As I recall, Walker was quite the media sensation back in the day. Trump made a point of being seen with people who were guaranteed to get him on Page 6.
This was around the same time that Trump was fighting that housing discrimination lawsuit.
What better way to try to sway public opinion than to find a black “friend?”
No different than how he’s using Kanye now.
I responded to your claim in the convention thread that “Trump hates Black people”. I asked you to explain the awards he’s received from various groups for his work with the black community. I’m still awaiting your reply, and I’m hopeful you can build a theory less idiotic than “Trump made friends with Black people 37 years ago to help his career”.

Wow, nobody better at stretching bread than you are! Geez. I guess this means you think Walker is too dumb to realize he has been used for 37 years, or you are admitting the Trump is such a mastermind and smart that he was able to fool someone for that long?

Looks like we found a real racist in the conversation here right? Of course Walker must be dumb for befriending Trump.

I think it’s probably a little racist to assume a black man is dumb enough to spend 37 years in a friendship with a man who “hates” him, which is the case according to Tigerlily.

I am thinking brain damage from playing in the sport is what he has.

Posts and assumptions like this about Trump always make me laugh. How dare he be friends with someone to be...friends.

If what you said was true, why not dump Walker by now? With all due respect to him, he's not much of a media sensation today and certainly isn't in the headlines. Regardless of his football stats, no one thinks of Walker on a daily basis. So if Trump was using him back in the day, why still be friends with him now?

Nothing makes white people on the left seethe with hate like seeing a black person that supports the Republican party.

You wanna see real racism?

Pop on over to twitter and search for the names of any of the black speakers from last night.

The amount of black people who are calling those black leaders disgusting racist names is shocking.
