That sly smirk, the eyes beaming at Trump with a little glint, the gentle head nods.


He's SOOO creepy! And he's like this every time he's with Trump.

Be assured his base is outraged, and he will go back to 100% racist ASAP. Probably later today before he goes to bed.

DR. Ben Carson may not be qualified for the position he holds, but he is certainly no "Stepin Fetchit."

A few years ago I had reason to spend some time at Detroit Children's Hospital, and it was the first time I realized how esteemed he really is. IIRC, there were multiple tributes to him in that area. He overcame a lot to achieve what he did, and I would never demean him in such a way.

...He may be a gifted surgeon who's done some good things in his life but as far as I'm concerned, that doesn't excuse him from acting like a boot-licking Uncle Tom who allows himself to be used as a prop by the evil, crooked racist who currently resides at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

When he summons up the balls to call Chump out for his "shithole" comments, maybe I'll change my mind but until then, fuck him.

But it has gone far past the 'reality' format into scripted fiction everyday.
