Firstandonly:maybe because he has 80,000,000+ followers or maybe because he is the president of the United States of America, he should be at least better than the average Twitter user and not post copyrighted materials. How hard can this be? 2 Likes |

habsydiamond: Many of those supporting Trump in Nigeria are bunch of religious bigots, they think he's a christian but in the real sense he is only playing on their stupidity. Americans know what is good for them and come Nov. 2020 they will exercise their franchise. For those supporting him, I pray half of what is happening to black people under Trump happen to your family members wherever they are. 3 Likes |

tianshie: Here we go again with the white privilege bullshit! Trump plays to win the electoral college not the popular vote. You teach undergrads but could write such a thing as shown in the bold? This dangerous rhetoric has no place in a civil discussion, it is the same race baiting crap responsible for the chaos we have in America today. Are you saying just because a white person votes for Trump, he or she is privileged? Just because a white person exists he or she is privileged? I know of many whites that voted for Obama not once but twice and then switched to Trump. You left out the economy, stock markets, people wanting to curb illegal immigration, religious liberties and so on, these issues can and will affect the way a person vote, skin color should not be the sole focus. The choice is between Biden & Trump, it remains to be seen whether Biden can win Iowa, Pennsylvania, Texas, Georgia, Florida, Michigan and Wisconsin. Instead of focusing on white privilege, the focus should be whether Democrats learnt anything from the result of the 2016 presidential elections. Whether Bernie's supporters will galvanize around Biden, whether his choice for Vice president would help him or crush him and whether young people and women of the Democratic base will be as enthusiastic as 2016.....I sincerely doubt it! 3 Likes |

FarahAideed: Stop with your exaggerations. While it is true that black unemployment fell to its lowest during this presidency, it is also true that African Americans had higher incomes prior to the tRump administration. A black household earned median income of $40258 for 2017 is below the $42348 of 2000. And the most dramatic drop in black unemployment came under Obama when it fell from 16.8 % in 2010 to 7.8% in January 2017. And although tRump gave more to HBCUs than any President in history (Obama previously held the record in 2010) he did not "restore" funding to HBCU, merely appropriated more funds. However tRump's proposed steep cuts to higher education will disproportionately affect HBCU students. tRump has also sought to eliminate the strengthening historically black colleges program. tRump honoured ONE of the LAST SURVIVING Tuskegee airmen. However in 2009, OBAMA invited 84 year old Tuskegee airman George Hickman to his inauguration to honour him. OBAMA also invited many of the approximately 330 living Tuskegee airmen to his inauguration, saying that he had stood on the shoulders of men like George to succeed in politics. in 2013, during OBAMA's presidency, Fred T. Johnson, a Tuskegee airman received his honour—a congressional Gold medal. SO tRump WAS NOT FIRST TO DO IT. YOU ARE A LIAR. I don't have time to go through your other blatant exaggerations. Gotta get back to work. 2 Likes |

Why traveling to America for greener pastures if 9ja is ok or what business do we have with them?

Trump only cares about white people,He was elected by white supremacist and he is there to serve white, until you go America yourself and you experience systematic racism you won't fully grasp how deep the problem is. Imagine thinking an entertainment reality TV show personality is worth being a president of any nation.

abbey621: I think it's naive to suppose that white privilege has no place in public discussion, especially in the wake of George Floyd's death. White privilege has always had a space in public discussion. How old are you? When the French lost Haiti to the black population, was it not white privilege (racism) that allowed France to connive with the United States and other countries in Europe to put up a trade blockade that forced Haiti to pay France for Haiti, before Haiti could do business with the world? Black folks who bury their heads in the sand, especially folks who migrate from Nigeria, Africa, who haven't had to deal with systemic racism, whose grandparents hadn't gone to war for America and returned to be denied the benefits afforded white folks who returned from the same war, those black folks are a cancer. You mention people wanting to curb illegal migration. OBAMA was called the deporter-in-chief. Illegal immigration was not a problem. What tRump offered was a hideous kind of finger pointing, going the Ghana-must-Go approach, inciting racial, nationalist sentiments. That sort of rhetoric brings out the worst in people. Remember that Obama is half-white. During his campaign he touted the contributions of his white grandparents to keeping the United States safe. Obama sought to unite the country. He was an intelligent, smooth talker. He represented a grand proof of the American dream. As for the election. We will see. 2 Likes |

tianshie: Another rant that is filled with sentimentla rhetoric! Obama was the deporter in chief but allowed catch and release which meant as they were being deported, they were coming back with full force. You seriously typed that illegal immigration is not a problem in the USA? Did you seioursly type that with a straight face or are you trolling me? Now I never said white privilege is not a problem or that it does not exist but when you associate the way a voter votes with the color of his or her skin then you are spewing trash! My dad has lived in the USA for over 40 years, he faced the civil rights movement of the late 60s to the 80s. Don't tell me about going to war for America, I have 3 veterans in my family, the fact that you can sit there and type shit or assume u=you know a person based off of a few sentences shows YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM WITH AMERICA!

realestniggah:Typical black man, too cowardly to own up to his shortcomings...Obama a black man became president but they will tell you that you can't become who you are because of your skin(tell me any achievement that superceeds the POTUS)..Beyonce, Ben carsen,Oprah (richest black woman) denzel Washington (an Oscar winner) these are just are just a 0.01% sample of the many thousands of black men AND women who has reached the top of their respective career in America YET they will tell you that as a black man you can't achieve your dreams in America because of white supremacy when their very success story rubishes that very claim! How can a successful black woman tell another black woman that she can't make it because of her skin?? Don't you see the outright falsehood in that?? These successful black men and women has seen more money and fame than millions of white Americans in that same America! What a fvcking irony... 3 Likes 1 Share |

abbey621:America has over 20 fvcking million illegal immigrants! 20 fvcking million!! These are the people slashing the bargaining power of legit American citizens, citizens that voted in a government to make their lives better..these immigrants come in and are willing to do a job for half the amount of the real citizens of a country...and you wonder why unemployment increased substantially during the past 8 years?? Even the menial jobs that an a black American with little education could do is being taken by illegal immigrants...the thing is, those companies and employers know this, it is their gain, why would they want to do anything that will remove cheap a.s.s labour from their companies?? Which country can survive with 20 million illegal immigrants jostling for jobs with the legit occupants of the country?? That America hasn't buckled completely to that is my surprise. 1 Like |

Grandmeister: I agree with what you said but the story is deeper, majority of those illegal immigrants pay taxes but are unable to claim social security benefits when they get old because they don't have legal status. This is why when the other person said America does not have an illegal immigration problem, I was STUNNED! It's a very big problem not only for American citizens out of work but the unethical and immoral nature of exploiting these tax paying illegal immigrants and not offering them any help when they get old. It's almost as if the liberal American government of the past wants to eat its cake and have it too! 1 Like |
