I can't inagine that Kanye West, who is a talented musician but an even more talented publicity-hound, has given thirty seconds of thought to Donald Trump's presidency.   "Look how contrary I am! That'll get me in the papers!"

Yes. How dare he speak for himself.
Like Jim Brown
Larry Elder
Thomas Sowell
Jason Riley
59 Cent
Alan Keyes
J.C. Watts
Lynn Swann
Karl Malone
Clarence Thomas
Wilt Chamberlain
Armstrong Williams
Janice Rogers Brown
To name a few.

Implied in that list, of course, is the fact that EVERY OTHER AFRICAN AMERICAN YOU HAVE EVER HEARD OF THINKS TRUMP IS HUMAN GARBAGE..

Was not aware Wilt Chamberlain was a Trump supporter. And who is 59 Cent?

Made 18% in the market last year

"It's not a citizen."

Just what does it take to get Trump to openly show dislike of a despot?

Apparently torturing, murdering and dismembering a Post journalist without a trial or any legal process whatsoever is insufficient.  Would it have helped if it had been a Fox news anchor, perhaps a pretty one?

This is exactly what so many feared Trump would want to go to war over.

Was not aware Wilt Chamberlain was a Trump supporter.

I never implied ANYONE on that list had a connection to Trump just that they spoke for themselves.

So who DOESN'T speak for themselves?

My position on the whole Kanye West thing: just one more thing Obama was right about.

It seems that only folks who have politics that seemingly line-up with Red's are bestowed with the praise of "speaking for themselves."  Which leads me to the conclusion that those who don't agree with Red must be mere sheep. 

Hey Red.  Does Colin Kaepernick speak for himself?

[Yankguy1]

Didn't Armstrong Williams take a quarter-million from the Bush administration to promote No Child Left Behind? But he speaks for himself!!!!!!!!

[REDSTATEWARD]

Hey Red.  Does Colin Kaepernick speak for himself?

Obviously.

[Yankguy1]

Hey Red.  Does Colin Kaepernick speak for himself?

Obviously.

Ah. Kind of odd that he didn't make the list.  Only the guy (who's been known to thrown a woman or two off a balcony) who came out against kneeling during the anthem was credited with thinking for himself.  Interesting.

[LarryBnDC]

Typical conservative talking point concerning black people, those who think like conservatives “think for themselves” and all other blacks are “on the Democrat plantation.”
Ever think those who “think for themselves” think it better to be in the house on the GOP plantation?

He's reportedly gonna turn himself into a global brand and make squillions.
Hmmm, wonder what that 'knee' 'business' was really about"

[bambu-wisdom]

Hmmm, I could be a 'hidden genius' like Jared.
Maybe I'm a genius and people don't know it.

[Yankguy1]

Well you're certainly a genius at hiding it.

Meanwhile, way down south in the land of bambu…

...at "Royal Randwick" [Randwick a suburb of Sydney] today we have the richest horse race in the world, on turf.

. Cervical cancel will soon be eradicated...results of vaccinations for the past 10 years are kicking in now.
. There has been invented a new light screening method for breast cancer...a product of a huge circular light research centre.
. And a discovery using 'human mice'...a possible cure for leukemia.

cool.

Pity President Trump won't be visiting.

[bambu-wisdom]

Well you're certainly a genius at hiding it.

lol

When taking[with mrs bambu] my 9 yr old great nephew and his slightly elder sister on the rainforest metal skywalk a few years ago in far nth Qld, it started to rain...from my backpack I took umbrellas for all...having assessed from the clouds in the distance that I should stop and buy some umbrellas before we got to the skywalk.
As I handed out the umbrellas I said to the kids: "I'm a genius, for having these umbrellas so we don't get drowned".

The boy said: "You're not a genius".

The lady behind us, who was getting soaked, said; "I think he is".
