[Copper]

BLM isn’t all bad.

To be clear, he’s the leader of BLM Rhode Island.

Founding that seems like a fundraising grift to me.

Based on the population of Rhode Island, it's safe to say BLM stands for Black Life Matters.

I know, right?

If you really thought your life mattered, you wouldn't FAFO with cops.

"This is what I've seen, at the barber shop".

lol. Yeah, I bet he hangs out there all the time.

This is the same Fox News guy that blamed Obama for Jeffrey Epstein's 2008 plea deal, which might demonstrate a somewhat tenuous grasp of the electoral, as well as the legal process.

Remember when I said watch all the Trumpers start saying “BLM isn’t all that bad?”

[Horace]

I see no irony in this. It's long been a mainstream culture war idea that BLM doesn't care about black lives, and if they were to live up to their name, they would be conservative in some political areas.

I suspect the irony is in Trump referring to Mark Fisher as “a great guy”.

He also once referred to Kim Il Jong as “a great leader”:

"I think you will have a tremendous future for your country, you're a great leader," Trump added. "We will help it to happen."
The president also said his relationship with Kim is a "really a good one."

Trump is somewhat profligate in his use of the adjective “great” in both cases. It comes across as rather disingenuous which, of course we know, he is.

How about the fact that he has previously referred to BLM as “thugs” and “terrorists”. So he is proud to have their support? People he thinks are thugs and terrorists?

I am assuming he would admit that this chapter is not like the others.

There's a black guy voting for Trump. This could really tip the balance here in Rhode Island.

The black support for Biden is waning.

Bigly.

Biden's not exactly inspiring even on his good days. I wouldn't be too unhappy with a reasonable Republican in charge.

But that's not who he's up against.

Such as...?

Surely not someone whose wife has dancing ponies, or puts his dog on the roof of his car?

Could be worse, I suppose. He could be eating dogs, you know.

Romney was fine as governor of Massachusetts.

Pretty much anybody would be an improvement on Trump.

Curious how big it is, I searched for their 990 but they don’t seem to have filed one, at least Pro Publica can’t find it.

They do have a tax ID though.

Apparently the guy moved to Maryland some time ago.
