Donald R. McClarey
Cradle Catholic. Active in the pro-life movement since 1973. Father of three, one in Heaven, and happily married for 43 years. Small town lawyer and amateur historian. Former president of the board of directors of the local crisis pregnancy center for a decade.
Ten years of witch hunts, false accusations and public threats from public servants. Maxine Waters ring a bell or how about the Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi during and after Trump’s State of the Union speech. Remember that Obummer?
It’s very tiresome to see and hear the perpetuators of division pretend to be victims.
Argo yourself, Barack Hussain Turtle Parasite.
Your insignificance is as monumental as Hillary’s.
Did he not start the toxic divide….? And now he is shaming black men for not voting for Kamala…
Obama, deliberately I think, helped fuel the deterioration in race relations. At the beginning of Obama’s first term (and in other studies I can’t find just now) blacks and whites saw race relations as improving. It began to change with the man:
““We did a survey in 2009 that showed increased optimism among blacks about race relations. There was a sense that things were improving,” said Carroll Doherty, Pew’s director of political research. “That has kind of receded over time. African-Americans are still supportive of Obama, but the sense of black progress that you saw early in Obama’s term has leveled off if not receded.”

Race relations in the 21st Century have gotten worse because Marxists use race as a class. One class must be good and the other bad. As such, racism is no longer about an individual’s actions but their membership in a class. You can’t be a non racist white or a racist black. It is antithetical to their worldview.
Obama’s achievement was not about racial irrelevance in the mold of MLK. It was about the first victory of the correct class – a beachhead for the further advance of Marxism.
Never forget that most of the wonderful people in Biden’s administration were first in Obama’s, including that criminal Mayorkas.
As my oldest son noticed some years ago, isn’t it odd that the whole BLM movement rose only after we reelected our first black president.
Dave G-
Few things are so rewarding as when a son figures out something worthwhile!
During the madness of the 2020 BLM riots and burnings, former President Obama was in a unique position to have cooled things down. Instead, I cannot recall a single instance where that man tried to defuse the situation. People died, billions of dollars in property was burnt, businesses lost, and lives ruined.
Obama and his fellow leaders in the DNC made their calculations and decided that it was in their best interests to fan the flames rather then act against the violence; thereby setting back race relations in this country by decades. Those people have a dream: that their party prosper by encouraging Americans to judge others not by the content of their character but by the color of their skin.
Rules for Radicals.
RULE 10: “If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive.” Violence from the other side can win the public to your side because the public sympathizes with the underdog.
I’m wondering if enough of the public see the man who was targeted, shot at and a victim of New York liberal lawfare as being the “underdog?”
I’m speaking of the undecided voter base here.
The negitive being, the hatred of orange man.
—-just wondering aloud here—
Joe Biden is pitiful. Jimmy Carter was a foolish idiot. Bill Clinton was a lying womanizer. But Hillary Clinton, Barack HUSSEIN Obama, and Kamala Harris are utterly loathsome and despicable. Obama would never have gotten this far if it weren’t for a weak-minded and ignorant electorate. And Harris just got lucky with Biden’s dementia.
We visited the USA during Obamas presidency. I recall my husband striking up a conversation with a young black employee at a department store and asking him how he felt about the first black president. The young man came across as underwhelmed. We recall this a number of times throughout our trip. We got the sense of a lack of pride in their Af-Am heritage beyond always wanting to “fight”.
We also noticed that particularly in NY, blacks are hostile towards tourists. Particularly those employed in the tourist and hospitality sector. One black man in particular sarcastically retorted to us “welcome to
NY baby” would not hold a bus for a second so we could hop on with our daughter’s stroller.
Not to mention those at security checkpoints in airports. I was publicly humiliated by one particular large aggressive black officer for forgetting to empty my 2 year old daughter’s water bottle before I boarded a domestic flight (more liquid than allowed on planes at the time). Honest error.
I noticed the hostility came mainly from black Americans…and no I’m not racist. I just came to conclusion from our interactions that some black Americans are…🤷🏻♀️…and for no good reason. They had a black president at the time.
Ezabelle- New York has a love/hate relationship with tourists in general. Love the fame, the money, the status. Also love to despise tourists for not being savvy to everything New York. There are exceptions, and I know them personally. 🙂
I’m not going to disagree with the other phenomenon you describe. It happens often to people given power, but is usually worse when the person in power feels they are owed something. Race politics here have been telling African Americans that they are owed something for at least 50 years now. It’s poisonous.
