No primary battle (as far as I know) but there's a pretty good chance he'll lose his seat to the Republican...and that's partly why you see the Trump butt kissing.


Hopefully Republicans are dumb enough to elect the guy that actually got coal miners killed.

But it's just stupid politics. Joe Manchin and Heidi Heidkempt need to come out and say why they're confirming Pompeo, a man who won't have the approval from the foreign relations committee. If they think he's qualified or believe having someone they disagree with as secretary of state is better than leaving the position vacant then say it.

If they're doing it for political reasons then they are **** morons. Red state voters won't give a **** who they confirmed. Republicans are still going to run attack ads on them. Independents like dckingsfan aren't going to give them any credit for being bipartisan. Without an explanation what it does do is diminish excitement in Democratic districts where voter turnout will decide elections.

Yes, he's getting primaried, and he's going to get destroyed. And guess what, that person is a left leaning progressive.

Meely mouthed, middle-of-the-road centrist scumbags like Manchin are what's wrong with the Democratic Party.

LOL the word on the streets is that Candace Owens is a plant. She's getting paid a ton of money from through gofundmes, speaking tours, etc. Many of the alt-right thinks she's a fraud who's just doing it for money.

Not surprised STD likes her though. He'll be finding a new coattail to ride very soon. :laugh:

Think about what you're saying.

Basically millions of black and Brown people are "asleep" because they support the Democratic Party/Progressive policies while this small segment of minorities are "woke".

Sure, black/Brown conservatives exist but in terms of numbers they are irrelevant.

Al Gore received 90% of the black vote in 2000.

Barack Obama received 95% of the black vote in 2008.

Hillary Clinton received 89% percent of the black vote.

So yeah, I don't really see the point of these tweets.

Well actually I suspect I do know what you're attempting to do.

You find a few black conservatives in an attempt to mask just how bigoted the GOP actually is.

Sorry buddy but Candace is an outlier.

https://www.theroot.com/kanye-west-candace-owens-and-the-conservative-sunken-p-1825473389

When it comes to their own status, conservatives are willing to accept the role that history plays in almost every political, social or economic issue as long as it doesn’t cast aspersion on the majority class. The entire premise of the argument for conservatism is rooted in the historical idea that everyone who came to this country (except for the descendants of African slaves) came here to escape oppression and fight for their own freedom.


The oppression of the white working class is bandied about as the reason America is led by a neo-Nazi apricot, but black people are wallowing in self-pity when they point out income inequality, employment gaps or disparities in education funding. These people declare “reverse racism” while dismissing any claim of racism as whining.


Kanye and Owens are willing to distance themselves from black people because they have become addicted to the hypnotizing effects of the white gaze. They have been bamboozled into believing that all of the problems in the black community are caused by the shiftless Negroes who would rather flounder in self-pity than pull themselves up by their bootstraps.

Yeah I mean you can find anyone who will say anything. SD20 is so desperate for approval for his Alt-Right brand of idiocy that he's now saying one single black person on Twitter not totally disavowing his nonsense is a huge massive win for the derposphere.

Imagine a liberal going nuts over Bill Kristol or some sh*t. OMG our movement is taking over!!!! This is a tidal wave!!!

damn y'all gettin scurred up in here. you know...it's just a matter of time before conservatives find a unicorn at some point as well.

Candace is a little "hardcore" for me but (i understand) that (she understands) that the inflamed rhetoric she uses gets more traction. Once she has the traction (and she is getting very close to "critical mass") she can tone down the rhetoric a little and become more main stream while retinaing the same basic principles to guide her rhetoric and leadership.

So yeah. this is sooooooo happening. And I'm very proud of her because she was just doing youtube videos and "finding her voice" figuring out what worked for her a just a couple of short years ago. She has done tons of youtube videos. Some still up. Some are down. She's got the hits. the feedback. so, she knows what to say. and how to say it. and learned on her own. This isn't a script. nor an act. And she was doing this for free for nearly 2 years. So in terms of being a paid shill, she vetted herself.

That doesn't mean that someone cant come along and offer her a bag of cash and she wont take it. But then she loses the long game. and her long game is strong. There is no reason that this women wont be a sitting US representative soon. and if she moves into the right district she could win right now in 2018. The entire party will get behind her. in 2020,22,24 she could shoot higher. US senator.

She is already touring with 2 quickly rising stars and future of the conservative party, Ben Shapiro and Charlie Kirk. She is "opening" for them and ending up the headliner. Reminds me of the time I saw GnR open for the Rolling stones. Half the crowd left after GnR. And this girl aint no idiot. She is quick on her feet and knows the issues.

She just needs some real life experience. If I'm trump, I put her in the press office stat, right out front. This Gril is like a rookie donovan mitchell. Throw her to the lions and she eat them up for breakfast. Or have her work in Hud directly under Ben Carson. Or Fox should make her a regular on the outnumbered with Harris Faulkner(who is far and away the best journalist on TV).

I'm telling you guys. You are damn fools if you dont see this train coming. Its got a LOT of steam.

My only fear is that the assassinations of MLK and MalcomX were not that long ago. Every time the black community find a real voice. A True leader. A True prophet. however harsh or appeasing the message. Something bad happens. So i just pray for her because she clearly does not believe in victim mentality. Rather victor mentality. And unfortunately not only will racists work against here so as to keep the plight of black people down in victim mentality but also many of her own race are bought and paid for to propagate victim mentality which does NOT allow for full growth of the race.

To fully grow, and realize all of your potential both as a race, tribe, and as an individual, you must take full ownership of your life. Young Children aside, there are no victims.

Speaking of backbone:
Here she is..THIS MORNING... pushing back at Brian Kilmeade. Who slings an arrow (at kanye). And she KNOWS who Kilmeade is. and the weight(which is heavy) he carries at Fox. There is literally no journalist more powerful at Fox that you can push back at. I'm guessing Roger Stone is testing her. Wow!!! Just listen to her response. bob n weave muthaphuckas!!!!

Quoting for a teaching moment. In case any of you were wondering,

This is exactly what it looks like when a little boy gets scurred on the interwebz. Exactly. :nod:

Candace owens has been on twitter for less than a year and had 180K followers on twitter 2 weeks ago. an amount she carried for about 1 year as she brought here youtube crowd over to follow her. Last week, as this evolved, it jumped 250K. 3 days ago 280K, 1 day ago 300K. Today 316K. For comparison's sake Don lemon has 688K followers and been on twitter since 2008, and was Obama's right hand man at CNN for interviews, leaks, etc. And for 2 hours every night has his own show on CNN.

This Girl is ON FIRE!! So yeah. you should be scurred!!

that term needs to be retired. At first, it was used by black folk who were legitimately trying to open their minds to black history, culture, and fight WS. Now it's been hijacked by white liberals and now even right-leaning alt-right losers like STD. :noway:

if you dont understand that (she understands) that she needs Fox and the Fox audience. And clearly the fox audience is at odds with someone like Kanye (who did say George Bush hates black people). Yet she also needs the support of someone like Kanye (who can catapault her platform and who carries a ton of weight with the liberal left-so as to influence the liberal left into a different mindset).

because thats (her) goal right? That would be her path to victory as a politician. To get those 89-90% liberal voters to become a mere 75-80%, right??? perhaps even 60-65%


To see how skillfully and artfully she negotiates that (kanye) arrow slung by Kilmeade. Because Kilmeade and Fox are NOT stupid either. They want to see if kanye is willing to stay in this particular lane and continue to back up Candace. And Fox and Kilmeade gave Candace the opportunity to "speak" on Kanye's behalf, so as to open up the Foz audience to a Kanye "approved" Candace Owens. But whether is kanye or someone else, a speaker/politician like Candace Owens will need help from the left to change minds on the left.

because if you get Kanye, and/or perhaps other liberals, thats the only way this works. You need to change the minds on the left. Now I understand that the fools on this board are stuck in their ways.lol. But Swing voters are real. and they really do swing elections. Swing voters represent about 5-10% of the electorate in about 8 states. A Kanye-backed-Candace-Owens is exactly the kind of Unicorn that can swing those voters should she get big enough to run for the big dance. Even if for nothing more than US senator. She can steal a liberal state's senatorial seat with this kind of thunder :nod: :nod:

So if that is "irrelevant?" Sure. Ok.
