Trump tells Fox News the 'Black Lives Matter' sign on Fifth Avenue is like he's being 'prosecuted'

Snip

President Donald Trump appeared to reveal another quid pro quo during an interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity.

MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell pointed it out during an interview with Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA).

“I was very nice to Mayor de Blasio. I got him ventilators when he needed them… I got him the gowns. I got him the masks. I got him everything. Then he throws a big Black Lives Matter sign right down in the middle of Fifth Avenue. I was so good to him and to Gov. Cuomo, like nobody’s ever been good. And then all you end up doing out of that place is getting prosecuted.”

was to whine on the teevee and of course his partner in misinformation obliged. Next best thing when you can demand an instant rally.

Sounds like a Freudian slip to me. "Someone" is worried about when he leaves office I see.

And you should be happy that NYC has beautified your neighborhood. To make it even more beautiful they should raze Turd Tower.

He's previously said it's a hate symbol...but when ask about the confederate flag, his racist ass said it was a "freedom of speech" issue.

Fuck you Donnie, you racist asshole. Thanks for showing your true colors

So much to choose from, but when we get down to the nitty-gritty, there won't be any doubt in your wicked mind. The SDNY and Congress just need to get their ducks in a row...won't be long.

Everyone knows that Fifth Avenue is there for the purpose of a sociopath named Donald shooting people and getting away with it. Forget about any prosecution, persecution, restitution, or whatever!

I read it as one of those leaps in the conversation where a tangent emerges without warning. He was whining about the BLM sign and what he thinks he did for the local politicians, and this is where the leap comes, he laments their thanklessness by complaining that New York, all of it as an entity, not being thankful do nothing but prosecute him in return which reveals his real concern, the charges coming when he's out of office.

Yikes, I almost hurt myself articulating that!
