All of us have that one person in the family that no one likes to invite to the family cookouts, who never gets invited to the graduation parties, and is only allowed at funerals. Well, even President Obama can’t escape having one of those family members and it just happens to be his half-brother. President Obama’s Kenyan brother has decided that he wants to go against the grain and “Make America Great Again”.
Why you ask? Because he’s “deeply disappointed” in his brother’s administration after being a longtime Democrat. (AKA he’s just a hater and mad that he is not his brother.)
I know there’s a Bible story that can be referenced here from children’s church, but I’ll leave that be and instead just say, Malik you are not invited to the family reunion.
When speaking to the New York Post, Malik Obama does give his reasons as to why he believes he should swing his vote in the opposite direction of being free.
“I like Donald Trump because he speaks from the heart. ‘Make America Great Again’ is a great slogan. I would like to meet him,” he said.
Can someone in the Obama family please come tell their cousin that it’s not his heart Trump is speaking from but instead a teleprompter filled with broken promises, lies, and a good reason to move to Canada if he wins. Malik Obama says the email leaks from Hillary Clinton was the straw that broke the camel’s back.
“She should have known better as the custodian of classified information,” he said.
I mean aren’t we all mad about it? But that doesn’t mean I’m gonna swing my vote to a side that has built a slogan but not a campaign response or platform to saving black lives.
What we, including President Obama, don’t need right now are more click bait stories about people desperate to make this election about them and not about the issues. Dear half-brother, were you this vocal about the innocent black lives that mattered? Does your voice only carry weight when it comes to controversy? See, this is why you made the executive decision to uninvite yourself to the family reunion and why no one wants to eat your potato salad. Don’t even bring ice or paper plates. You’re not welcomed.
As if we didn’t have enough problems with the orange gremlin and these leaked emails, here you go having to add your two cents and on the side of a man who will only give you attention because you’re the President’s hating half-brother. Donald Trump only sees black people when they have a number on their back or sell their soul to sit at a boardroom table with him and pretend his semantics embrace diversity (Hey, Omarosa boo!).
This is why you are banished from attending the family functions. You don’t know how to act right in front of mixed company. So no I don’t want your ribs because I can’t trust that you brined them things right and are at least faithful to one barbecue sauce.
I know it’s hard growing up in someone else’s spotlight and feeling the need to steal some of their shine. Just ask Trump’s wife about how not to steal from greatness. The next time you make me click the bait and give you more than 30 seconds of fame, it better come with a call to action.
