NY Dem Rep. Eliot Engel Caught On Hot Mic: If I Didn't Have A Primary, I
Wouldn't Care

“If I didn’t have a primary, I wouldn’t care” sounds like a great slogan for the
Democratic Party.

Black Lives Matter to President Trump | RealClearPolitics
the_dster69

Doesn't matter if black lives matter to Trump. He's not a democrat, and since
the democrat party owns the narrative, he's not allowed to care.Only democrats
can care about black people and, even when they dress up in black face or
otherwise insult black people, it's okay...because they are democrats and they
care.
