Thankful for Donald Trump.

(ThyBlackMan.com) The holiday season isn’t just about food, festivities and shopping – it’s also a time to reflect and give thanks for our blessings.
Too many people get caught up with material things, and they don’t take time to reflect on the difficult times that God has brought them through because of his grace.
As I reflect on the season, I’m thankful for President Trump – the great white hope – who is putting America first. Despite the lies and attacks from the left-wing media, liberal Democrats and Never Trumpers, Trump is enduring his challenges with class and grace. He’s a glaring contrast to the Fallen Messiah Barack Obama, who spent eight years exploiting identity politics and dividing the country.
In less than a year, Trump has achieved more meaningful accomplishments than any other administration in recent memory.
He is putting our national security first by moving forward with his promise to build a big, beautiful wall along the U.S.-Mexico border. He is allowing our military to do what it was designed for: to fight and kill bad guys.
Donald Trump is rebuilding our armed forces and dismantling liberal policies piece by piece. He is allowing the generals and commanding officers to lead the troops. As a result, ISIS and other radical Islamists are on the run and are being decimated.
Donald Trump appointed Judge Neil Gorsuch – a true conservative – to the United States Supreme Court. He is also quickly filling federal court vacancies, outdoing Obama and George W. Bush during the first 200 days in office in circuit and district court appointments. These appointments will have a huge impact on our laws and culture for many years to come.
Donald Trump has the economy booming again. He is bringing manufacturing back and making trade fair again. All this has resulted in some 1.7 million jobs being created sine he was elected.
That’s amazing!
Trump wisely pulled the U.S. out of the awful Paris climate agreement, which was impeding our nation’s ability to compete. The president also put the United Nations and NATO on notice that they must pay their fair share and will no longer have a blank check from the U.S.
Other presidents have sat on the sidelines and allowed the left to degrade America and mock traditional Christian values. In Obama’s case, he was actively promoting evil by supporting unfettered abortions and embracing the anti-white, anti-police Black Lives Matter hate group.
The president and vice president are very pro-life. Trump is taking on the NFL commissioner and NFL teams for not reprimanding low-life players like Colin Kaepernick.
I’m grateful to have been born in the greatest country on this side of heaven on a plantation in Alabama. Even though the laws were against blacks, I was surrounded by good examples, and I was never taught to hate whites.
As I say on my radio show: I am not African-American, I am 100 percent American! No African drums beating in my chest; the American guitar is playing in my heart. Black as the ace of spades, but 100 percent American!
I’m thankful that God allowed me to see the destructive effect that anger was having on my life and that He caused me to forgive. As a result, my life has unfolded in ways I never imagined.
He made it possible for me, a country boy without a college degree, to run a nationally recognized nonprofit, BOND, which is committed to “Rebuilding the Family by Rebuilding the Man.” We provide counseling, mentoring, jobs, an entrepreneurship academy, men and women’s forums and church services. We’ve been around for 27 years, and we don’t take a dime of government money. Yet, thanks to the prayers, financial support and volunteer time from decent men and women, we’re getting the truth out and helping people around the globe.
We have young people in colleges across the country. Some have started businesses. We have young people getting married and starting families and doing it right: without premarital sex and no children out-of-wedlock.
Former President John F. Kennedy said: Ask not what your country can do for you – ask what you can do for your country.
I’m blessed to able to give back and fight for my country. Recently, I had the opportunity to speak to The Remembrance Project in Washington, D.C., along with Steve Bannon and other great Americans about the need to secure the border and stop illegal immigration. I’m fortunate to host a national radio and TV show that allows me to get the truth out to more people.
As a result, people are realizing that there’s no such thing as “racism” and that our battle is not physical; it’s spiritual.
Without God, you can’t have a real life, and I see people turning toward God all the time. They’re not afraid to openly support good men like Donald Trump, Roy Moore and others who are committed to putting God and country first.
I urge you to pray and get to know yourself. Reflect on life and be thankful to God for bringing you through the difficult times.

Hi,
No disrespect intended, but have you lost your mind? The man in the White House is a culmination of the worst aspects of society. I am shocked that you, of all people, would shamelessly endorse such a dreadful, hateful, bigoted individual. Clearly, you need to take a real, hard look at your belief system.
Heaven help us all.
Call the COON PATROL !! Da massa’s favorite slave is in the House
This site by “Black Men” is so White it isn’t even funny! Wow you can’t convert people just on the name of your site & your “Fake A$$” articles aren’t going to do it either!
So what is this website anyway? The 7 black guys who voted for trump? Tokenism 101? Or are you all being held hostage? Wow, Stockholm Syndrome is real
Thank you for the most baseless, factless, biased, misinformed fascist article I’ve read since trump took office. Do you actually know what the word “research” means? You’ve clearly done nothing outside of twitter and breitbart. I love how you can claim “racism” doesn’t exist. How is that exactly? are you saying it never existed in this country? Because unless you’re making that claim, only a fool could think that half a generation after we had segregation and lynching in the streets that we just magically cleared al that up. I know Christians are big on magic these days, but we’re talking about reality here: real life. I have older black friends who have seen their friends lynched and burned alive, in this lifetime. But that’s just all gone right? No remnamts of that lying around right? Oh wait! You literally used the words “great White hope” to describe trump. I guess you’d be referring to his alliance with Steve Bannon and David Duke? I guess you’d be referring to the KKK endorsing him and winning him the presidency? I guess you’d be referring to his inability to call out white supremacists and Nazis? Let me guess- you’re one of those people who thinks a liberal is worse than a Nazi. Why did we fight World War II to defend democratic liberal values against fascist tyranny for you nutjobs to just elect a Nazi-lover? Did your grandfather fight in World War II? Mine did. He’d be embarrassed by your “great white (orange) hope” and his love for Nazis and white supremacists. Did you use anything but baseless rhetoric in your entire piece? I didn’t come across one proveable fact. The reality is that trump hasn’t achieved a SINGLE LEGISLATIVE VICTORY in 11 months. Truly pathetic. He hasn’t even appointed an ambassador to South Korea yet he wants to go to war with the north. Nutjob. Oh and the economy – exactly what piece of legislation are you referring to that has “saved the economy”? He hasn’t passed anything? And do you know anything about politics and economics? Econ 101 teaches us that no amount of legislation – even if trump had passed a single one – can change the economy in less than a year (let’s remember that one week into his term, the president was touting the economy, which any fool knows he couldn’t have changed by then). Every Econ freshman knows that it takes years to see the benefits of economic legislation. You are touting Obama’s economy when you give us those numbers – they’ve been steadily rising for 2 years now and that is continuing because trump has yet to fully dismantle obamas system. I guarantee you that in 5 years we will feel the affects of trumps changes – with another massive economic collapse that we won’t recover from this time. Why do you think that there was a crash right at the end of Bush, and there hasn’t. Even one since, in the eight years of Obama? Why do you think that is? I wouldn’t expect you to have the desire or the capacity to ponder on that question, but the facts should be pretty obvious to anybody willing to actually observe them and do basic entry level research. But you live in the trump era where facts are irrelevant, hence why you can make absurd unsubstantiated claims. But thank you, for proving that racism is still very much alive and well
