Once upon a time, when I was editing this newspaper’s opinion pages, somebody decided that it wouldn’t hurt to have a slightly more cordial relationship with the Rev. Al Sharpton.
So there we were, in a Manhattan steakhouse, discussing not much because it quickly had become clear that Sharpton enjoyed being New York’s premier racial grievance-monger, so there was no common ground to be had.
But he did show a flicker of interest in a $350 cognac on the after-dinner menu — glancing over with amusement in his eyes as the waiter hovered. “If you do, reverend,” I said, “I’m asking for separate checks.”

How come the IRS doesn't push back against Sharpton?

Oh no, demonrats must all have their panties in a twist since Al is finally losing his race baiting influence except for NYC. I wonder how many times he's visited in de Blasio's office seeking favors for himself.

In re #1, it's because Sharpie has more melanin in his skin than we do.

Like to live long enough to see old Al reap the results of the Tawana Brawley story. Even Bill Cosby got as far away from that racist lie. Not enough of our fellow Black Christians make a stand against all the lies and evil this guy has spread in the culture.

Decent article which would have been much better without the Trump bashing.

Thank you President Trump for having the courage to tell the truth about Sharpton, an ignorant, evil man who has been off limits to a corrupt and dishonest media. Many other people in politics and public life, know the truth about him and others, but are afraid to publicly speak that truth for fear of name-calling and career destruction.

Ditto, #5. McManus only told the truth about Sharpton; he misspoke about President Trump.

# 1, because Sharpton is also a 'song man' for the FBI which he denies. If it were not the case NY'ers have wondered how this low life got away with not paying taxes that the rest of us. This trash guy isn't much different than Revrum Jackthon…… in the old days you just sent in for a 'revrum' certificate, $129 and you were a 'certified' preacher. I doubt he knows the difference between Moses and Jesus.

I am sick of seeing Sharpton’s mug on TV. He is a phony, a conman. Egotist extraordinaire. He is not welcomed on my TV.

Tucker made a suggestion last night, just give Sharpie $1 million to shut his pie hole about anything Trump related.

The real reason the IRS doesn't bother The Rev was explained to me once 30 odd years ago by a neighbor who worked for them. The IRS actually did raid his house in New Jersey (at the time) and found EVERYTHING in it ... from the suits in the closet ... to the stove ... to the t.v ... to the sofa ... well, basically everything of value had a label on it saying something like: "Property of such-and-such church". There was nothing to seize in the house that belonged the Rev as all of the property was "on loan" to him from one charity or another and didn't belong to him. Basically, Old Rev Al "owns nothing"! I'll bet nothing has changed.

#1, judging from photos taken during the Obama administration, over fifty percent of the IRS employees shown were of the same skin coloring as the Rev Sharpton so they aren't going to touch him. We are stuck with him until he dies, just like the Clintons, the Obamas and a host of other "untouchables." Don't get your hopes up though, they are grooming many more to take their places.

Trump University, Trump casinos and bank defaults, Trump Steaks, Trump payoff of porn stars and playboy models, Trump campaign 126 contacts with russians, Trump campaign manager handing over voting data to russian intelligence official..... so what were you saying about con men among us? Perception is not reality no matter how hard you try to promote it. Particularly a perception that Trump is anything other than what he has shown himself to be. Remember he is the guy who said the Central Park 5 should be executed... of course it was later proved they were innocent. Trump is the same guy who paraded around NY City with his mistress before and after getting a divorce from his wife. Like I said he is exactly what he continually tells us he is.
