Not sure if srs

I honestly don't understand these kind of racists outbursts.

I get that racist people exist. But politicians live and die based on their audience. What kind of reaction do they expect when they say things like that? Applause and cheers?

I lost count of the number of those exclamation marks.

Many Republicans were quick to condemn the rhetoric. C.J. Grover, a spokesman for Yoder, said that the congressman doesnt believe this type of rhetoric is appropriate at all. Its unacceptable. These kind of nasty personal attacks are all too prevalent in politics these days, and it needs to stop.

But we will probably support him anyway because fuck morals

Idiots think Trumpism will work for anyone but Trump.

It's not like a man running for office walked out on a stage and said "we need to throw that indian bitch back to the reservation"; a staffer working for the Republican sent an asshole shitposting message to a Democrat leader on Facebook and she released it.

I mean, this person said a lot of stupid shit so yeah you don't want to support that. But at the same time, lawmaking is a pretty important factor in our lives, too.

The lawmaker isn't even the one who made the statement.

Let's say you have this rare car that you love. And the only person in town who can get it up and running and restored again is some racist asshole. Remember, you really love this car. Getting it up and running is really important to you. But you also hate racists. What do you do? Go without the car? It's a tough decision.

Find someone from out of town, because Im not a hypocrite

Clearly they should just square up in the octagon and settle this.

the toughness depends on your integrity. do you stand by your beliefs or do you make exceptions when you think you can benefit by going against your morals? that's what it comes down to.

we respect people who practice what they preach because it's so common to see people with philosophies/idealology that might as well have been written on an Etch a Sketch.

This is where you have to compromise your values no matter what. You can either:

* Compromise your financials values by paying more to hire somebody from out of town to do it.
* Compromise your hobby values by not getting the car fixed at all.
* Compromise your associative values by paying the racist to do it.

So if all of those things are your values, you face being a hypocrite no matter what you do.

"Samurontai says he loves his car....but won't pay to get it fixed in town?"
"Samurontai says he values smart spending...but paid 5x more for repairs than necessary?"
"Samurontai says he doesn't like racism...but hired a known racist to fix his car?"

Except, no. Not at all

Samurontai says he values smart spending, and doesnt like racism, so he payed slightly more for repairs so he wasnt giving business to a known racist

The black and white argument doesnt make any sense in regards to situations like this. You can always support another red candidate

This just in: Republicans are generally racist and those that aren't are at least perfectly ok with racism in their candidates.

That doesnt sound like a Republican, no siree.

. He's a precinct committeeman. So either way he holds power in government, although it's a small role and from the sounds of it he probably won't be in that role for much longer.

No, you're misunderstanding. The claim wasn't "he's not a lawmaker", it's "he's not the one who made that statement".
