Of Course your capitalization refers to the movement not to lives, Black or otherwise. Actually he has said the name of that movement. And he has pointed out that it is "destroying many Black lives."

Apparently blacks think he and you are full of baloney
That’s one of the reasons he lost

and i say, what better way to do that, than to have a president who says you aren’t really black unless you’re a liberal?
let’s ignore fatherlessness , urban violence, failing city schools, let’s ignore all the things hurting the black community which don’t help
democrats win elections.
and let’s focus all of our energy instead, on police brutality, which pales in comparison to so many other challenges. but it’s a winning issue for democrats, and that’s all
that really matters
.
let’s elect the guy who literally wrote the crime bill which incarcerated massive numbers if blacks.
if that doesn’t work, nothing will.

Biden said he shouldn't of said that and said sorry the next day but it doesn't matter to you. You show more outrage than the people you think should be outraged.
I should start a word doc so you can cut and paste the items you post repeatedly.
Biden said you aren't black if you vote for a conservative
Hillary called people deplorable.
Obama said people cling to their religion and guns.
Conservatives give more $ to charity
etc
etc

they all apologize, after their staff tells them the polls show people hates the line. it’s kind of the opposite of sincere.
did he apologize for writing the crime bill?

i post those things repeatedly, because they destroy your arguments. when you can’t rebut what i’m saying, only fault me for lack of new material, what does that suggest?

They don't destroy anybody. they just show what a petty person you are that you need to bring up the few same old things that people have apologized for while ignoring the many many vile things that Trump has said and continues to say. Since there are so few things you constantly fall back on maybe you should start the word document yourself.

and a fine job we’ve done, as the fatherless rate has tripled in that time. but let’s not talk about that! it’s not a winning issue for democrats.
as the liberal goal here was to abort as many as humanly possible, and use Biden’s crime bill to incarcerate the few who somehow survived the abortion gauntlet, i say kudos to the democrats.

That is certainly the most efficient way to get rid of divisiveness, to unify us all as Americans. Xi is right. The CCP way is better than ours. It has successfully killed off those who would divide the country. The ultimate system of unity.

The former Republican Party has become the Trumplican Party
Living in fear of a tweet from Dear Leader.
Look at the admitted threat to the two Georgia Senators facing runoff elections, obey or get tweeted by the Stable Genius
Our system depends on people observing the norms, not playing them.

This is ridiculous. Why on earth would they fear the man who is about to be deposed. It seems to me that rather than fear, the Republicans who supported Trump acted with courage in the face of our powerful media which has scourged Trump and those who support him.
And there is little threat from a tweet by Trump who is largely disabled from saying anything counter to Twitter's anti-Trump policy. Yeah . . . i said it. Twitter's anti-Trump policy.
Politicians, Democrat and Republican alike, fear their constituents and the Press, not necessarily in that order.

Ask the incumbents from Georgia or most of the Republican Senators why they are afraid

pete says the GOP must die for america to survive.
this explains why cities and states where the gop has had no influence for decades, are doing so well. CT, IL, Michigan, etc...
this is why everyone is moving to liberal utopias like TX, TN, NC, SC, GA, FL.
Right Pete?
you victimized me again, eh?

Poor victim
Biden-voting counties equal 70% of America’s economy. What does this mean for the nation’s political-economic divide?
Brookings computes that the Biden counties in 2020 accounted for even more of US economic output than the Clinton counties of 2016: now up to 70%

He should be able to afford it, thanks to the Biden bump.
New record Dow, because Trump is leaving office and better public health and economic leadership is settling in.

Then bring your guns and your army - you're gonna need it.
This is PRECISELY the unhinged verbage that is dividing this country. This is WAY out of line and you do not get to walk this back.

Is it impossible for you, to not bring everything back to Trump?
Trump is obnoxious, so it's OK to say the GOP must die?
Paul, Biden told a room full of blacks, that Republicans "want to put y'all back in chains".
How much worse does it get, than that? Has Trump said many things that are more hateful, more divisive, more demonstrably false, than that? Telling blacks that Republicans see them as subhuman, that' snot as bad as anything that Trump has ever said?
But it's OK when Democrats do it. Because shut up!
ANY criticism of any liberal, anywhere, you reflexively respond with "but Trump". Like a Pavlovian dog.

Paul, Biden told a room full of blacks, that Republicans "want to put y'all back in chains". It is pretty telling that you have to resort to the few same things repeatedly.

The remark was a response to the Romney campaign saying they were going to "unshackle" Wall Street and this was the context of his remarks.
Also, Biden has said similar things before ..."“The last time we liberated the economy under their proposals, the last eight years put the middle class in chains. My lord, how many times we have to go back to that horror movie?”
So this is the worst thing Biden has said and it's really just a silly slip. Joe says silly things sometimes Jim.

The Stable Genius has the former Republican Party following him straight to Jonestown.
Most Trumplicans would tell you the following statements are true.
The traditional American way of life is disappearing so fast that we may have to use force to save it.
A time will come when patriotic Americans have to take the law into their own hands.
Strong leaders sometimes have to bend the rules in order to get things done.
It is hard to trust the results of elections when so many people will vote for anyone who offers a handout.
