Trump removes Martin Luther King bust from White House in latest disrespectful move

The move comes as Donald Trump hosted pundit Charlie Kirk, who’s called the Civil Rights Act a “huge mistake” that has diminished the existence of white Americans

1. Donald Trumps White House

Does not deserve a bust of MLK.

“Diminished the Existence of White Americans?” Low self esteem Charlie? You do not possess marketable skills? Easier to hate than to be productive?

[Biophilic]

29. No Charlie, only you can diminish your existence.

And yes, you do a good job at that.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

2. I'm kinda shocked that it took the racist in chief this long to have the bust removed.

[DENVERPOPS]

13. Did you see

where, for the first time in History, the NCAAP didn't invite Trump to their annual convention???????????????

[MarineCombatEngineer]

17. Yes, and appropriately so.

Why would the NAACP invite a raging racist to their convention?
Just a rhetorical question.

[forgotmylogin]

20. This is infuriating, but...

I understand - the resident family can redecorate however they want and that's expected with a president who is a racist and displays it in every action.

My major concern is the bust is stored carefully or given to a museum and not destroyed. That way a new administration can restore it.

[Donman]

3. MAY TRUMP REAP WHAT HE HAS SOWN.

[DENVERPOPS]

35. My idea of a good time

would be to lock him in a room with his ex-wife, all the women he has ever molested/raped, a group of young girls he and Epsein "entertained" and a whole big bunch of top Dem Women Politicians, like WARREN, that he has called despicable names...........

[kentuck]

4. He's digging down into the deepest parts of his evil soul...

...to try to find something else to divide the people with. It is either evil or insane? Perhaps both?

[milestogo]

5. There can't be two "kings" in his world.

6. African Americans Will Not Be Provoked

These little petty acts the convicted felon is doing trying to remove artifacts will not provoke African Americans to go out in the streets to be beaten and terrorized by his thugs. We are sitting this out as we tried to convince people of all races that this convict was a nut case. We voted overwhelmingly 92% women, 77% men for the Democratic candidate, not simply because she was African American, but more importantly because of the danger this idiot posed for the country.

We did not for CVOVID-19, like everyone else did. However, because so many races despise us as a race, the end result is this second disaster that is developing in this country. We have always been first at being disrespected and mistreated in this country. It is simply too bad that people of other races could not convince their family members, friends and associates to wake up and smell the coffee.

Let him remove everything that represents the achievements of African Americans in the White House and convince people to remove DEI, we are staying our black asses of the protest lines. WE VOTED ON NOVEMBER 5TH 2024 FOR DEMOCRACY!!!!!!!

[Silent Type]

7. More evidence trump takes roll of racist-in-chief seriously. Article does indicate it was moved to dining room.

The MFer loves to do this kind of chit, pandering to white wing racists/bigots.

[D_Master81]

8. As a white male

It’s about time someone recognized the “diminishing of the white race” (sarcasm)

[a kennedy]

23. you did hear of the white farmers filing a discrimination suit didn't ya???

A group of white farmers has filed lawsuits against the government, claiming discrimination in federal assistance programs that favor minority farmers. They argue that these race-based policies violate their constitutional rights by denying them equal treatment in financial aid and loan programs.

9. Unfortunate, but it just happened to be exactly where Taco King

was planning to place his prized statue of Adolf Hitler dressed as Rocky.

[ancianita]

10. The public declaration of his racism.

Those who back him are racists, too, and have no problem with the removal of the bust that has honored a peaceful Christian who wanted a just peace for all.

[Harker]

11. Trumpsky's always a big bust.

[GenThePerservering]

12. Dr King is a hero, a leader and a great inspiration...

you're just a dumb fuck, Dump. Removing MLK's bust doesn't change that, nor does it diminish Dr King's legacy.

[Submariner]

14. Snowflake is getting even for the NAACP dis-invite

trump has bigger problems in this country of immigrants. Not only does the NAACP dislike this moron.

Tehran may be Iranians in the U.S. waiting for orders to go after trump's kids. Melanie would be pissed if she lost her anchor baby, because her asshole husband's false flag attack.

[kimbutgar]

15. Also he was not asked to appear at the NAACP meeting this year

first president not invited. Steven Miller probably had that bust taken down when he heard that.

Steven Miller is our shadow president because the orange taco Hitler is in the midst of the throes of dementia.

[purple_haze]

16. According to this it was moved

https://blackpressusa.com/mlk-bust-quietly-removed-from-oval-office-under-trump/


What is the private dining area and how often is it used?

[maxsolomon]

21. It's in the West Wing where most of the staff is.

Right off the Oval Office. It's one of the rooms Trump decompensated in on J6.

[Liberal In Texas]

40. And it's a room that isn't photographed because it's a private area.

[IronLionZion]

18. It's called the White house, not DEI house

The type of comments seen from MAGAts on social media.

[slightlv]

19. No its called the peoples house

And maybe we ought to start thinking like magats on how to take it back from the nazis.

[Iris]

22. He's not been invited to NAACP meeting. He's show us all who he is.

It's his WH for the next 3.5 years - there should be no doubt what kind of monster he is by then.0

[Grim Chieftain]

24. Evil racist bastard

And he's still in the White House, in power. He is a disgrace and a threat to our democracy and those who enable him are complicit.

[LudwigPastorius]

25. He's just like his KKK slumlord dad...

Trash

[Raven123]

26. Should add fuel to the July 17th No Kings protests

[democrank]

27. POS

Plain and simple

[sakabatou]

28. It just keeps getting worse.

[Johonny]

30. Kirk proof hiw unimpressive a white male

You need to be to be successful in America. He is proof he is wrong 😀

[Ilsa]

31. Inviting Charlie Kirk to the WH is a pretty big slap

in the face for decent people, no matter their race. Kirk's presence leaves a stain of evil energy that will need exorcising by shamans, priests, wiccan witches, mullahs, and rabbis, for starters. I suspect someone working there burns sage occasionally to prevent being conscripted by evil.

[Ping Tung]

32. Did he replace it with a statue of himself wearing a poiny hat?

[Lulu KC]

33. I'm seeing a thought balloon over Dr. King's sculptural head

"Thank God. Get me out of here!"

[wolfie001]

34. Always laugh and mock at this stale, white, racist pig

[Maru Kitteh]

37. "impending" on my rights?

I dispair.

[wolfie001]

39. Yes, spelling's a bit off

But the 4head is spot on.

[Maru Kitteh]

36. "diminished the existence of white americans"

Where the actual fuck do they come up with this dribble?

[Totally Tunsie]

38. Just in time for the Juneteenth holiday.

I'm surprised the bastard hasn't decried and reversed the significance of this distinction yet.
