Al Sharpton Rails Against Rappers ‘Seduced by Trump’: ‘He Called For the Death Penalty of Five Innocent Young Black’ Men
Sharpton railed against rappers who have been "seduced" by Trump on MSNBC, Tuesday after several hip hop stars expressed solidarity with Trump over his arrest.

I don't always agree with Al Sharpton, but he's right. Man is so racist he paid for newspaper ads saying the Central Park Five should get the death penalty. Just saying it wasn't good enough, he had to pay to get that message out to a wider audience. That's next level hate. He'd throw these rappers under the bus in a heartbeat. Or pay someone else to do it.
Not only that, but even after they were exonerated Trump hasn't moved from that position. He would literally prefer to execute innocents over admitting he was wrong once.
He also claimed for years that Obama wasn't a real American because he was born in Kenya.
Man is racist AF, but knows how to dog whistle.
Those aren't dog whistles. They're bull horns. Racists used to dog whistle. They stopped that at least 7 years ago.
Oh, don't get me wrong: it is to you and me.
All conservatives need though is the thinnest sheen of plausible deniability. His MO is making that deniability as close to the line as possible (with both his racism and illegal activities).
The GOP rubes just need an excuse; it doesn't much matter how transparent it is to outsiders.
Maybe 'dog whistle' is the wrong name for it? Either way, providing excuses for racists to claim they're not is a particular specialty of his.
Trump basically had a decade long temper tantrum because an uppity Black guy became president. Prior he just did TV and occasionally showed up to WWE. That's how racist he is.
Wasn't he outed by hos niece or something. Could be someone else, but I remember reading he was pretty casually dropping all the race slurs at the dinner table.
Dude is racist AF, it is not that hard to figure out just by the surnames he gives people.
To the best of our knowledge, his father never renounced his affiliation with the KKK.
