So. Who else saw this ad and said .. “I gotta read the comments” lmaooo
Me that’s the first thing I did when I saw that ad.
You right
On god lmaoo
Greg Samson you’re not alone.
The exact reason I am here xD
If I was fat, I would eat at Arby's, I would eat all the meats then I'd find me some treats.
If I was fat, I would get a good job, so I make that good money, cause I like to eat.
Lmao😂
I'm cryin lol
oh brother this guy stinks
I sang that with the song 😂😂😂😂
Do not let them divide us WE ARE ALL CONNECTED ! God Bless
It's time for us to stop hating one another and stand up and face the real enemy...!
king koopa
I wish that could be possible! Imagine? But selfish, human nature always takes control

When he's got his head on the black body is like he put in a cheat code for big head mode in GoldenEye 007 for N64
BaHAHAHAHA
Yeah definitely this artist is some kind of comedian artist. Though he thinks he's not, he thinks he's real political or something.
Thanks tyler
😀 I knew it was familiar, just couldn't place it 😀
rofl, dude, big head mode was crack lmao
When you see the "who's side is he on?" Comments and realize how well the divide and conquer tactic is working...
Yeah, he’s def in the middle. I believe he leans more right tho. I’m an independent leaning more right as well. I think this song was just understanding the other side. Not validating or agreeing with it.
Yep, u got it.
CIA are involved in the two parties.
Yup.
I'd say 80%of people are more right than left today cause the left is so far left it fell off a cliff and most people like freedom than total government control of our lives. And lower taxes.
Love the profound feelings some of his songs bring up
I am white and we are all in this fight together black and white stand together we are stronger When We Stand Together unstoppable don't let them divide us
#unitedwestanddividedwefall
Not standing with no one but black white ppl done toooo much to us to unite
I'm white as well and Finally someone who knows what they're talking about hell yes I'm there
I found the south african!!!
I see a lot of comments and it seems a lot of people don't understand this song. I'm more of a conservative than liberal but this song is symbolizing what black people are fed with all the time and what the mentality of an average black person is. We are told always that we are either minority, oppressed or less than and always a target. I personally don't subscribe to that and I haven't experienced first hand being a victim or a target by the system or by racism on a high level even tho we are at times! There are black people who become victims to the system like for example mass incarceration for minor offenses and longer sentences for similar crimes than their white counterpart. This is basically saying walk a mile in a black person's shoes and understand. The better we understand each other, the better we can do in bridging the gap between us. Remember Tom grew up around black people so he saw this first hand!
I 100% agree with you man. I lie in the middle of politics but I can't stand seeing woke liberals telling black people they are oppressed, or calling black conservatives traitors. It's all bs and seems so intolerant. Why are we teaching black kids they will never be as successful as white people? They will never have motivation to become someone great and successful. Or teaching white kids they need to feel ashamed? It's like people seem to think black people all have to think the same way, like why not treat black people like everyone else and accept their opinions like anyone else and let them vote/think however they want? I don't get it. We live in a backwards world where race is everything. We shouldn't let race matter at all and unite as people. Everyone's so divided and I feel like people can learn alot from people like you.
It's funny how this is one of the top comments but barely any likes, shows that most of Tom's fans only like the right leaning side of him instead of all of his message which is about the FACTS on BOTH sides.
Or it's a song made by a Canadian that didn't have any intentions of this left/right bs that you talk about, and he's just showing a satirical view of how certain people view the world.
@@katmertov5965 Normally I don't comment, but I saw yours and felt obligated. Im mostly center as far as politics goes, I agree a fair amount with both sides..the problem is once sides are picked people dig in and almost brings out some sort or tribal instinct in us to hate the other side..
but in my experience and relating to your comment we are all much better off loosening up a bit and trying to understand each others points of view and how we can achieve both "sides" goals with a little effort to further understand each other.
I liked Toms video and I subscribed a while ago, but generally don't do anything in the comments as I stated above so I guess I wrote this to tell you im sure there are large numbers of people who feel the same way we do that just dont comment or like anything down here.
*Edit: To add to that, in today's political climate lots of people on the "Right" side of the isle are angry about censorship(rightfully so imo) and Tom constantly rails against censorship and the forming of the media narrative against all of us citizens, so there's bound to be an influx of more right leaning individuals especially since Fox News did a whole segment and interview with Tom after Fake Woke came out.
@@katmertov5965 It barely has any likes because the OP is 3 days old whereas the video is over a year old (July 19th 2019).
To derive a swooping statement like that about the nature of his fans without factoring in time is misleading.
If a comment is up longer it will gather more likes.
Until I read the comments, I didnt realize it was supposed to shed light on what blacks in America are told. With that said, its not about just walking a mile in the others shoes or reaching across the aisle. To over simplify what George Carlin said, It's about knowing that those in control don't give a fuck about you and it's a big club, and you ain't in it.
P.S. Thank you to all the commentors that helped me realize this
That about sums it up.
We all need each other to understand each other..
Corporate Illuminati
Thank u for taking the time to read the comments and getting a grasp on wat he's tryna sry before going on a huge rant lol. It goes to show that his music really is accomplishing wat he's setting out to do ☮️💜
Glad you are looking with your eyes truly open now.
What I'm about to say is meant as a compliment, in no way am I suggesting that this video is anything other than what he intended it to be....
Having recently discovered Tom, I've made it through probably about 90 plus percent of his tunes.
And I've noticed something, and it stuck out to me but it never says it in any video:
So he's not only making the songs that project and amplify what he stands for and/or believes in....
He also writes songs that address the dichotomy, meaning from the opposite point of view, a more colloquial terms, he addresses his own stuff from the point of view of a "hater"....
As I was first listening, I would become curious about different aspects of his message, and usually within 3 to 5 songs later, I find a song that answers that question LOL....
So here's the big point, propaganda works very similar to what he's doing here.
Good propaganda created by good propagandists does not merely just put their message out there, they also put out a subset of the extreme version of their message....
(Which makes the main narrative sound like more of a compromise)
Then, unhinged, voices with no nuance and usually of a lower intellect with previously noted extremist views are artificially propped up by the very same people putting out the opposite message. They do this to ensure that the RATIONAL FREE THINKERS are suppressed and lost within all the noise.
This basically ensures that the average Joe never hears nuanced, middle path, across the board common Sense solutions to the very problems the people created that are offering the solutions.
This ensures that the idiot-average-Joe sees the insanity of some guy screaming about reptiles or people from Israel or pizzas.... It will be an immediate deterrent from even going down that road. However the extremely use will contain a percentage of Truth, and once it is determined that that part of the truth is associated with the crazy people, it automatically shuts down any conversation with people who actually dig deep and provide real unbiased information because of the inconvenience that crazy people are also raising hell about that matter....
What I'm saying is, his music kind of works like that. He has built a spider web of cultural structure that is three-dimensional where he's looking in on himself and then back at itself in every direction.
He's basically shutting down haters preemptively.
Also instead of suppressing the dark Truth, he puts his own flaws and negative attributes out ahead of anyone who may attempt to dox him or call him out.
He's built a very strong perimeter wall around his art. Just remember, if you don't understand how the mainstream narratives and propaganda work, listen to all these songs and then change the subject from Tom McDonald to whatever subject it is you're wondering about...
are u libreal?
That was a very deep comment/ I only discovered Tom yesterday and I have liistened to about 30 of his songs.
We should all be friends. Life sucks for all, take it up with those responsible, not your neighbor.

This man is so versatile he raps about everything and the best part is you can understand every word. Nova deserves so much respect for all her work and skills. Love her song Did your best!
Isn't he just ..I just love that about him...and yes his girl deserves just as much respect....bosses 💪💪💪 x
Does he? Because every song is rapping about how american politics sucks. I like his songs but literally every song is the same topic.
are u libreal?
he literally only raps about American politics how is he versatile?
I'm black and I used to like this guy but this song changed my mind. The kind of black people he's talking about is the type that don't take accountability or responsibility of their own actions. Today as I was sitting at my desk talking to my black female friend just about life and growing up. And I said have to say my life isn't perfect but my life is good. And as I was explaining to her the reason a lot of people lives are fucked up because they just don't listen. And the blacks that enjoy this video, I feel sorry for you. Since T Mick has the black ear he need to tell them they need to spend their money with each other instead of making excuses not to.
"who's side is he on?" Simple answer is neither, just a man realizing the problems on both sides
Hes doing a joyner lucas
Both sides are fucked but everyone is too woke to know it
Not really. He's pretending to be woke. I think he genuinely thinks he's doing good by "telling both sides" but honestly there is no middle ground with systemic racism. His yield to white supremacist's is not a middle ground that should be considered because it only strengthens their evil, yes - evil, mentality. If you are not an ally at this point, you are the enemy. I respect this dude for his songs regarding substance abuse but other than that, fuck him and fuck this "boo hoo, I'm white" message he's spewing.
@@Ticktacktoe2 But joyner lucas can doo it from both povs and its cool
Thank you. This song had me so confused for a moment. Idk. I mean I know I'm white and "privileged". It's honestly hard for me to understand how I'm privileged though. I feel like everyone is struggling. I suppose I wouldn't be able to understand unless I was actually walking in someone else's shoes. I don't want to be hated for that though. You get me?
I support the BLM movement but all of a sudden lately I feel like a target. I don't dare put my hair in cornrows. I don't dare even Lipsync the N word in a song....
I want equality for everyone, but why do I feel like I'm being attacked? I didn't do nothing to hurt anyone. I do not support or condone the system we live in. The time for change came like over a century ago. I was born in 88. Pls don't discourage the ppl who are not ignorant to the plight. Apologies for my rant. Happy New Year!
I'll stand with anyone who's standing against those elites who are Keeping us divided.
The thing is, we need to learn how to work with every one, see things by our eyes, not how they want us to see this. That means we also must work with elites, to make whole society stronger, it is not about attacking and fighting with enyone, it is about being a unit
Rich doesn’t only mean elite. Those elites are fighting with each other politically. Especially hypocrites socialist or capitalist whatever.
@@jusme4142 true, not every wealthy person has an elitist agenda. Many just work hard and make a lot of money. Props to those people who make it to that level through hard work and dedication.
Tom is an elite hes just good at hiding it trust me
@@stargate905 both sides are elites
I love how Tom can sing about anything controversial because he knows how to place himself in someone else's shoes and shows you what you would be like too. He makes me listen even when I don't always disagree. And sometimes I gain another perspective by listening to what he has to say. He makes me think and that's what matters. Tom is a gift from the creator. Period.
“black people face discrimination yo”
You: “Damn, this guy really makes me think! I just learned a whole new perspective today!”
United we Stand,
Divided we Fall 🙏
I’m black and I became fan number one of this guy, he is doing the real shit.
He flips flops sides to much.
🧢
@@travelingjohn69 I dont think he's flip-flopping sides... I think the man is actually woke and is pointing out how society hase taken the woke movement too far and is sick. I think Tom gets the vantage point of many Black Americans, but simultaneously acknowledges that nobody alive today is responsible for things that happened 400 years ago.I really feel like Tom's message has always been about togetherness and how those we should really hate are dividing us to set us against one another.
@@travelingjohn69 no he doesn't

@@jaytay69🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝
@@darksith7551Is there a problem with being proud of being white?
If you watch the behind the scenes of his video Whiteboy, it shows how he has the actors in his videos listen to his music so they know what its about and have the option to not even be in the video if they choose and still get paid. With that being said, you know damn well that if any one of those black guys standing behind Tom had an issue they would gladly let him know. But obviously they didn't and got the message. They look like they are backing him up and rocking out rather proudly. Only people who are mature enough can truly understand, appreciate and respect what Tom is doing.🤘
Either that or they thought he was an idiot and took the job for the money lol
I saw this video in a ad and I thought it was fake but damn

@@bigswan5142 You cleeearly aren't a good judge of rap talent or haven't heard all his songs.
Walk a mile..good message!
Well done!
Thank Tom for your voice and shedding light on issues that people are afraid to be honest
Lots of people aren’t getting the point of this song. Tom is pulling a Joyner, he’s just rapping the other perspective not condoning it.
Yea. He spoke out about it in Twitter. He basically said that White Boy was made to represent the white perspective and If I Was Black was to represent the black perspective
I can see that. And to be honest I can see why the other perspective sees things the way they do. Ad I can sympathize. I just think it’s inaccurate.
NO THE FUCK HE IS NOT YOU BITCH
He is not pulling a Lucas, that man is black and white, and his shit actually made sense, this is coming from a fan of both artist.
Najya Rae Jarrett your name is gibberish kid
This shit isn't "alt right". This is the middle ground. Quit the tribalism
Agreed, this is middle of the road but because it goes against the narrative of one side it is chalked up as an attack from the other side. Tom calls shit out from both sides and does it so well he is silenced.
Anybody know if he is the radio in any major cities yet?
Spot on
Tom lives in the middle and is trying to bring us there with him, love this dude for that...
Why do are police get training from israel, Why are White/European Countries being flooded with people that WE Were Never Asked asked about by OUR "Government", Why did Trump pardon Jonathan Pollard who then got on Sheldon Adelson *(Spell Check L.N.) plane & was flown to israel & greeted by Bibi, Why did General George Patton survive WW2, but didn't return breathing, What is the Balfore Declaration, Leon Trotsky made up the word racism in Russia to brow beat White/Christians, The word Nazi was a slur made up by the jewish press to slander the NSDAP,

I'm black and white, don't let the government divide us people we are United and strong. Tom is breaking the divide via his music, love him and YOU. ❤❤❤
I agree 100% I voted for trump not a single part of me is racist. I love everyone we all need to stand together as one and reunite instead of letting the media and government trying to divide all of us.
we keep dividing like this you are going to have to get split in half like a conjoined twin. It's stupid. My kids are mixed race and all of this racial division leaves people who are mixed race standing there like dafuq? I find it incredibly ironic that they took what Martin Luther King Jr said and tossed it to the wind.
So your half cast brother, cut me i bleed red that's what we all have I common brother

@@The_Crow_Flies absolutely 💯thats what I've told several people...and my friends who have a white wife ....this is dividing mixed race people.... its awful
He's not making fun of anyone, he's simply trying to see from their point if view. I don't think y'all get that.
Hes is only representing stereotypes
You are absolutely right. The group of men behind him rockin w it. I get the messege.

Makes him famous though
If I was black I would go back
My culture was removed from my family history, I was taught give respect to any individual, if they lose my respect that's on them as an individual, I never worry about their culture or blood line, your soul is the color you paint it.
That's how I was raised too.

I'm white/Spain an Native, my grandbaby is Black/white. A person should be PROUD of the heritage an where they come from an never be made to think it is ok for anyone to take that from them. Ignorance an hate needs to be squashed, the future can not evolve till we do today. I'd be pissed as hell too.

Wow! Y am I now just finding out about this song! Good song and it goes to show the understanding Tom has for our black brothers and sisters. In order to understand you have to listen really listen. If only we could be in each other's skin for a day or two could we really understand. Anyway I don't see color I wasn't raised like that nor were my kids. We see by character. In every race and in almost everything ur going to have ur good and bad.

Ed's HeadSpace, profiting of black fear? Do you know what this is based on? Have you carefully analyzed the song before making assumptions?
He wasn't.. i sat here listening to it first thinking.. ok.... but after i listened to what he was saying i was like ohhhh i see you...
I got this song as an ad &surprisingly i listened to the entire thing. It caught my attention as a black person. i like it
This is the only one of your songs I've heard that I can't feel or get behind the banter. It seems to encourage the everyday self destructive mindset that lives within black culture like cancer. If I was black, I'd want to get inside the system and change it from within, not throw myself pointlessly against a system I know can't be beaten from the outside and fight a war I can't win. Why die on it in January just to add my name to a list of others no one will remember, when no one will care about me cause they're too busy chanting the names of those doing it again in November?
He's just saying that he can see from different perspectives and empathize with them. It also spreads more awareness of what is happening in these communities.
@@artissubjective6279 My issue is that he is completely contradicting a lot of what he has to say in his other songs.

Check out his other content! “Facts” was some original truth
I wasn’t expecting it to be that good. This was too close to the bone and is why it didn’t blow up, I think.
I’m not black, and I don’t know the black experience fully but I have been a white minority my whole life. I was born in MS, went to public school, surrounded by poverty, now I live in Memphis, my first gf was black, I maybe been with more black girls than white girls. Idk how else to say it, but I think I DO understand my black brothers and sisters. And I think he nailed it here, fwiw. It’s just so close to the bone that it’s almost weird. But damn, to me at least, this a good somg

Ya but still. Pandering
Real shit
@@Langeta-kun pandering to who? I only recently started to acknowledge this rapper and I can tell he raps what he believes. He's not doing this to pander to anyone.
Oh yes Tom Macdonald is such a gosh damn philosopher. Speaks nothing but truth and has very logical reasoning ;)
The people in power often endorse the fighting between us, the people of America. The people in power love Black Lives Matter, Antifa, the Proud Boys, Neo Nazis, the KKK.... because all these groups have one thing in common.... they divide us into different groups so that the American people that the Constitution famously refers to as ‘We the People’ will be easy to divide and conquer. I hate it. This is not what America is about. America is about freedom and liberty to all, to pursue their dreams through hard work, strife, and helping others accomplish their goals as well. The black community is a shell of what it once was. If you haven’t heard of ‘Black Wall Street,’ look it up. It’s proof that it doesn’t matter if you’re black or white, you can be very successful in America. Look up Thomas Sowell while you’re at it. He was a great role model for anyone. I wish that the black community would have embraced his values instead of the gangster values that has lead to some of the problems felt in today’s culture. I wish that the white community would have embraced Milton Friedman instead of the Donald Trump culture that we have today.

I'm not allowed to have a pof account because I said that I'm a Patton Patriot. Wasn't even finished writing my bio and they permanent IP banned me :/
Why do we have Israeli made uzis in our schools? Anybody know?
Tom is a lyrical genius and a madman. I love it.
@Da Man Not true. Can't criticize Israel.
I knew I didn't trust that dude in the wheelchair at my office
I'm Korean by birth, American by adoption, raised by white parents who taught me to Love my neighbors as myself. So I don't think about people's skin color when I talk and befriend them. I don't care about the color of your skin, I care about the way you live your life. Are you respectful of your peers? Do you respect your elders? Do you obey the law? Do you fight to protect innocence? Are you good to homeless, animals, and children? Those are the things I look for in a person and that's what determines whether I like them or not.
But that's you darlin. He's talking about the bad seeds. They are everywhere if you just open your eyes. Shoot I agree with everything he said 💯 just youtube how many black people get harassment for mundane things like fishing or doing laundry at a laundry Matt. White privilege is a thing! Point blank.
I love you with all my heart Corey City of Buda Texas. I'll always fight for you my brothA
I came hear to see what ppl gotta say
Most of it is just dumb because they never watched his other videos and don't get the message
That's "here" fool!
On the bright side he brought together all the demographics by hating him
Bruh holy shit that’s the funniest shit I’ve read all summer
Blessings to you brother, stay REAL. Your going to be at the top for a long time. You'll only lose that spot to being murdered by the industry, die accidentally (will be a result of the above) or if a copycat overtakes you by biting your style backed by the top labels or if they find something to destroy your reputation or make you destroy yourself. Please stay safe brother and god bless you
☺️🫡☺️🫡🫡🫡🙏🙏
I love you you bro your songs touched my heart feels like am on another world
Playing next: “Whiteboy”.
the message just goes way over your head, you too slow to understand
Definetly Not what an ignorant response...
People trying to find conflict where none exist.
Derek Glasscock No, I didn’t say that. You assumed that’s what I meant. I think it’s interesting to listen to both songs to see the different perspectives. It’s what the artist intended to see it through different people’s point of views.
"Straight White Male" Actually. lol
"Racism made me racist and I am not the one to blame" "my pigment produces suffering" "if I was black the only role model I would be shown are the rich black rappers pushing guns drugs and hoes"
I didn't like his opinion on BLACK ROLE MODELS. Blacks have astronauts, a president, a gymnast, a golfer, a race car driver, country music artists, philanthropists, etc.
@Ralph Anderson lol you don't speak for all blacks.
@@tomodom9772 The entire song is about mocking stereotypes. When young kids and adults think about successful people regardless of race, it's usually within music, movie industry or sports.
I think you have to guide most people to good role models, 'cause the bad ones have a tendency of grabbing the attention.
@@tomodom9772 your missing the point brother. Hes saying most black kids look up to rich black rappers pushing drugs, money and hoes.
@@tomodom9772 What he's saying is that this system does not viciously promote, glorify or immortalize the excellent role models who are black anywhere near like they do horrible, stereotypical and degenerate role models. People tend to believe, follow and accept what they are fed the most.
I'm black and this is my favourite song
Let's not forget everything Tom and nova have it still holds truth not just the popularity
This isn’t controversial at all. This is basically what mainstream media scream at the top of their lungs every day. Felt like I just got done watching CNN.
Lol right. CNN the fake news champion.
Ross Hixon yep and I think toms been watching to much of it lol
I was wondering how I felt about this song, and wasn't sure how to saw it. You hit the nail on the head! I total thought he was better than this! I'm speechless now!
You all need more CNN and less fox news
@@jessicabarrett2740 lol yeah. If this song was about how many black people perceive their current status I could understand the message. Not sure that was what he intended, but either way it def click bait fodder. Gotta get the black demographic after he essentially offended the sensitive ones.
There's black face, then you got Tom with the black body.
Thats more like whiteface lol
"British colonizers have no culture of their own"
Tom: Nuh uh, we've got plenty of our own culture
"Oh really?"
Tom: Yeah
"Like what"
Tom: . . . Uh . . . minstrel shows?
@@MopedOfJustice but he aint british and the thing was that the british brought their culture with force to other cultures. Especially India. I know you like to joke but even bad jokes gotta be truthful.
@@davidamajako202 British-descended colonizers, I meant. He's Canadian.
That's where he draws the line😂
Peace & Love drives out War & Hate! The COLOR of blood is the COLOR we ALL are! I just rolled up on this, and WOW!!! This BLOOD is spitting the absolute truth! This song is now in my main playlist. Thank you Tom!
i know damn well y’all ain’t bumping this shit in the whip with a pretty girl in ur passenger’s seat😂😂😂
“What, you don’t like music that tells you to not be racist? C’mon bro!”
-tom fans probably
@@Ronnie.Raymond my man with the nas pfp salute sir
@@Drexlyy Thanks homie! 😀
People get confused listening to Tom. "Which side is he on?"
He is on everyones side ofcourse.
Yes sir agreed
there's no sides
There shouldn’t even be a side to be on
Kalleconda official Right. He’s enlightened, there is no “side” except for right and wrong.
Im confused on his political views some times
He is Canadian so he raps from his point of view, not a White American. He was so taken aback by the race cards people pull in America a lot, when in Canada it's not the same.
He has a little liberal in him. It shows in videos he makes like this. I mean sonically its good though
ok?
@Jimmy Rose Overall he's not a liberal but he not conservative either. Like he thinks black people are getting gunned down and targeted by cops etc. He's just never actually delved into some of the issues he talks about. This music video just showed his liberal side a little.
He is a freemason or Scottish Rite shill that does what he's told I believe
this is y toms such a great artist, not only did he make a song about being white and not being guilty but he also made a song about putting himself in the black communities shoes
Best song he did yet, deepest would be a better word
I'm a black man. I love every race! We need to stand together and do something about these furries and gender fluids tho. Let's get it bros!
Edit: To the snowflakes commenting... issa joke
✊
Dev Dash exactly only our struggle matters and no one else's! Just ours...
What do you want to do about em?
@@prehistoricwatergun0136 I don't know, but they just gotta go.
@@dominicd.20 Why?
My favorite part of the video is the black people in the background singing if I was black. LMAO.
Love it sooo much
holy crap. First time seeing this video. Ya - you call them out! Honestly I was in tears with my head in my hands at one point.
The title had me a bit concerned, but you id a good job with the lyrics and meaning. This one is gonna kick up a shitstorm though...
Revan The Dragon only with the idiots who don’t know their ass from their elbow and those that are to far into their own socially programmed mentality
Been saying he's gonna need to do a little investing.... In kevlar!!
I agree but the shitstorm about to pass thru will be created my idiots that have no common sense. For example We will probably see a comment on this video about how racist Tom is. Sad but true....
Jason Smith? Fuckin idiot?! Why...speaks the truth...he won’t end up like 2 pac! Ignoramous! Call P DIDDY...bitch
Hi.
White boy was his perspective and now this song gives you another perspective. Every is on here whining that it's a contradiction, it's not. It's about viewing things from all angles. The world could use more of that.
You just blew my fucking mind making me feel like a dumbass
Exactly. Thank you
Good shit brother
I agree great wording
About time someone saw that. I was reading all the comments and I thought I was the one missing something.
Am I the only one bumping this heavy still in 2023 💪💪🏻💪🏿
I am too ❤ love Tom, Adam and Nova ❤
I'd still be successful no matter what color I was. Success has nothing to do with color. Failure always has to do with excuses. This applies to everyone
Beto o'Rourke is gonna sing this at the next debate so he can pander to the black vote
In spanish! LOLOL
Beto is Obama in vanilla flavour.
🤣🤣🤣
i tried to wow react this

Why do I only hear his songs on YT?
