Basically anyone is allowed to attack Trump is OK, but when Trump defends himself that is totally out of bounds and inappropriate.
Remember the Khan family?
HOW DARE you attack a gold star family!
HOW DARE you attack a civil rights leader!
HOW DARE you attack a female actress!
HOW DARE YOU!!!!
As a funny aside,
CNN, one of the original coining sites of the "Fake News" mantra, now seems in consensus that the term "Fake News" has probably run it's course.
Several CNN 'journalists' came to that conclusion today because . . . . .

. . . . . . . . . . . they are concerned Conservatives using it against various news sites might impact 1st Amendment freedoms.
Apparently there was no such concern when Libs started employing the term a few months ago

What the hell does that have to do with anything, other than point out that Lewis hold a grudge after all those years? His racism is obviously deep seated and malignant.

Of course not. But this criticism is garbage. He's not "all talk". That's the issue.

It's insulting to me to use the phrase "fake news". I shouldn't need to be told what is fake.
As a responsible consumer I can read and investigate the information and decide for myself what is true or not.
By promoting this notion that media outlets such as the New York Times, CNN, and NBC are fake news, you are laying the groundwork for fascism and subversion. I will concede media bias in these outlets. In fact almost all media outlets have some form of bias. It's on us to try to get our information from as many angles as possible and then decide for ourselves what we want to believe.

Thats because he's been in politics all those years. Rather than work like Trump has done, he just ripped off the taxpayers by doing nothing productive and taking his check out of the black neighborhoods he claimed he cared about. Another fake SJW.

It's funny that you didn't realize I was talking about Trump. He's the kind of guy that gets manicures.

Don't kid yourself, you'd give your left nut to have Fox News' FCC license pulled. In fact, I'd bet money that someone from the unhinged left has already contested the license.

Isn't it a shame that such a once-noble man would sell out to whitey and do everything he could to keep his fellow blacks under government shackle through welfare?

No I wouldn't. Fox News plays an important role in the media. I don't agree with much of their bias/slant but I get information from there just like any other news source.

Yep, they are using MLK.
John Lewis is the last surviving member of the Big Six. He, more than anyone else alive, has earned the right to be compared to MLK.
But you Trumpkins wouldn't know that...

Why? Because he was "there"?

You know nothing. Do some homework and learn about John Lewis "being there".

Quoted for the idiocy. Clearly anyone who says this has never earned a dollar in his life, much less as many a DJT has.

Well, to be honest, because of that picture, or what's supposedly happening in that picture, ol jawn has used and played that and taken advantage of that in getting where it currently is, which is a career race baiting politician and does nothing and has ZERO results to show for the amount of time it's been occupying its position.
So you could say that ol jawn has had everything handed to him for one reason and one reason only.

I will concede everything in your post, except this. People who spout this crap are either ignorant or just delusional. Did his dad provide a seed and launch pad? Yup. What he did with it was damned impressive though. People act like turning that into what he built is nothing. I have no idea how much he is really worth (and, considering it's mostly real estate, he probably doesn't either), but it is not something 99% of the people could create from where he started.
I'm no Trump sycophant. The guy will almost certainly be transformative, but it remains to be seen if that is for he better or worse. To dispute that he has accomplished a great deal through his own chutzpah and work ethic, though, just makes you look stupid.

You miss the point. Being "there" has no bearing on the person "here" and "now".
What do you think MLK would say about the new crop of SJWs and their destructive actions and words of separation of people into groups, based not on the content of their character, but the color of their skin?
