Guys, it’s not the Democrats’ fault that their failed liberal policies have done nothing to combat poverty, or increase job opportunities, for decades in the urban areas. It’s an area that Donald Trump wants to conduct outreach, or at least that’s what I take when he says he wants to help everyone. Trump says that the Democrats have taken African-American voters for a ride, and that he wants to rebuild our cities. The problem is that he’s only polling one percent of the black vote. Yet, this isn’t about Trump. It’s about what Marc Lamont Hill said about black support for Trump and former Secret Service Agent Dan Bongino’s remarks that Democrats have ruined the cities and the black communities within these areas with the Left’s failed social agenda.

 

Hill took umbrage with this statement on CNN’s New Day with Chris Cuomo on Wednesday, where he said that former Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter wasn’t far left, and that the new way forward isn’t to boot Democrats and replace them with Republicans in positions of power within the urban areas. He also said that new policies were needed to create jobs and “change the relationship between police and community.” Oh, and that being a Democrat doesn’t make you poor, but there’s a connection between poor people and Democratic machines.

Now, you can debate among yourselves the plight in our urban areas in the comments section, but the interesting part of this exchange is the police and community aspect Hill touched upon. Remember in 2013, where he said that Chris Dorner’s spree killings, in which he targeted members of the LAPD, were “exciting”? At the time, Hill said, it was “like watching Django unchained in real life.” Dorner initiated these senseless killings over racism within the LAPD that he alleges destroyed his career. It doesn’t justify killing innocent people, though Hill took to Twitter to say we all misunderstood him. When it comes to community-police relations, I think the dude who said that Dorner’s actions were “exciting” can take a back seat.
