Is this the best they've got"?

#6 Ref #4: it has never really been in our favor,
And there you have the crux of the situation.


As has been said here many times; much evidence for this can be found in the manning of corporate HR departments and Gov't Civilian Personnel Offices. Check the senior leadership. Walk in, take a look around, then decide. There is a method to the madness, has been for decades now.

#7 Except for the odd secretary of Housing and Urban Development and suchlike,

...and they'll just dismiss stuff like that as 'tokenism'. You just can't win with these people, so make sure they lose.

#9 Yeah, and how come hi e didn't fix all those influence and power problems? Didn't Congress dance to his tune? At least for a few years?

#10 Her district is a cesspool of street level drug dealers. People like her is who they elect.
