Even before and certainly after a man deposits his seed in the womb
of a woman, he has no rights over the control of her womb and the fruit
thereof. Male politicians need to stay out of all issues relating to the
body of women. Yes, stick to men's business! You'll be doing great if
you can handle men's issues, which is doubtful--alas, you may need the
help of women on these issues.
"Men don't know their asses from a
hole in the ground. They must ask their woman, Baby, where's my
asshole!" (from the monologue, One Day in the Life, a docudrama by
Marvin X)

when I jump my pussy jumps, therefore my pussy belongs to me!"

Donald, I have my own agenda but if I can help a human being, I will do so, so this is my message to you: Make no more statements about women, focus on American issues, international issues and men issues. Leave all statements regarding women to experts on your dream team. You claim you are a winner but you are acting like a loser and you will lose if you alienate women. I know you love women and I love women but your mouth can defy your ass so please shut up on women issues. Men love you because you speak like a man with his nuts out the sand, so don't alienate the women who are with you 100%, such as your wife, children and grandchildren. Again, I am not with you but I am not against you. --Marvin X

Dear Donald,
I write to you as the father of three daughters, six sisters, a mother, three mothers of my children and several women who impacted my life on the most deepest level and I am forever grateful to all the females in my life.
Most importantly, people who observe me in my private life, say I am most humble when in conversation with my daughters. Indeed, my daughters have taught me humility as per relations with the feminine gender. One reason is because as the father of two sons, one transitioned and one totally alienated, I had to fall back on my daughters for spiritual and emotional support. But much to my surprise, my daughters sent me into shock when I saw their elegance in representing aspects of my personality. It was then that I had to deconstruct my addiction to the patriarchal mythology. I saw my daughters represented every dream I had for my sons. This rocked my patriarchal world to the deepest level, and yet I was proud of my daughters for representing me and thus continuing the tradition every parent desires of his children, especially when the claim no connection with the family tradition. In truth, the DNA is so strong we continue the family tradition no matter what, yes, often in total ignorance we are carrying on every dream of the ancestors.
I note that you have two sons who are involved in your world and this is great. I don't know if you have daughters, but if you do, I'm sure you are not keeping them below the glass curtain. As parents, we want the best for our sons and daughters and we never know which of them will assume the authority of our desires because DNA is like that.
We can see in our deepest dreams our children take up the baton and carry on even though we have never had a conversation on the matter and they assume what they are doing is on their dime rather than ours.
Most often this is amazing to us when we see they are indeed in the tradition but don't realize it.
I desire only the best for my daughters. I do not want the glass ceiling to stop them from their life goals and, I must admit, they continue to excel, except one daughter who is yet excelling but has totally given up on America and its white supremacy mythology. "Dad, Ghana may not have electricity 24/7 but Ghana doesn't have white supremacy 24/7. When I go to a four star hotel, nobody follows me around in Accra. When I go to an expensive store in Accra, nobody follows me around. And I have no desire to raise my daughter in a white supremacy toxic environment. I urge you to join me in Ghana.
Donald,
I am not for you or against you--do your thing. But man to man, I suggest you say nothing else about women issues. As I watch you perform on the political stage, I wonder how many times can you shoot yourself in the foot. As I am known as a foot shooter myself, I suggest you back yo ass up a little for your sake and the American people you want to save from perdition.
I am a revolutionary Black nationalist so I have no problem with you as a white nationalist. Do your thang. As per your building a wall at the border, America has the right to seal her borders. Mexicans have many issues as you have pointed out. I love Mexico and Mexicans because this nation gave me refuge during my exile as a resister to the war in Vietnam in 1970. Not only did Mexico give me refuge, but I was there with brothers and sisters from throughout Latin America, e.g., Cuba, Dominican Republic, Venezuela, Columbia and elsewhere. We all are in gratitude for Mexico giving us refuge from US Imperialism. And yet this does not absolve Mexico for the slaughter of students at the University a few months before I arrived in 1970. This does not absolve Mexico for the disappearance of parents who came to the University looking for their children.
But what about US students who were slaughtered at Kent State and the Orangeburg massacure in South Carolina. Or the brutal, violent and longest student strike in American academic history at San Francisco State University to establish Black Studies and Ethnic Studies.
Even Michael Savage had had enough.
As
the insults and innuendos over candidates’ wives and tabloid reports of
suspected affairs dominated the back and forth between Senator Ted Cruz and Donald J. Trump,
Mr. Savage, one of the country’s most popular conservative radio hosts
and an ardent supporter of Mr. Trump, drew a red line last week.
“I’ve
supported Trump and probably still will, but if he won’t disavow this
guy Pecker and this story, I may withdraw my support,” he said on the
air on Friday. He was referring to David J. Pecker, the owner of The
National Enquirer, which published the allegations of sexual affairs
against Mr. Cruz. “I am not going to support anyone who engages in
assassination by innuendo,” Mr. Savage added.
But
on Monday, Mr. Trump and Mr. Savage reconciled in a mostly fawning
interview, with no apology from Mr. Trump, who nevertheless called The
Enquirer’s allegation that Mr. Cruz had affairs “garbage.”
The momentary rupture, however brief, was emblematic. As the fractures in the Republican Party over the candidacy of Mr. Trump grow deeper by the day, conservative talk radio is having its own identity crisis.
Long
a powerful and potent agitator of right-wing politics, conservative
radio hosts are one of the few forces that can sway the opinions of the
Trump electorate. And with Mr. Trump and Mr. Cruz now tearing each other
— and the party — apart, the biggest names in the field are delicately
navigating how to address Mr. Trump’s latest provocations without
alienating listeners.
“Talk
radio has a really unique way of being able to penetrate its way into
Republican primary politics around the country,” said Doug Heye, a
Republican strategist and deputy chief of staff for former
Representative Eric Cantor. If leading conservative hosts united in
opposition to Mr. Trump, Mr. Heye said, “in theory, it could absolutely
hurt him, in part because that’s where a lot of his supporters are.”
Conservative
talk radio is just as divided and conflicted on Mr. Trump as the
Republican electorate. Some advocate. Some criticize. And some try to
stay neutral — but that is no longer easy.
In December, Rush Limbaugh took issue with Mr. Trump’s harsh words
about Mr. Cruz and criticisms Mr. Trump made of Justice Antonin Scalia,
saying, “If you’re a conservative voter in the Republican primary,
these two things have got to raise some red flags for you people.”
