What is Jeff Sessions getting at here, exactly?
https://twitter.com/misstessowen/status/963083927152971776

Also Jeff Sessions: he said slavery, not states' rights was the cause of the Civil War, which is a view I am genuinely stunned to see him hold

The sheriff position within law and order is something unique to the Anglo American heritage of law enforcement, unlike African or Euro centric heritage of law enforcement - they have different titles for their sheriff like positions. Thats all he means

Ok and? How is that related to what he said here, please describe to me how this quote can be construed racist by itself. He might be a racist, doesnt mean everything coming out of his mouth has to be racist or with racist intentions, this might just be case of you seeing what you want to see based on your prior judgments

It's a really fucking nonsense thing to say but it's not necessarily racist, and considering his apparent thoughts on slavery, I'd be willing to bet he's not a terribly racist dude as far as republicans go

Why are we focusing on the trees instead of the forest? I mean, it's a pretty ubiquitous tree, but the forest that it's taking root in shouldn't be ignored just because it's convenient to do so.

That is not what the criticism was in that case. It was him going out of his way to insure that he got more then everyone else. Not that he just got two scoops .

True or not, lets not pretend Dems focusing on trees isnt their biggest hobby. Half the topics on Trump on here is over something totally innocuous he said or did. This topic is an example in that vein, theres nothing egregious about what Pence said here but shillfar has to make a topic about it
