Michael Eric Dyson, liberal ‘View’ hosts say Trump’s mention of ‘Gone with the Wind’ was racially motivated

Liberal commentator Michael Eric Dyson attacked President Trump on Friday, arguing that he was racist for pushing for a return of “Gone with the Wind” and criticizing the movie “Parasite.” “The View” showed a clip of Trump arguing at a Colorado rally Thursday that “Parasite” shouldn’t have received an Academy Award. He also panned the choice of a South Korean film for best picture. “What the hell was that all about?” Trump asked. He added: “Can we get like ‘Gone with the Wind’ back, please?” “Yeah, let’s get ‘Birth of the Nation’ back because we don’t have enough of that kind of kowtowing and cooning,” Dyson said, referring to a movie that’s long considered to be racist. “The View” then muted the comments that followed and it’s unclear what exactly he said. Co-host Sunny Hostin took issue with Trump’s “Make America Great Again” slogan, arguing that Trump thought America was great in 1939 when “Gone with the Wind” was released. Dyson added that the movie was about “subordinating black people to white folk.” “Let’s bring back the Civil War, let’s bring back slavery,” said co-host Ana Navarro, speaking on how she believes Trump feels about the film. “Gone with the Wind” has come under fire for its depiction of slavery and African Americans. In 2017, a historic theater in Memphis, Tenn., which had shown “Gone With the Wind” screenings for decades, decided to remove the classic film from its schedule due to its racially “insensitive” content. At the time, Orpheum Theater President Batterson explained the decision by saying , “As an organization whose stated mission is to ‘entertain, educate and enlighten the communities it serves,’ the Orpheum cannot show a film that is insensitive to a large segment of its local population.” The wife of late “Gone With the Wind” actor Fred Crane was outraged over the theater’s decision to ban the film. “By making a statement, they are trying to make a problem,” Terry Lynne Crane told Fox News at the time. “They are inciting racial division and it’s only escalating.”

Exactly right, Ma’am.  This is just another pathetic, disingenuous attempt to label Trump a racist.  It’s the standard Democrat talking point that they push over and over.  Trump liked the movie ‘Gone with the Wind;’ a movie that won TEN academy awards and is considered one of the greatest classic movies of all time.  So what?  It’s a great movie!   That’s all Trump was saying when he disagreed with ‘Parasite’ winning an Oscar.  That’s all   But, because the setting of the movie was during the Civil War when yes, blacks were slaves in the DEMOCRAT south, these self-righteous, sanctimonious, liberal elitists jumped at the opportunity to call Trump a racist.  Then, to make matters worse, you have these brain surgeons on The View suggesting that Trump, in an election year no less, actually intended to make a racist comment.  In other words, he consciously tried to be offensive to a large voting segment in an election year.  Yeah, Michael and Sunny, that’s what he intended…morons.  This is self-serving, agenda driven nonsense gone crazy.  And this is why more and more people are turning away from these race hustlers on the left.

Behar: 2020 Dems Under Too Much Scrutiny — Republicans Are the ‘Most Racist’

Co-host Joy Behar defended 2020 Democratic hopeful Michael Bloomberg’s record on race relations over the objections of co-host Sunny Hostin on Friday’s broadcast of ABC’s “The View.” Behar said, “Here’s my point, the stop and frisk thing I think will be counteracted by some of the following. When he was mayor, not that—listen…I’m not shilling for Mayor Bloomberg yet, but I think there’s another side to the story.” Co-host Meghan McCain said, “You kind of are. You like him.” Behar said, “I like him, fine, I do. I like Biden too. I like all of them. I told you I’ll vote for any of them. I’ll vote for Peewee Herman, I told you. But let’s talk about this. He created an office to tackle poverty when he was mayor. He greatly expanded city contracts with businesses owned by minorities and women. He created the young men’s initiative to help black and Latino men stay on track for success, and he reduced incarceration by 40% and juvenile confinement by more than 60%. That is the balance to the stop and frisk that the black community is looking at. You know, as Sunny says every day, no one can win the primary without the black vote. Hostin said, “I think his record, though, Joy, is problematic. I really do. Not only does he have the stop and frisk issue, but he has also the redlining thing … he made it racial. He did.” Behar said, “Why are you so strict on Democrats and lenient on Republicans who have the most racist policies and the most racist track record? Why? Every single one who’s running probably has— this is a racist country, right? Hostin said, “Yeah.” Behar said, “Every single one of them has something in their background that doesn’t look good for race.

And THAT is what Joy Behar, and the rest of these liberal media tools, are falling back to; the race card.  For Dems, its the fallback position; playing the race card.  Joy is in hysterics.  Her pathological hatred (i.e. Trump Derangement Syndrome) for Trump is so intense, that even she admits she’d vote for the fictitious Peewee Herman character.  So, out comes the race card.  After all, Trump is the most racist president we’ve ever had, right?  America is starting to see through that unfounded Dem talking point…and that’s just one of the reasons Joy and her friends are in hysterics.

Mike Pence Urges View Co-Host Joy Behar to Apologize to ‘Millions of Christians’

Vice President Mike Pence reportedly accepted comedian Joy Behar’s apology for mocking his faith, but he had hoped the ABC television star would make a bigger apology to the “millions of Christians” who tune in to The View. “She apologized to the vice president, he accepted and said he wasn’t offended by her comment for his own sake but on behalf of the millions of Christians who watch ABC and her show,” a White House source told Fox News. “He encouraged her to make the same apology publicly on the show that she did privately to him.” Disney CEO Bob Iger revealed at a shareholder’s meeting Thursday that Behar, who co-hosts the daytime talk show The View, apologized to Pence for her comments saying that the vice president suffered from a “mental illness” for speaking to Jesus. “It’s one thing to talk to Jesus,” Behar said on February 13. “It’s another thing when Jesus talks to you. That’s called mental illness, if I’m not correct, hearing voices.” “My question is, can he talk to Mary Magdalene when his wife isn’t in the room?” she added. Pence described Behar’s comments as an example of “religious intolerance” and an “insult” to many Americans who are faithful. “To have ABC maintain a broadcast forum that compared Christianity to mental illness is just wrong,” Pence said. “It is simply wrong for ABC to have a television program that expresses that kind of religious intolerance.” More than 30,000 callers complained to ABC television network over Behar’s comments after Media Research Center president Brent Bozell launched a campaign to target the network’s advertisers. Behar has a history of criticizing conservatives and President Trump on the daytime talk show. On a February 27 broadcast of The View, she suggested that attendees of the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) have a “penchant for Nazis.”

Joy is such a loser..  And, while her apology to VP Mike Pence was a step in the right direction (whether she did it of her own volition, or was probably directed to do so), she didn’t have the courage or integrity to do it on tv.  She’s a nauseating, hate-filled, bigot…and she thinks shes witty, when really, she’s stunningly stupid.

More Than 30,000 Callers Blast ABC over View Co-Host Joy Behar’s ‘Anti-Christian Bigotry’

More than 30,000 callers blasted ABC for allowing The View’s Joy Behar to spew “anti-Christian bigotry,” but the parent company has not taken action on any of their complaints. An estimated 30,588 angry viewers called the television network as of Wednesday morning, outraged after ABC broadcast an episode of The View this month in which co-hosts Joy Behar and Sunny Hostin mocked Vice President Mike Pence for his religious beliefs. Media Research Center president Brent Bozell urged the television network to apologize for allowing religious bigotry to be tolerated on network television. The MRC posted contact information for 14 advertisers that broadcast on ABC, as well as information on how to get in touch with the president of ABC television network. “I am sure the advertisers of ‘The View’ will be just as appalled as I am about the anti-Christian remarks made on the show,” Bozell wrote. Behar and Hostin criticized the vice president for voicing his belief in Jesus Christ on the February 13 broadcast. “Look, I’m Catholic, I’m a faithful person, but I don’t know that I want my vice president talking in tongues,” Hostin remarked. Behar replied that Pence’s talking to Jesus is not a sign of faith, but a sign of “mental illness.” “It’s one thing to talk to Jesus. It’s another thing when Jesus talks to you. That’s called mental illness, if I’m not correct, hearing voices,” Behar said. The ABC television network, which includes entities such as ABC News and Disney, has not yet commented on the matter or addressed the callers protesting the network. Despite the outcry from ABC’s viewers, the daytime talk show has not toned down its anti-conservative rhetoric. On Monday’s broadcast of The View, Behar said attendes of the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) “have a penchant for Nazis.”

The View is, of course, mindless garbage..  And, Joy Behar is so nauseatingly stupid it boggles the mind that ABC has allowed her to be on “Baba Wawa’s” show (The View) this long.  But, her brazen attack on those of Christian faith is a bridge too far even for Joy.  ABC needs to fire her immediately, and apologize to the millions and millions Joy has offended….as well as the Vice President.

‘The View’ Bashes Trump as Unpresidential for Calling Terrorists ‘Evil Losers’

Following the horrific terror attack in Manchester, England, President Trump slammed the terrorists behind the bombing, calling them “evil losers.” On “The View” on Tuesday, some of the co-hosts took issue with Trump’s remark. Sunny Hostin said using the term “evil losers” was not presidential. “Harkening back to President Obama, who talked about the victims and didn’t talk about the bombers necessarily … and talked about how we as a society have to come together. I was expecting something like that,” Hostin said. Whoopi Goldberg agreed, saying she wants the president to be “one step above.” “I want him or her to be one step above and I don’t want them talking like I would talk,” Goldberg said. “When it comes down to it, if you’re the president of a country, you have to speak for that country.” On “Outnumbered” today, Harris Faulkner asked if it was presidential for Obama to dub ISIS a “JV team.” Herman Cain said he agrees with Trump calling terrorists “losers,” because they attack innocent people who can’t defend themselves and because their culture and way of life has lost to ours. “That’s what they have lost. And their only solution is: try to wipe us out,” Cain said. “So they’re losers for two reasons.” Meghan McCain pointed out that many national security analysts say that this type of rhetoric minimizes and takes power away from terrorists. “Never underestimate how much attention these losers and cowards are paying to their reaction in the media,” McCain said. “Because they are.”

Personally, I kinda like that we have a President who just calls it as he sees it, and calls these disgusting, barbaric, Islamic wackos “evil losers.”  Harris nailed it when she asked if it was “presidential” for Obama to call ISIS the “JV team.”  Exactly!!  On the one hand we had for 8 years a President who was a measured, polished, and a very calculating lawyer who downplayed the threat of ISIS; a group he essentially created by his foolish actions in Iraq..  Then, on the other hand, we have a new President who isn’t as polished, and is a New York businessman..and he just calls these maggots “evil losers.”  At least he gets it!  As for Whoopi and the other ladies on The View..  I think that if Trump had found the cure for cancer, they’d find some way to criticize him.  They need to grow up, get the heck over the fact that their gal lost in November..and when Trump attacks these Islamo-fascists, they should support him…or just shut the hell up.  They’re just making fools of themselves.

The View’s Raven-Symoné Vows to Leave US ‘If Any Republican Gets Nominated’

Thursday on ABC’s “The View,” co-host Raven-Symonè declared she would leave the United States for Canada if a Republican is “nominated.” Symonè said, “My confession for this election is if any Republican gets nominated, I’m gonna move to Canada with my entire family. Is that bad?” When pressed she added, “I already have my ticket … No, I literally bought my ticket, I swear.”

I actually saw a clip of this on Fox News’ “The Five” program.  The gang really went out of their way to give Raven the benefit of the doubt, saying that “she doesn’t understand politics.”  I think Greg Gutfeld, however, summed it up.  “She’s just dumb.”  Agreed.  That said, the moment ANY Republican is officially “nominated” at the convention, someone should go on The View, look Raven in the eye and ask, “um, why are you here?  Shouldn’t you be in Canada by now?  You said you had that ticket.  Well, a Republican just got nominated, and you promised you’d leave.”  Then, sit back and see this “glittering jewel of colossal ignorance” try to dance her way of that.  What a total moron…

ABC responds to petition to remove Raven-Symone from ‘The View’: ‘We love Raven’

ABC responded on Saturday to hundreds of thousand of online petitioners requesting that Raven-Symone be removed from her co-hosting duties on “The View.” “We love Raven. She is confident, genuine and opinionated, all qualities that make her a great addition to the panel,” a representative for ABC said in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter. The statement comes in response to a Change.org petition titled “Petition to Remove Raven Symone from the View.” The petition, which has garnered over 100,000 signatures in just three days, calls on Barbara Walters to fire the “Cosby Show” child star from “The View” over remarks she has made that many consider to be offensive to black people. The 29-year-old actress has sparked controversy in recent weeks saying she wouldn’t hire someone with a “ghetto name” like “Watermelondrea.” Earlier this week she suggested the Spring Valley High School girl who was thrown to the ground by a school resources officer this week bore responsibility for the arrest and shouldn’t have been on her cell phone in the first place. The petition, started by Che Scott-Heron from the U.K., has gained 119,525 signatures. The goal is to reach 150,000 supporters.

This is so rich..
