  1. Marc Morial need to sit his behind down somewhere. .as corruptive as he was as a New Orleans mayor? How do I know because I'm from New Orleans…

  2. There is a lot wrong with the comparison to MLK here. First, the comparison itself is completely laughable. Comparing a homophobic and Islamophobic conspiracy theorist to MLK is like comparing Jeffrey Dahmer to Greta Thunberg. Secondly, it's a racist dogwhistle. If Trump thinks Mark Robinson is "MLK on steroids" that implies that Robinson is "one of the good ones" to him. It also suggests that his idea of complimenting people of color is to liken them to the few that he likes, implying that they should be more like his twisted idea of those people are to appeal to him. Third, if Trump really does think MLK is anything like how Robinson is reported as being, that is inherently defamatory, and given that he's already got the situation with E Jean Carroll to contend with, you'd think another defamation suit is the last thing he'd want at this point. And lastly, if Mark Robinson, based on his history, is like MLK in Trump's eyes, then that is revealing as to what he thinks a likeable black person is: someone who bends the knee to racist dirtbags like him and isn't "woke," so to speak. In short, Trump's comments about Robinson are laughably misinformed at best, and an instance of racist gaslighting at worst. But hey, Trump being racist garbage is nothing new. This is the same guy who in 2020, talked about how great white nationalists were on national TV after all.

  3. 100 years of tradition which our 4 fathers built..,.if Trump is elected this will be gone… don't allow this to happen… Martin Luther King died for us..vote Biden 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

  4. Black people better wake up , if it wasn’t for Martin Luther king jr , he would t be able to say the shxt he says and he’s demeaning every women
    In his family especially his mother and grandmother who I’m sure had to fight and lived during the time when black women had little rights , a vote for him would be a big set back for black people especially black women , he doesn’t want women to be in control of their OWN BODIES!! GET OUT AND VOTE! NORTH CAROLINA!!!

  5. People need to understand at Trump's age there is a tendency to misspeak or get confused easily. I think what Trump meant to say is that Robinson is on Ozempic (Not steroids) as he is twice the size of MLK (Not twice the man)….Simple mistake

  7. Remember: Voting for a third party or staying home is a vote for a WANNABE DICTATOR Trump and his EXTREME MAGA LIEUTENANTS and the Project 2025 which sims to destroy our democracy and take away our constitutional rights to vote to take and STAY in power ! ✅👍

  8. It’s a damn shame that DT Rump is such a BIGOT in the 21st century. Growing up in Louisiana, we had Nanny’s and best friends and some family that was of black heritage. We all cared for one another. How can anyone of Rump’s family be so negative towards people they have no idea about! He’s a Racist and an Insurrectionist, please don’t forget about this when you go to Vote Blue to save our Democracy from the likes of these absurd people!!! God bless and protect all of those God loving people who know your Scriptures and believe in you, Holy Lord, Almighty YaHe’, Amen. We shall overcome!♥️💜🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🥰🌈

  9. MLK wanted a man to be judged by his charactor instead of his skin color!!!!!! That is so 1960s. Todays Demonrat judge a man by color, color, color!!!!!

  10. Rom 3:23
    For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

    Rom 6:23
    For the wages of sin is death;

    Psalms 9:17
    The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.

    Acts 8:37
    And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.

    Rom 10:9
    That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

    Corinthians 15:3-4
    For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

    Ephesians 2:8-9
    For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.

  11. The GOP'S secret plan is to get Trump back in office and then let his V.P. pick Tucker Carlson take over as President.

    We would all get a big laugh until Tucker names Speaker Johnson as his V.P. They will then replace the USA Flag with a Templar Cross on the Captitol.

    Watching 1939 German Rally's will not be much different from going to Trump's next, "Inagural Military Parade." Putin and Kim Jon will be there too!
