And they thought trump believed that each one of them were “the good ones”

Trump doesn’t believe there are any “good ones”

They all look like my Uncle Tom.

June 2024, Wesley Hunt and Byron Donalds bring their “Congress, cognac, and cigars” talks in several cities.

“All we want is for you to hear us out,” Hunt said, maintaining that the audience members did not have to agree with everything they said and would have the opportunity to voice their own opinions.

Throughout the roughly two-hour conversation, moderated by former ESPN host Sage Steele, a conservative podcaster, at a cigar lounge filled with a diverse but predominantly Black audience, several Black men took them up on that opportunity.But toward the second half of the event, the atmosphere grew contentious as Steele asked the room for the top issues they’d like to hear the congressmen address. Among them were immigration, national security and “morals.”

Jason R., a retired, college-educated Black husband and father who declined to provide his last name, shed light on what “morals” referred to.

“A local representative brought an amendment to the defense bill to reinstate a Confederate monument that has a depiction of a ‘mammy’ receiving a white baby from a Confederate soldier,” he began, “Of the four Black Republicans, three voted ‘yea’ on that.”

“It seems deceptive to come in here and talk about issues and then vote what seemingly isn’t based on principle,” Jason said.

Hunt responded by sharing an anecdote about several members of his family, including him, who attended the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. Hunt said he saw value in residing in “Robert E. Lee barracks.”

“Only in America can you have three Black children matriculate through the premier leadership institution of the entire world and graduate from there and live in a barracks named after a Confederate general,” Hunt said. “If it were named anything differently, I wouldn’t have that perspective.”

Why they didn’t get a job in the Trump admin? The world may never know.

Hey guys what about me? Oh that’s right, I died from COVID I caught at a trump rally 🤡
