The accusation that [insert pub candidate here] is racist is the laziest, most predictable and typical comment from the left. Everyone except for their mindless idiot constituency is completely bored and deaf to the accusation. The left is the boy who cried wolf, the chicken who said the sky is falling. This a reason trump is doing well, people are tired of being attacked for not stepping into line without whatever crazy ass contrived issue the left is railing against.
In the case of Trump, I assume the racism accusations largely stem from his comments about the number of criminals illegally crossing the border into our country. That statement is undeniably true, and properly identifies a serious health, safety and welfare issue that is not being properly addressed by our federal government, and which federal government is actually obstructing the efforts of border states efforts to address.
Everyone is free to be distracted by the libtard from real tangible issues. Just know that you effort to bigot and stereotype other people into becoming bigots in fact is failing before your eyes.
I'm certainly right of center and I think Trump's rhetoric appeals to racists. I don't think that's contentious, given the KKK dude's endorsement.
Conflating the KKK across a homogeneous segment of society is pretty rough ridin' ridiculous. The KKK also endorsed Ben Carson. It's a handful of loons screaming for attention. It's far cry from the organization of your grandpa's southern democrats riding around lynching black people and terrorizing black neighborhoods. GMAFB.
There are no doubt racists in this world. I would venture a guess the labor unions who dutifully support democrats constitute a good portion of them. Trump isn't running against b.o., in case you haven't noticed. He's running against an elitist establishment crooked clinton. At least get the prejudices correct (sexism).
The left's slanderous marketing scheme of calling everyone racist, and parsing words and writing what was implied as overt and generally being terrible subhuman people has run its course. It's backfiring. Those fucks gave us b.o., now they're giving us trump.
I didn't say all trump supporters are racists, and I didn't even say Trump was a racist -- I just said that Trump's incendiary, anti-brown people rhetoric (from Syrian refugees to the rapist illegal aliens) appeals to people that are already pretty racist. Kind of an "all squares are rectangles, not all rectangles are squares" sort of thing. My point is that I think he's got the racist segment of the electorate pretty well cornered.
The people that think "'diversity' is a code word for white genocide" or whatever the phrase is are probably going to vote for trump.
I don't support the same ideals Trump supports. I don't share the same values as Trump. And I certainly don't consider Trump to be a guy I want running the country. So if Trump is the Republican nominee -- if Trump is what "Republican" means -- I'll have a very hard time considering myself a "Republican" moving forward.
I'm not really certain who's feelings we're sparing here by parsing this but Donald Trump is absolutely racist. He pointed to a golf club that "everyone can go to" as a sign that he isn't racist. The only other justification he has used that he isn't racist is to point to all of the low wage workers his businesses has employed. Normal people don't have to justify why they aren't racist but when your son is sitting down with a pro-slavery separatist, when you won't disassociate from white supremacists and the klan, when minorities are getting beaten up at your events and you not only refuse to repudiate the beatings but emphasize that the people deserve it, when minorities are bullied at your events for simply attempting to listen to a speech and you do nothing you absolutely have to prove that you aren't racist. He hasn't and won't.
LOL.
It's obamas secret service beating people up.
The notion that if you don't "immediately repudiate" something you effectively adopt it, is such political garbage.
And the one time one guy met with a bad guy so you're a racist is essentially a very watered down version of the Jeremiah Wright crap you've played down as absurd on at least one occassion.
Lastly, casino worker make pretty decent money, particularly compared to the new part time work force created by the aca.
I stand by my comments that the "everybody against us is a racist" is slowly starting to backfire for the left. Just like 'Merica slowly backfired for the pubs. Keep it up.
That guy who got pushed down by the secret service deserved more than he actually got. He should have gotten his ass kicked and arrested; I'm not talking about him and you know it.
I normally agree with you when it comes to repudiating things when you're a politician; the klan is one of those things that you should disavow every single time you're asked. If you bitched about Jeremiah Wright or Saul Alinsky you can't have the take that Trump did it once, he doesn't have to do it every other time he's asked.
Comparing Jeremiah Wright with James Edwards is hilarious, nearly as funny as someone trying to pass the KKK endorsing Ben Carson as fact.
I'll take you at your word about casino workers. What about housekeepers, dish washers, and bussers? Better yet, who the eff cares about how many of those people are employed by Trump properties, it isn't like he actually hired them?
