Housing and Urban Development official Lynne Patton insists that she was not used as a prop during the House Oversight Committee hearing with Michael Cohen Wednesday and defended the President as someone who does not see “color, race, creed or religion” only “success and failure.”
“I was there again not just to push back against a racist narrative, I was also there to push back against a liar,” Patton told “Fox and Friends.” “This man literally said yesterday, I have lied but I am not a liar. Like that was a legit quote.”
Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) accused Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC), who brought Patton, of using her as a prop during the proceedings in a racist gambit. Meadows got infuriated and cited black people in his life, saying that her implication was racist. Committee Chairman Elijah Cummings (D-MD) eventually put a stop to the bickering.
Cohen called Trump a racist during his testimony, listing examples of Trump allegedly saying that black people are “too stupid” to vote for him and calling any country run by a black President (including America at the time of his comment) a “shithole.”

Yeah, tell that to the Central Park Five, you motherfucking grifter.
What would Omarosa say?
What success? I see only failure these days, from coast to coast and beyond.
But really, bitch, he can’t be paying you that much.
If he doesnt care what people think, and he tells it like it is, why has he never said anything negative about Vladimir Putin’s war on the Ukraine, or any of Putin’s other actions?
