Al Sharpton hasn't been relevant in years. Pick a different boogeyman.

This is me, every time I hear a con say, "name me one lie Trump has ever told."

For the third time, that was not what trump said. See post #557. You really ought to apologize for using the dishonest tactic of shoving words into someone's mouth. This is not only dishonest, it tends to infuriate the very people you are trying to persuade.

On Wednesday, former Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke, entrepreneur Andrew Yang and former Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Julian Castro address the network's national convention in New York City. On Thursday, it's former Maryland Rep. John Delaney and South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg's turn. And on Friday, it's the fleet of six senators: Kamala Harris of California, Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, Bernie Sanders of Vermont, Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota and Cory Booker of New Jersey are all scheduled for speeches. Former Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper is also on Friday's itinerary.
Three 2020 candidates not on the agenda: Rep. Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii, author Marianne Williamson and Washington Gov. Jay Inslee.
Not relevant? Huh?

The people you mention have zero to do with being Jewish and everything to do with being actors.

No shift is underway....

So zero evidence. I figured as much.

OMG. I didn't hear about this. These Democratic candidates should have nothing to do with that anti-Semite, given his past anti-Jew remarks. Unbelievable. What's even more unbelievable is that if a Jew, say for example, me, were to criticize that, liberals would crawl out of the woodwork to condemn the Jew for "playing the victim."

On a related note, though, I heard that one of the candidates said he wouldn't rule out meeting with Farrakhan. (I believe it was Corey Booker.) And that's after he called Jews "termites."

Horrifying what is happening in the Democratic Party.

Why Republicans are giving the red carpet to my faith? I thought you guys hate affirmative action.
Huh? What does affirmative action have to do with antisemitism? Think before you type. And what do you mean by "brought the Jewish vote"?

Will Jewish people walk away from their support for Democratic Party?
Because Trump is trying to shame them into supporting GOP? I am afraid his taunts will have the opposite effect.

I agree, it needs to be taken much more seriously. It's a big reason why I'm no longer a Democratic party member. Sharpton once said: "If Jews want to get it on, tell them to pin their yarmulkes back and come over...." and it's like oh well, whatever.

Since 99.9% of the people who use the term, say it to mean Anti-Jew, I’m going to go out on a limb here and say, that is what she probably meant.
