Obama Treats ‘the Brothers’ Like Babies

Obama disagrees with the simple, powerful placards that black males held overhead during the Civil Rights Movement.

"We have not yet seen the same kinds of energy and turnout in all quarters of our neighborhoods and communities as we saw when I was running," Obama hectored a group of black males in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on Thursday.

As if stripping black men of our moral agency were not bad enough, Obama accused pro-Trump black men of being misogynists.

If the only reason that black men support Trump is because we hate women and would put only a man in the Oval Office, then how does Obama explain the exit polls that found Trump's support among black men rise from 13 percent in 2016 to 19 percent in 2020? That 46.15 percent increase in Trump's black-male vote occurred when the choices were Trump or Joe Biden - another man.

Obama has infantilized black men as little boys incapable of choosing between candidates.

Obama ignored the concerns of black men who reject the Tax Queen's plans to hike levies by $5 trillion, strangle the economy in mandates and red tape, and project even deadlier weakness abroad. Obama did not spend a minute wondering if black men might like Trump's proposals for no taxes on tips, no taxes on overtime, and no taxes on Social Security benefits.

Obama should meditate on an expression I often heard at my 90 percent black elementary school in Los Angeles.
