overt racism

"Overt racism" now means not wanting a country-based immigration system. Gotcha.

I can understand why people think Trump is a hard racist.

But he's always struck me as someone who just sucks at injecting any form of nuance into his speech and interpreting statistics related to social phenomena.

The racism stuff is moot. It's a fact that Trump is a bigot with an extreme hatred toward Muslims in general. His retweets of three anti-Muslim videos are still the worse things he's ever done. I'm baffled why this recent shithole scandal that has conflicting sources is receiving more outrage than those retweets that were forgotten by the media in two days.

Honestly the worst thing about Trump is that he's exceedingly deceitful.

If the worst things he's ever done is retweeting videos, then he's a better person than I thought.

As far as bigotry in office is concerned.

If I recall, 2 of the 3 videos were quite real. Crimes recorded on video. Unfortunately one was a hoax made to look very real.

Nothing wrong with sharing videos that document reality (within reason). There's a difference between that and for example a hateful diatribe demonizing an entire group... which is what is brought to mind when you say "anti-Muslim videos".

Not at all.
But Trump is not just the president of white Americans but the president of ALL Americans.
Its highly insensitive and downright hateful of him to insult near every ethnic minority group while labelling those who literally represent inequality, hatred and death to those ethnic minority groups, as fine people.

So what? I'm not hurting anyone.

Man, you guys sure like to talk about racism. I'd be exhausted if all I did was focus on negative shit like that.

I'm a minority though, can't be racist if I don't possess power.

In Canada, our PM is the opposite. He 'promotes' fake violent attacks (on Muslims), but when they are proven fake, he is oddly quiet about it.

AGREE WITH ME OR YOU'RE A RACIST!

Sorry TC but I'm black....and thanks to your libby hippy friends I can't be racist :)

Trump isn't a racist. In 1983, he sold a million dollar New York apartment to a Haitian dictator.

Nobody is disputing the presence of non-racists amongst the counter protestors.

So then you agree that there were good people on both sides.

Good. Discussion over.

Nope, cause one side was comprised of neo-nazis, which by definition aren't good people. So yeah you're right, discussion over.

False. If a bird shits on a pie, is the pie made of shit or is it still technically a 97% good pie that has some shit on it.

Dealing in absolutes is for Siths and liberals.

The fact that u have to constantly bitch he is racist....proves hes not racist

Take it up with the millions of black people that voted Trump---enough black Trump voters to fill the entire population of USA's fourth largest city. Then take it up with all the latinos/latinas that voted for Trump. Then take it up with all the mixed race folks who voted Trump.

Take a moment and realize Trump would have lost without people of color's vote. Without Michigan changing red. Without Pennsylvania changing red. Without Wisconsin changing red. People done had enough, ya dig?!
---

And now many are getting what they voted for. Major tax cuts. Some of these disenfranchised/poor families with multiple kids will be saving literally thousands more under Trump. More than any Dem would have ever given them.

Trump has kept his promises and he is not racist.

There is simply no way a clearly thinking person who has memory of the things Trump has said prior to his election and even after his election, is unable to see that the man has racist views and is quite possibly a racist.

KINDERFELD posted...

He said Obama was probably not born in America but in Kenya.
He refused to rent to those on welfare who just happens to be majority blacks and other ethnic minorities.
He has been accused by many of his employees, prior to even announcing his interest in the presidential election, of racist comments.
He referred to Mexican immigrants as criminals and rapists.
He accused a federal judge of being unable to be impartial because of his Mexican heritage.
As president, he advocated for less immigration for Haiti.
Back in 1989, he placed ads in the New York Times pushing for the death penalty for black and latino teenagers accused of raping a white woman in Central Park. In 2016, more than 10 years later and after DNA evidence exonerated them, he still argued that they were guilty.
He called African countries and Haiti, shitholes and said Africans would not want to go back to their huts after seeing America. After those comments, he asked why American couldn't get more immigrants from Norway, an almost 90% all white country.
In 2017, when the KKK and Nazi were protesting, Trump referred to some of them in those groups as "fine people".

Wow, it's a greatest hits list of every debunked, misleading, or outright nonsensical accusation!
---

I do think he's racist, but not renting to people on welfare is perfectly fine. I wouldn't. If most of those people are black, oh well. There's no inherent malice unless he didn't rent to non-welfare black people.
---

Damn are y'all ok?! Could see the smoke from the topic list!

I agree with Mai Fet

Trump isn't a bad racist

Trump is racist, not the unabashed Bull Connor in your face n-word flying out in public racist but his actions over the years are telling.

The anti-statue side had exclusively good people.

The pro-statue side had at least 2 good people plus a ton of racists, Nazis, etc.

Therefore, good people were on both sides.

This statement is correct.

I don't get what people are still arguing about. If you disagree with a liberal, you're a racist. Why can't everyone just deal with the fact that they have to accept any label a liberal throws at them regardless of how irrational and unproven it is? If you disagree with anyone on the left, you're racist and if you object, well then, you're DOUBLE racist.

You should find a ton of examples of liberals calling people racists for disagreeing on premises in which race is not involved and plays no part whatsoever. That would really drive the point home.

Not just that, but who REALLY thinks Donald Trump was looking at rental applications and choosing who rents there?

I don't think he's really a racist. I think he's a shameless opportunist who's willing to use other people's racism to his advantage

So cute.
"He's not a racist, he's just a silly old white man who grew up in a different time. Just ignore him."

This is what racists want to you think and how they want you to act, but he's the president, enacting and ending laws based on his racist mindset.
