    After winning two Olympic Gold medals, gymnast Simone Biles took a jab at Donald Trump and J.D. Vance.

    https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-new...appears-take-jab-trump-olympic-win-rcna164833

    I love my black job”, she tweeted on X.

    This was in reference to Trump’s definition of a “black job”.

    A black job is anybody that has a job, that's what it is. Anybody that has a job," he said.”

    J. D. Vance also has his moment of criticism about Simone, when he was critical of her vulnerability. At that time, she acknowledged that she had a problem. It’s “weird” to be critical of that, or to be critical of people who understand Simone’s vulnerability.
    “”
    I think it reflects pretty poorly on our sort of therapeutic society that we try to praise people, not for moments of strength, not for moments of heroism, but for their weakest moments," Vance said at the time.

    Many social media users have called out Vance in Biles' defense, with one writing: "What the heck has JD Vance ever done that is better than what Simone Biles has done and continues to do?"”

    JD appeared on the Oprah Winfrey show as a child and yelled at the audience regarding his religion. So there's that, I guess. Lol

    No one asked Trump to be more specific. He was talking about “black jobs” that are being given to immigrants. I don’t think Simone has to worry about her job.

    Again, how do you define "black jobs?" That is the question.

    What Simone Biles did was dig at Trump with "her job" as an Olympic gymnast. That is earned and not given by DEI. We had two minority women win a medal in the women's all around. Simone won gold and Surisa Lee, the next prodigy in Olympics, won bronze. The Brazilian woman won silver. On the mens side. no American won, but all were Asian men who won. Japan won gold, and China won silver and bronze.

    Why would black jobs go to immigrants and not white or Asian jobs?

    A MAGA interpreter should always be at Trump's side when he speaks.

    Immigrants aren't taking white jobs. They are taking black jobs. Blacks who are losing their jobs to immigrants understood exactly what Trump was saying. Too bad Kamala wasn't there to address the issue.

    Any resemblance of this comment to racism is purely coincidental.

    We can always tell when a liberal gets butt hurt, they cry racism or sexism or any other ism they use. You don't own the labels.

    Democratic governors must be secretly hoping Trump wins. Massachusetts is expected to spend over a billion dollars the next four years to house migrants.

    Migrants won't be taking Simone's "black job" anytime soon. Simone is part of the elite class so she isn't worried about poor blacks. She had an opportunity to address poor black issues but she didn't.

    Do you hope what you just made up will stick? Tip, it doesn't stand any chance, just like Trump. Maybe he'll get a black job...

    She can jab at Trump as much as she wants, it doesn’t make what Trump said any less truthful. Migrants do tend to take jobs that by majority are black jobs. She obviously has risen above the norm and good for her. But by and large, here in America, her job of gymnastics, is not a black job. It’s a shame that she as a black woman doesn’t understand the facts of the average black job and would rather poke fun and try to ignore those issues. Her credibility in my opinion was diminished by her ignorance to the situation

    Are you in Russia then or just flailing around with gas and a match?

    What's wrong with Trump getting a black job?

    I hope the average black American is witnessing the ignorance that rich blacks have to their situation. It’s obvious that they have no desire to address this issue.

    Good for her. Isn't she the chick who had a nervous breakdown and had to cancel her big tour after her last olympics?

    Add "black jobs" to the endless list of other talking points rightists don't know the definition of.

    Maybe the definition they choose for this will make more sense than the one they chose for "woke." Lol
