Trump's 'To-Do List' Includes Golf and 'Attack Black Women,' Rep. Ayanna Pressley Grumbles

President Donald Trump is too fixated on his “enemies list” right now — and that is keeping him away from his usual to-do list, which includes golf and a need to “attack Black women,” Rep. Ayanna Pressley⁩ (D-MA) claimed on Saturday. Pressley made the provocative remark — among several others — during an appearance on MSNBC’s PoliticsNation with Al Sharpton.

The Democratic congresswoman ripped the Trump Administration for going after James Comey, after the former FBI director was indicted this week. The indictment, Pressley argued, showed the president is more focused on taking down his political rivals than following his typically “sinister” day-to-day agenda.

“He is working through this enemies list every day, prioritizing political retribution and grievance, and again, working an enemies list instead of a to-do list,” Pressley said. “I mean, his to-do list, I think, just says: golf, attack Black women, attack enemies, alienate our allies, and continue to create crushing hurt for working families.”

Pressley doubled down on that comment a moment later, saying the Trump administration “has been anti-Blackness on steroids.” The latest example? Firing more than a dozen FBI agents who knelt at a protest in support of George Floyd, Pressley said.

What an odd and minimizing, not to say sexist and disrespectful, characterization of someone who is courageously standing up and fighting for us all. Mediaite should know better. (In fact, the tone of the article seems really off-key to me.)

HOWEVER, Rep. Pressley’s statements are perfectly correct and deserve attention. She is expressing the proper outrage, and isn’t that what we want the Dems to be doing?

Thanks for posting it, BumRushDaShow.

But few if any of the M$M are reporting about the pushback from many Democrats who are NOT among their "favored few" to report on, so it becomes their intentional effort to make it look like Democrats are doing nothing, resulting in us squabbling about it what we are doing.
