I think this sums up who the real racist are here. For the first time in years the black and hispanic UE are Lower and here's what the members of the black caucus are doing,playing games on their phones. I hope the people in their districts take note and vote these losers out! Sad because Obama had 8 years to do this for minorities yet it took an old white racist <sarcasm> to do it within a year.

The congresswoman playing her phone game was identified as Rep. Brenda Lawrence (D-Michigan) by at least one media outlet — the Daily Mail. , which ID’d the other two women as Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-New Jersey) and Rep. Joyce Beatty (D-Ohio).

CBC members sat mostly stone-faced during the president’s speech on Tuesday offering little applause, even when Trump touted historically low unemployment numbers for black Americans.

Sadly, their constituents will continue to vote in identity politic candidates, i.e. candidates that are based on race/gender/sexual orientation and how loud they will decry racism and how the system is supposedly unfair.

I don't know if I'd call that racist - but they certainly don't represent their constituents very well and I say that for any elected official despite the party that would do something like this while attending the State of the Union. Although I despise those who chose not to attend because I think they're being childish this is even worse.

You pay respect to the office - not to the person holding that office and being you're being paid on my dime - you better darn well attend each and any meeting, gala or official televised program and not look like a petulant 2 yr old that isn't getting his way.

When they are playing on their phones, but they are supposed to be at the speech, like its part of their job, well they are acting like bad employees. They are supposed to work for us, we the people.


Secondly, this just outs them as rotten people. And rotten employees. it's as if they are inadvertently auditioning for a job, as they might be in danger of losing their job, come election time.


Their horrid attitude and actions outed them as rotten.

Sadly, you're probably right.

The only reason I said that is because from day one the left has been hell bent on calling Trump a racist. It's just ironic that an old white dude did what a younger AA president couldn't.

We see it with DACA and we see it with Black Americans. Democrats do not care about them at all. They feed them lies to get their vote, relying on the ignorance of the voting population.

Unless a person is stupid as hell, the older one gets the more conservative they become, as the experiences of life and seeing governments evil first hand.

At least they showed up to the speech unlike Maxine Waters that skipped it.

If these people really want to make a difference to their constituents then they need to get of their hands and phones and start taking action. They also need to to stop buying into the anti Trump drivel that their party is spewing at all of us.


Trump is not a racist. He doesn't care what colour your skin is but he wants you to be the best you an be while obeying our laws and contributing to our society for a stronger America.
Lazy criminal bums and people that are here illegally need not apply to Trump's America.

What Trump is wants for America and its people is pretty simple and will benefit all it's legal citizens yet the Dems call him the enemy.

The Dems don't want the beneficial change that Trump is offering and one has to wonder why?

there is a certain twisted logic to that. if the leftoids are going to insist everything is racist, we can try accommodating them

you mean wouldnt do dont you? obama could have done the same things trump is doing now, but he wouldnt do them. in the end it isnt about racism, and never has been. its about power, and the democrats and the washington elite want all they can garner to the detriment of the people. perhaps one day they will realize that we send them to washington to SERVE the people.
