I find it interesting that the right regularly cites that liberals expect equal outcomes.

The right regularly expects equal beginnings. It's like they think everybody had the same parents and upbringing.

Al this talk of lazy assed blacks is getting tiresome.

You attain wealth by working. Not by being on welfare. The longer one is raised on welfare the greater the chance the kids will receive welfare.

The only thing government can and should do is not entice bad behavior. Like offering "welfare for life" vs allowing the free market to make jobs available.
Growing up and relying on welfare is a learned behavior. Not that you're saying one way or the other.

Not expect equal outcomes force equal outcomes. THAT is what the left does.

What's tiresome is you making things up.
It's about equal opportunity for the right and nothing to do with expecting equal beginnings. Silly statement on your part.

It's about being raised on welfare and in a single parent family which welfare itself causes. The dependence on government.

The poor are bought with welfare. If the birth mother lives with the birth father they live off of his money. If they live apart the mother gets government aid and also gets child support from the father. The children don't get the guidance they need. We've seen the single parenthood rate sky rocket with all races and we know those children make less money, are less educated, and commit crime at much higher rates.

When 70% of black children are raised in a single parent family of course there are going to be problems in the black community. Nothing to do with skin color and everything to do with not being raised properly.

What would we expect from the party of division. All policies enacted will be based on melanin content.

Possibly, but what I see is more along the lines of more poor policy that gave us the 2008 recession.

Conservatives should have learned from liberals in 2016 that "the other guy is racist" is not a substitute for a policy platform.
The difference is DJT’s approach is bottom-up, as in black communities creating jobs and strengthening their small business base. Ol’ Joe’s approach is top-down where some pin-head academics who couldn’t run a lemonade stand tell black people they are owed because...raaaycissm. Looking forward to this **** show.

It's not a DJT approach,.it's a Republican Approach. And is why I lean that way even if I loathe the man.



Give you the tools to get out,...that's up to you. You feel better and stand with dignity.
As opposed to just be coddled and handed an allowance just often enough to shut you up and stay in your lane.

Gonna fight systemic racism by importing as many illegals as possible to keep wages at the bottom and compete against low income people of color.

And hopefully get citizenship for those already here.

Makes perfect sense.

Biden and the Democrats are only interested in importing foreigners whom will mostly vote Democrat. They don't care that illegals keep wages down and compete for jobs against Americans whether they be so-called people of color or not. They think they all will just be happy diluting the white race in our country so that minorities will become the majority and that they will join hands and sing cumbaya while living their third world existence in our country while the ruling white elite just laugh at their stupidity in their ivory towers.
