John Legend pulled no punches when asked to comment on President Donald Trump and his recent racist attacks on Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.) and the city of Baltimore.
..........................
Our president is a flaming racist. Hes a piece of shit. He says piece of shit, shit all the time. Thats what he does, said Legend. We need to get him out of office.
Asked what could be done to help Baltimore, which Trump over the weekend tweeted was a disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess, Legend responded:
Theres a lot that can be done, its got over a century of history that created the problems that they have, and we need to focus on making all of our communities better instead of talking shit about our communities just because youre a racist prick.
Donald Trump is an evil fucking canker sore on Americas whole landscape, so we need to get him out of office, Legend continued.

(10,192 posts)Yes he is.
But he was created by the American filthy rich Capitalist Kings. They created him in their own image to represent America for them; to control Americans for them; to abuse Americans for them and to funnel our national wealth to them.
Just look at Trump and his wife. He's fat, ugly, a bad dresser, bald, too old to be under so much stress, has a peculiar coloration in his face with a strange lurching walk. He has absolutely no morals, a psychopath with a pension for abusing women and little girls. He is a bigot and a racist and does not know anything about government. He is a criminal and a lover of other criminals. He doesn't believe in all men being created equal nor in democracy. He is a traitor and a con. His wife is a Slovenian Sex worker, with no educational achievement, a selfish gold digger who probobly has something on him. If you would meet them on the street, within 5 seconds you would realize how peculiar and unlikable they are. And yet somehow a lot of Americans couldn't figure this out and voted for him.
This is what Bill Gates, The Koch bros, the Waltons, the google billionaires and all the richest Americans either funded directly or enabled. This is what they wanted or allowed to come to power.

All the talk this morning is how the loser of last nights debate was Barack Obama.
Gee, why arent they throwing in lets-best-up-on-Hillary-some-more for good measure?

(82,849 posts)Let the candidates talk about how they're going to do better than Trump has. The media, as heavily invested as they are in their "Democrats in Disarray!" narrative, are not equipped to do nuance or shades of this or degrees of that, but they'd certainly jump on any Democrat who said anything like what Legend said.
