I love ice cube he is smart. He said I have a plan to help the black community he started a cause and said both campaigns contacted him. Trump wanted to discuss it and Biden said we will discuss it after the election. He made a contract with black America and apparently Trump integrated some of his ideas into his campaign. But I don't think he's with Trump or even supports his campaign. He just wants to work with whoever will listen to him.

They're wealthy. They don't want their taxes to go up since they're in a much higher income bracket.

They're hoping their fans are too stupid to realize that they're more worried about themselves and their own tax responsibilities than anything else.

Funny thing is that once you start making a little money, it tends to make it that much easier to be red pilled.

Rapper Boosie spelled it out back in 2016... when asked about Hillary vs Trump.



I wonder how many picked up on what he said about "you weren't helping my momma when she was a single mother"?

Thats the part that the democrats don't get. Just because you give more money to the gov't under the premises of helping those less fortunate, doesn't mean that money will get to the right people. That is why its illogical to be a democrat.

Democrats in essence are expecting and willing to give more money and more power to a group of people with conflict of interest and then expecting them to fix their problems those same people with conflict of interest created.

Every democrat solution is the equivalent of giving more power and money to the MOB and expecting the MOB to fix crime in their city.

Perhaps their fans aren't as stupid as you think and they also don't want their taxes to go up or perhaps they are hoping it goes down?

The only stupid people are those that think its a good idea to give a gov't riddled with conflict of interest more money and power to fix the problems the same gov't created in the first place and hasn't done anything about in the last 50 years at minimum.

Its the equivalent of giving the mob more money and more power to fix crime.

At-least acknowledge conflict of interest is an issue and make it a priority then come back and ask for more money from me when you have conflict of interest minimized to a point our gov't does what is best for its people and not the politicians and lobbyist.

You have to be some kind of special to want to give our govt more money and more power while its riddled with conflict of interest.

Ok America, you've had your fun, you're not seriously going to vote in a President Biden are you?

So I'm in London and perhaps it's none of my business, but in my defence I've always been pro-American, taken vacations there, and anyway I live on the same planet, so let me have my say.

It's obvious to me that Trump has been very good for the US economy, and will remain so in future given the chance. If Trump does not stand up to China then who will? For 30 years China has been on course to take over the world and will probably actually do so, unless Trump is still here to say "Whoa". So I say either vote Trump or else get your kids enrolled in Chinese lessons soon. Serious.

Yes there are other important problems, the environment, healthcare, equality, migration, Coronavirus, etc. My view is they are not as important as the economy, and let's be honest a lot of the issues could be mitigated by spending more money, which brings us right back to needing a big strong US economy because then there will be more money for healthcare etc. Trump knows how to do it, so just let the guy get on with it.

So okay Trump is not the easiest guy to like, he tells lies, he's aggressive and he has said some regrettable things, but he is the best man to be President. I despair when I see the self-serving hate being spouted by the Dem leaders who act in their own interest. He's draining the swamp and many are upset about that, he's upsetting their cosy political lives, so naturally they want him gone.

Do the right thing guys, or it's all over for the US and whole world.

Peace.

Ice Cube is a major Racist so he can stay on the Democrats side in my opinion. 50 has never come off as anyone but a smart guy who knows who makes him money. It was White America that made him wealthy

Ignorance at its best. Who does he think pays for schools, roads and government, definitely not taxes he doesn't believe nothing lol.

He is just a sucker who don't have a good tax accountant and one who for his labels BS when he could be making ten times more and not care about taxes had he been independent and promoted himself.

Look at the insane money Ryan Upchurch and others are making quickly by promoting themselves on YouTube, instagram and spotify.

Luther Campbell is a perfect example of doing this in the black community without youtube back in the day but nobody wanted to learn or hussle in the black community, today he is one of the biggest promoters and he started it all with one of the best records of all time lol.

Most of the black rappers today are hooked with a few easy dollars flashed Infront of their face.

Ryan upchurch has an funny video he made after Tailor Swift got shafted by her record label. He was trying to be recruited by the same lable that ended up dumping her just a few weeks prior but Ryan seen through all their BS before he even went. He still went to listen to them and get free stuff lol.

I always thought Ice Cube was a cool dude! (to use vernacular I ususally don't). I applaud him and 50 Cent for seeing the truth about the difference between Capitalism and Socialism.

Really? Hooked? Do you have something against Free Enterprise? Cause that is what it sounds like to me. Maybe they have a better understanding of it than you, and even better than the usual white SJW self righteous hollywood people, who though they made millions and millions off the Free Enterprise system, they imagine that while in their own little tax shelters they are the conscience of the world and of America, spouting their ideas about how we need to agree to a Green New Deal which is just red socialism with a green mask.
I respect these two for realizing that socialism is not the answer.
It's when people like George Soros use and usurp the Free Market to hurt others it becomes a danger to society. People who promote socialism and communism and radical left ideals and front groups are doing more to hurt society and yet so many who do this made millions off Free Enterprise.

50 cent is voting for Trump for tax reasons , And Ice Cube is supporting Trump building a " Platinum Plan" a plan that would bring 3,000,000 new jobs to the African American community.

Of course the Left media is attacking both of these Black celebrities for there "dis-loyalty" , calling Ice Cubes plan " Dangerous " .

I for one am just over come with Joy that these two prominent Black celebrities are seeing the light , I hope to God a huge part of the African American community will follow there logic.



What I thought was interesting is that Ice Cube approached both parties. Democrats basically told him to wait till after the election. Republicans immediately incorporated his ideas into their plan.

This alone shows you how Democrats view black folks...

Nothing will make you conservative quicker than paying taxes.... Under Bidens plan, when accounting for state/local taxes, NYC residents in top bracket will be paying 62% in income taxes. 50 cent, like most people, are like screw that....
There are no taxes a Democrat didn't like. The Green New Deal would destroy our economy, lose our jobs, over tax individuals and businesses, and ruin our lifestyle. It would bankrupt us faster than lightning.

The black community is waking up all over this country and it's about damned time. Democrats have never valued the black community.


It's like that old line from LBJ, "I'll have these n*ggers voting Democrat for 200 years."

To my knowledge, that's a loosely sourced quote, but it sounds like something LBJ would say. And even if he didn't, it's a pretty succinct way to summarize how Democrats feel about the black community.


Here's a few more of LBJ's quotes.


These Negroes, they’re getting pretty uppity these days and that’s a problem for us since they’ve got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we’ve got to do something about this, we’ve got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference. For if we don’t move at all, then their allies will line up against us and there’ll be no way of stopping them, we’ll lose the filibuster and there’ll be no way of putting a brake on all sorts of wild legislation. It’ll be Reconstruction all over again.

In Senate cloakrooms and staff meetings, Johnson was practically a connoisseur of the word. According to Johnson biographer Robert Caro, Johnson would calibrate his pronunciations by region, using “nigra” with some southern legislators and “negra” with others. Discussing civil rights legislation with men like Mississippi Democrat James Eastland, who committed most of his life to defending white supremacy, he’d simply call it “the n*gger bill.”


But there were also instances of casual racism that can’t be so easily rationalized. Biographer Caro also notes that Johnson is said to have replied as follows to a black chauffeur who told him he’d prefer to be called by name instead of “boy,” “n*gger” or “chief”:


As long as you are black, and you’re gonna be black till the day you die, no one’s gonna call you by your goddamn name. So no matter what you are called, n*gger, you just let it roll off your back like water, and you’ll make it. Just pretend you’re a goddamn piece of furniture.

Johnson, like other presidents, would often reveal his true motivations in asides that the press never picked up. During one trip, Johnson was discussing his proposed civil rights bill with two governors. Explaining why it was so important to him, he said it was simple: “I’ll have them n*ggers voting Democratic for two hundred years.”

“That was the reason he was pushing the bill,” said MacMillan, who was present during the conversation. “Not because he wanted equality for everyone. It was strictly a political ploy for the Democratic party. He was phony from the word go.”


These are democrats, and the allies LBJ spoke about lining up against the democrats if they didn't do something for the black community were Republicans.

Money over everything.

I like it.


One would assume that blacks who have been taught incessantly about slavery would see a tax regime that sees them working primarily to turn over the results of that labor to enrich others as being very familiar for some reason ... I can't quite put my finger on why, but there could be something ... I don't know ... familiar about the concept.

It's sickening. They were the original KKK.
Then there is this: Communist Party recruitment www.ozy.com...
That of course is in addition to James Cone and his Black Liberation Theology which also has a communist leaning.

I think you are confusing BLM ,MSM, and the Democrat party with ATS.

Also what ability or technology do you have that lets you know the race of the individual from an online post?

Can't blame them. When you work hard for your money, it's not very appealing to know you might have to give up over 60% in taxes. That's beyond ridiculous. Why can't they have the money they worked hard for? Tax rates should be the same no matter what bracket you're in.

If that's your reasoning and logic, I hope you don't support bLM, antifa, or the democrat party because those whities have been telling the black community what's best for them since the 60's when LBJ decided he'd use y'all as pawns.

Great news! Sounds like two smart gentlemen.

Trump's got big plans, and we need to do our part as voters to give him control of the government, the Congress and the courts. And we need to shut down loud mouth liars and hold them accountable for every singular lie

What exactly have democrats done for you again?

Let me guess, Adam Schiff and Nancy Pelosi told you XYZ about ABC

Noone is telling you what to think. Democrats are a failed party with a failed ideology. Do you want government handing out public money with a dozen strings attached or do you want opportunity, security and a real future

Dems are failures
