Chris Wallace got into it with him over renaming bases and Don said:

quote:

“Go to the community, say how do you like the idea of renaming Fort Bragg, and then what are we going to name it? We’re going to name it after the Reverend Al Sharpton? What are you going to name it, Chris, tell me what you’re going to name it?”



From what I gather, black people seem to think there may be other options besides the good reverand.

Twit vid of full exchange

True but why are only black people getting a say in this? It should still be a democratic decision.

And Al Sharpton is a piece of shite.

Renaming a base could be dumbest issue being debated. It would cost a ton of money for nothing. Basically the general population do not even know the majority of names associated with the bases.

President Trump created the lowest unemployment rate for blacks EVER. If they're too stupid to understand or appreciate that, frick THEM.

A military base is the last thing black communities should care about. I promise you there is no real outrage there

We can’t focus on the actual employment/jobs we had for minorities and how we will get that back. Nope.

Let’s focus on erasing history. Much more important

From what I gather Black people seem to think this whole renaming cancel culture is not something THEY want to be a part of.

Because it is silly. Because it is trite. Because it is needless. Because it is pointless.

I gather the people who DO seem to think this is the thing to do are pimply faced white KIDS out playing anarchist...

Why should he? Cut the politically correct garbage. Look at black-run cities in America and you'll quickly see that pandering to get their votes will turn where you live into a shithole as well.

Darn.

I guess he will only get 1% of the black vote instead of the 1.12% he could obtain by pandering to their desires.

What a croc of shite. I don't know one black person who gives a frick what a military base is called and I interact with more black people in a week than those liberal talking heads on TV do in a year

Like others have said, the black community has no part in this cancel culture. This is the rich white liberal game.

BLM Fox viewers will be upset because Chris Wallace is the voice of the Black people.

Actually, he got twice as many as Mitt did, and he is polling high for a Republican. I guess CNN forgot to tell you that.

THIS! The black folks I know don’t care about empty symbolic gestures. They want real change, mostly in how police interact with citizens. They find all the pandering with Uncle Ben, Aunt Jemima, and removing tv show episodes for black face insulting. That’s not what they’re asking for. They don’t care about instagram hashtags or kneeling, or street murals. They WANT REAL REFORM!
