After years of being left out of the Marvel Universe as the arch-nemesis to everything black, including Colin Kaepernick, Eric Holder, Barack Obama, the NAACP andโno, Iโm not kiddingโlove, Bill Owens, the infamous negro pastor and possessor of the homophobic Infinity Stone, finally got his day in the sun when he was invited to the White House to play the role of a prop in Donald Trumpโs futile attempts to prove heโs not racist.

Amid his ongoing series of unhinged, intermittent rants against Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.), the โSquad,โ Al Sharpton and anyone who doesnโt need to โlay outโ to get a little color in their skin, Donald Trump invited Owens and a handful of other churchless pastors to the White House on Monday for a photo-op that he will probably use as mugshots when he finally decides to send his detractors back to the โrat-infestedโ โshithole countriesโ that they came from.
CNN reports:
Twenty members of the faith community gathered in the Oval Office to meet with President Donald Trump on Monday, according to one of the participants. Rev. Bill Owens, the controversial founder of a conservative religious organization, said the President did โmore talking than listeningโ during the event, which was long-scheduled but came after Trump disparaged a top African American lawmaker over the weekend.
Trump tweeted ahead of the meeting that he was โlooking forward toโ a meeting โwith wonderful Inner City Pastors!โ The meeting was not open to press but afterward several of the attendees answered a few questions.
โTwo hours of discussion, thatโs not a photo-op,โ Owens said defending the length and substance of the meeting. He said the leaders discussed โthe issues facing the black community, and there are many.โ
If you have no idea who Rev. William โBillโ Owens Sr. is, do not be ashamed. While the 80-year-old right-wing preacher claims that he marched with Martin Luther King Jr. as a civil rights leader in Nashville, Tenn., no one, including Nashville historians, organizers and archivists can find any evidence that he ever did so. He is a staunch conservative who denigrated Barack Obama, fought with the NAACP and, most importantly, fought against the growing scourge of peopleย marrying whomever they want.ย
But a few years ago, as he was preaching the doctrine of โAdam and Eve, not Adam and Steveโ with anti-gay conservative organizations like the Family Research Council and the National Organization of Marriage, Owens started using a tactic often employed by these groups. He simply created an organization with an official-sounding nameโin this case, the Coalition of African American Pastors (CAAP)โbuilt a website and started issuing press releases as if he represented an actual section of the black religious population. Since then, CAAP has called for former Attorney General Eric Holderโs impeachment for supporting marriage equality and has asked Nike to sever ties with Colin Kaepernick who it says โhas become synonymous with radical anti-American sentiment.โ
Curiously, the CAAP never lists its members or takes group photos. Owens has been lobbying for an invitation to the White House for years, to no avail, after comparing Barack Obamaโs support for same-sex marriage to supporting child molestation. Although he claims to have secretly counseled Trump four or five times at the White House, Owens insisted that the public visit was not a response to the feud with Cummings. Explaining that it was โhard to believeโ that Trump was racist because he has done so much for the African American, Owens almost broke down in tears lauding the white nationalist-in-chief.
โHe wanted to know from us what should he do in America,โ explained Owens as the taste of Trumpโs boots marinated on his tongue. โHeโs right sometimes. Heโs never given credit for doing anything.โ
After the press conference that the press wasnโt allowed to attend, Trump dispatched his league of pulpit-less preachers to explain why Trump wasnโt racist. Apparently, they were instructed to make three points:
Black unemployment: While it has dropped from 7.8 percent to 6 percent during Trumpโs presidency, none of them mentioned that black unemployment fell from 16.8 percent to 7.8 percent under Obama.
Criminal justice reform: The groundbreaking First Step Act has freed more than 3,100 prisoners, 91 percent of whom were black according to a U.S. Sentencing Commission report. Of course, the reforms that freed those prisoners were forced into the bill by Democrats.
Jesus likes Trump: Because heโs stopping the baby-killing and the communism.
Owens appeared on CNN with Don Lemon last night and explained that Trump isnโt racist because he attacks everyone, not just black people, explaining: โI donโt remember him saying anything about colored leaders, leaders that are colored.โ
The rest of Thomasโs nieces and nephews continued their missionary work on Tuesday morning when Martin Luther King Jr.โs niece, Alveda King, appeared on Fox & Friends.
โHeโs not a racist,โ declared King as her uncle rolled over in his grave. โAbsolutely is not, and the programs he has moved forward, the higher job market is helping African Americans, the criminal justice reform is helping African Americans. What the presidentโs simply saying is your communities need to be fixed and he said to Representative Cummings, Elijah Cummings, who actually said either abort the babies now or youโll kill them later. He says things like that and then you look at his community and you see individuals suffering, communities suffering, and families suffering.โ
King, Owens and the negro Trumpians are not meant to be apostles for the MAGA messiah. Instead of apologizing for the presidentโs racism, they have offered themselves as a living sacrifice for Trumpโs minions to justify their racism and paint themselves as truth-tellers, conservatives and patriots. If there is one thing Trumpโs โfaith leadersโ and followers all have in common, itโs that they all believe they serve someone who omnipotent and infallible.
And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. โ Acts 4:12
Trump is good, all the time.
And all the time...
