He was actually thinking of Patti LaBelle.

Aretha used to play the Trump TajMahal all the time, usually in a double bill with Fredrick Douglas.

Binro the Heretic - 2018-08-18 Oh, well that makes this not disrespectful or in poor taste at all, then.
Fuck Trump and fuck you.

Mister Yuck - 2018-08-18 Binro, you might want to reread John's comment with an eye on its tone.

Binro the Heretic - 2018-08-18 Sorry for being a dick, but assholes are already defending him with, "Well, she performed at Trump-owned casinos, so it's okay that he said that."

John Holmes Motherfucker - 2018-08-19 Well, he wasn't being racist, obstructing justice, or being a pathological liar, so congratulations, America, this time he was just being a dick. It seemed like he was trying to make his remarks personal, and he just failed horribly, which isn't a political issue, it's just really fucking sad. All he had to do was insert some boilerplate vaporing about how Aretha was classy, or how moving her voice was, or about how she embodied America, and he would have done what presidents are supposed to do on these occasions. It wasn't a crime, which is only worth mentioning because there actually seem to be crimes with this president. It was just a dick move.

Binro the Heretic - 2018-08-19 I'd say there was racism involved in pointing out a Black woman who made numerous major accomplishments throughout her life, "worked for you."
It's, like, "Yeah, she did all this really awesome stuff & was beloved by millions, but I was still the boss of her."

Hah, his syphilis ridden brain probably doesn't even know who the fuck she is. Probably thought it was a hotel maid he tried to fuck once or something....
