Agreed. They're not racist, they're just democrats. Overall, they're a very good organization.

As such, Republican presidents haven't been dumb enough to walk into that trap.

the NAACP is political arm of the democrat party, why should Trump go?........that's like asking Obama to speak at the NRA convention.

No surprise. Trump only goes and speaks at places which will be filled with adoring fans.

Trump is busy that day, he will be washing Jeff Session's Grand Wizard cloak and hood.

Trump declines invitation to speak at NAACP convention






I think the thought of blacks making something of themselves sickens him not does he believe in it.


And he knows the press will pounce on him for saying something stupid. Which he would and they will.
They just want a chance to beat up on him. What did Romney get out of it other than ridicule? He needs to go over the head of these self-appointed black representatives and talk to blacks directly.

He claims shoddy work, of course, even though the electricians won a national award for the work they did and it didn't seem to impact the grand opening or the continued operation.

Obama got millions of people, blacks included back to work.

There are no blacks working at a Trump hotel, resort, golf resort, winery, construction site? The unemployment rate went UP under Barack. The only blacks that got jobs under him were Loretta Lynch and Eric Holder and they already had jobs elsewhere before he was elected.

Of course. It interferes with his Twitter posting schedule.
