I'd say that I couldn't believe what I'm hearing out of this guy but then again hes had had a long history of perpetuating a lot of the mechanisms of oppression for black folks.



mod edit: adjusted the source in OP

He said that with a smile because he thought it was going to get some laughs. He is fucking garbage.

Wow that's an actual quote by him Jesus. I don't like Charlemagne but his response is on point and highlights the issue a lot of black voters have with the Dems. All they seemingly want to offer us is to just say that they're better than the alternative.

How did Democrats manage to find a candidate worse than Hillary Clinton? Just blows my mind.

Biden is going to start giving the late Rob Ford (previous mayor of Toronto) a run for his money.

But this one will never cease to amaze me:

For a moment I thought you meant the movie, but... wow. He is all in on this "you have no choice but to vote for me" angle, isn't he? Dude is just going to coast to the White House.

Biden seems to dip into this really cocky mentality a lot. Comes from the same well as telling that dude at a rally to vote for trump, and saying things like if he believed Reade he wouldn't vote for him.

Eesh. EESH. That said, I need to see what lead into the exchange because Charlamagne isn't exactly a good faith debater and has a history of anti-blackness himself (there's a bit of old barbershop troll in him).

For a candidate that AT BEST people are supporting begrudgingly...lol.

Making it about how bad Trump is sure worked last time...

When... You know, it was mostly white people that voted him into office.

Black people overwhelmingly went with Hillary...

Wonder when Dems will wake up and not see black people as just another vote... And start addressing the root cause of our issues?

Shooting himself in the foot all the way to the Presidency, just like Trump. I wish there was a way to prove white people have it easier. Maybe someday the opportunity will present itself. Always a moving target. Very elusive.
