trump says Aretha Franklin 'worked for me on numerous occasions'

[spanone]

he hires African Americans

fuck you dictator don

he was in a cabinet meeting and this was his 'tribute' to her

[Johnny2X2X]

1. He's disgusting

He's trying to belittle her because she's black. She worked for him? Giving a concert at a venue with your name on it doesn't mean she worked for you, why bring that up?

[dalton99a]

20. Every nonwhite in America is below him.

[htuttle]

2. Shut the fuck up, Donny

You're out of your element again.

[unblock]

3. Me me me!!!!! Talk about meeeeeee!!!

[spanone]

5. the most disgusting being on earth.

[unblock]

6. But here we are talking about him....

[spanone]

7. more like exposing him

[3catwoman3]

13. I'm glad you just said "being," and not...

..."human being." He is an evil alien life form who draws energy from being mean and destructive.

[spanone]

14. it was on purpose.

[3catwoman3]

16. I thought so.

Just figured you might appreciate knowing someone "got" it. back atcha!

[spanone]

17. thanks!

4. Sees her singing at Obama

Hes green now

[boston bean]

8. I hate him.

[Grammy23]

9. It is always about him.

Even in her death, he figures a way to try to belittle her by claiming to be her employer. Screw you, tRump. No way you are fit to even comment on the undisputed QUEEN. Hate to inform you but when YOU die (sooner rather than later, oh, please!) there will be no weeping, wailing or gnashing of teeth. Instead a loud hurrah will erupt across the world! Good bye to rotten rubbish!

[nolabear]

10. It's all he's got. He has no friends. He just pays people.

And of course he has to make it about him.

[MiniMe]

11. *sometimes* he pays people

Quite often he "hires" them and doesn't pay

[nolabear]

12. True dat. I'd BET he paid the Queen.

Talk about don’t play. Aretha didn’t play.

[RainCaster]

15. "and I stiffed her every time"

Fucking sleazeball

[leftynyc]

18. That's right, you pig

You had to PAY her to have her sing for you. Unlike Pres Obama who she gladly sang for.

[Different Drummer]

19. By way of contrast, a comment from a real President.

Aretha helped define the American experience. In her voice, we could feel our history, all of it and in every shade—our power and our pain, our darkness and our light, our quest for redemption and our hard-won respect. May the Queen of Soul rest in eternal peace.

21. I heard the old fuckstick

Say something about "best wishes." Best wishes? Asshole.

[moondust]

22. He hires African Americans?

I'm getting a sense that he hasn't liked Affirmative Action for a long time. The recent discussion of his racism has produced a clip of him in 1989 telling Bryant Gumbel the whopper that:

“A well-educated black has a tremendous advantage over a well-educated white in terms of the job market…if I was starting off today, I would love to be a well-educated black, because I really do believe they have the actual advantage today.“

I'm guessing that was him trying to undermine Affirmative Action.

23. Asshat can't say two sentences without (badly) reading them.

Not an ounce of sincerity in his black heart.

[nolabear]

24. Here's what I found.

Yeah, she sang at a casino. She was at a hotel opening. Back when he was just a guy who owned the joint and she was The Queen.

25. he lies about his lies.

[workinclasszero]

26. Disgusting, filthy POS!

[sweetroxie]

27. WTF! was she The Help?

[highplainsdem]

31. Of course he'd see a black woman that way.

[BannonsLiver]

33. If only she had baked him a "special" pie like in the film.

[jrthin]

29. I loathe this fuc#ing man! nt

[Blue_Tires]

30. classy to the end...

[BannonsLiver]

32. Keep her name out of your mouth, pig.

[Ferrets are Cool]

34. Him even uttering her name makes me want to PUKE. nt

[Hortensis]

36. When I learned Aretha got money up front for performances I loved her even more.

If she performed for Russian asset, loser donny chances are he had to hand over a bag of cash, around $24.000.00. Shed put it under the piano at some performances, pick it up and walk off stage with it. She in addition to being very talented she was also very smart. here's a link to one her riders:
