Congressional Black Caucus excuses for refusing to meet with Trump are quite hilarious |

[Kanuk Free Press] Warning! This information comes from the Worst Web Site in the World [Politico], which leaves us with a reasonably high possibility that it could all be completely made up, and that the anonymous sources cited could be fictional. I don’t know if I believe the story myself. But we’ll delve into it anyway because it’s consistent with some things we know happened back in the spring, and because the kinds of people cited here seem like the types who would actually talk to said Worst Web Site. Also, it’s hilarious. Apparently President Trump would like to meet with the 50-member Congressional Black Caucus to learn more about the issues that are important to them. Now normally, when the president wants to grant you an audience and hear about your priorities, you’d jump at that opportunity. That assumes, of course, that you’re actually concerned about accomplishing your stated goals. If all you’re concerned about is political posturing, then you might complain to high heaven that the president will never talk to you and doesn’t care about your issues, because he’s a racist or whatever. That usually works great in Washington, but you are going to run into a problem if the president turns out to be quite willing to meet with you and hear your concerns. That will make him look good! You can’t have that. So you have to come up with any excuse you can think of not to go to the meeting, which can require some real creativity. |

#4 Many of Trumps plans would be popular with the African American community if he could get the message through. These life-long Dems know that. Trump needs to find some electable Black candidates to oppose the 50. |

#3 For people who have nothing to their name except "white guilt", they're rather arrogant? |
