    When Obama visited Mt Rushmore it was "majestic" but when Trump goes its a sign of racism.


    Trump Campaign Calls Out CNN, Alleging Mount Rushmore Hypocrisy

    "Fascinating how CNN called Mount Rushmore 'majestic' and 'quite a sight' in 2008 when Obama visited, but now its a symbol of slavery and stolen land"

    The tweet linked to a 2008 transcript of a CNN broadcast where it reported: "Barack Obama is in South Dakota today. He arrived there last night. Take a look at this. He got a good glimpse of the majestic Mount Rushmore."

    And later in the transcript about the then-candidate's visit: "Obama arrived there late last night and got a good look around Mt. Rushmore – it's quite a sight if you haven't seen it."

    Ironic considering Obama never thought much of this country. Neither has his ungrateful wife.

    Two questions:

    What does CNN think the average IQ of their listeners is?

    What is the actual average IQ of CNN viewers?

    The Left has jumped the shark. CNN is a joke creating propaganda for "Useful Idiots".

    It’s not just Rushmore. EVERYTHING is racist now but less than 4 yrs ago NONE of this stuff was.

    It’s why all these people are insane. And it’s mind boggling how quickly corporations are just bowing down and caving to every whim. How media has just gone off the deep end. In 2008 we were a great country for electing Obama. Then he went on his apology tour and the MSM nodded. He insulted police and the MSM defended the police no less. But now? It’s quite scary the future that is being shown to us.

    Time changes the perception of everything.

    Obama was empathetic to the plight of minorities such as American natives while Dopey Donald Trump is a bigot and racist with zero empathy.

    Donald Trump hates native Americans for their perceived weaknesses in allowing themselves to be overwhelmed by invaders.

    The public perception of equity and justice for minorities is growing while Trump seeds society with hate.

    No. He was defending Muslims terrorists, illegals, BLM and communists. All of them have enslaved millions of more people than we ever did. Some still do.

    Show me how Trump is seeding society with hate. The left hates cops, whites and Jews, and the list is growing.

    Minorities have Justice. They just don’t like being held accountable for what they do.

    CNN is a laughing stock. Trumps speech was spot on. The left is trying to create social unrest for political gain. Its the last desperate act of a dying political party bereft of ideas or talent.

    Why don’t you tell us where the Indians would be if we never showed up. Show us your intellectual superiority.

    BTW, you gonna tell New Yorkers to give up their property and hand it to the Injuns?

    Handler: President Joe don't press that button.
    Joe: This one? (as he presses the button)
    Handler: (Head down looking sad) yes that one.
    Joe: That's the easy button isn't it?
    Handler: No sir, that was the nuclear football and you just launched all our nuclear missiles at once.
