There were idiots here who were defending her despite being proven a fraud.

Yup, and I don't care if they're D or R, they need to stop. They're not fooling anyone. (are they? )

It is nice that you agree with me.

However, I don't see how someone's identity gives more or less credibility to the message of making something better for oneself. Sure Trump was born to rich parents, but he built himself up into something bigger than his parents.

It seems to me that notion of improving one's economic outlook for oneself by taking control is either a good notion or it isn't. It doesn't matter the identity of who says it. I don't get the whole identity politics that the exact same philosophies are better or worse depending on the identity.

Wouldn't you be offended if I said the notion of bettering your economic situation by taking control had less credibility, because a poor person said it?

Give the girl a chance, she is very young and has more on the ball than most of her contemporaries who have been on the job for years and years. She ain't going anywhere but up.
Give her a chance to do what? Destroy the economy? Her ideas are stupid.

She should get a ROOM with Hillary, as they are both very annoying..

Okay, you are finding Democrats that are being very patronizing towards Blacks. If the goal is to get more Blacks to vote Republican, it won't work.
