Sorry, I forgot that ALL Trump supporters are racist.

 

How could I forget with the MSM reminding me every day.

 

Is that all you people have is calling Trump supporters racist? People who support Trump are numb to this by now and people like me who hold no political affliction are tired of the left's racial rhetoric. Even still, this might not be enough to keep the Dems from taking over the house in November. Sadly.

Oh, they're not. They just have no problems with supporting someone who is incredibly racist, and who empowers people who are incredibly racist.

 

I mean, I could also have mentioned women having agency in their own medical choices as something that terrifies Trump supporters, but that is harder to visualize.

Name calling? It's their names. One of the groups in attendance was literally the National Socialist Movement. This is what they call themselves.

 

After that, it's all correlation. I'm just saying: presence of white nationalists, Klansmen and Nazis: 3 dead and multiple injured

College kids committing institutional vandalism (for which they should be punished): zero dead, zero injured

 

Just saying, maybe it's the Nazis who are bad people. Crazy idea, I know.

You know what's crazy? The "nazis" aren't the ones with a hood on covering their face. The "good" guys are!!!

That's so crazy, right?

Document the evidence that the President is a racist.  This is nothing more than an ugly fiat declaration based on nothing more than your desire to disparage someone with whom you have political differences.

By "empowers" I have to assume you mean "aren't willing to violate the rights of"; which is just another way of saying you're the type of person who believes the government should prosecute thought crimes, and finds no value in human freedom. 

 Your argument isn't compelling.

Do you mean "supports the human rights or the most vulnerable people on the planet?"

 

Any position staked out atop a mountain of aborted humans isn't one grounded in morality.  That's pretty easy to visualize.

As you well know, ideology is not a transitive property.  Just because disparate groups support one narrow idea does not somehow comingle and conjoin the rest of their ideas. 

 

Unless you mean to say that because you and I both feel that it's not acceptable to murder you, you and I are ideologically the same, and you can justly be labeled as my ideological brethren.

This is nothing more than a special pleading (logical fallacy) argument seeking to excuse the bad behavior of those who show up to protest white supremacist organizations.  White supremacists, as distasteful as they may be, are perfectly free to espouse their ideas, and should be able to do so without threat of physical violence against them.

 

If the "short skirt" defense is wrong for rapists (and it is), so is your defense of violence against white supremacists.

Please list the examples, with sources, which makes Trump someone who is "incredibly racist." 

Expand  

 

DR, he’s just another moron who calls Trump a racist with ZERO evidence to back it up.

 

It’s very tiresome and debates are OVER once racism comes up.

 

I say if you think Trump supporters (or half the country for that matter), leave the country and go to a country that’s not racist.

 

Facts aren’t these bozos friend.

Actually, pretty sure the answer will be "Muslim ban" and "border wall."  Likely w/ an assortment of other ideas that were tweaked by the media enough to sound a lot different than what they are.  Followed by a flourish of tweets, which in fairness, really do come across poorly quite often.

Here's a pretty comprehensive list through early this year of reason's why Trump is seen as a racist - https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/01/15/opinion/leonhardt-trump-racist.html

The points in that column are certainly a better argument than this :lol:

Blindly speculating (the most dangerous kind) based on the reports of one 30 something male nodding in agreement with the judge this morning as he told the jurors they had to respect the minority view, it would seem probable that the hold out is not a narrative follower. That would lead me to believe he's in Manafort's corner.

I criticized Trump throughout the campaign for giving a wink to the alt right and white nationalists, but I haven't seen clear evidence of him being a racist.  He's an equal opportunity offender.  He just sees people as winners (those that support him and are successful) and losers (those that don't support him).

That's an intellectually dishonest hit piece which seeks to find racism as it's primary goal, and as a result chooses to use a racist lens to view everything, rather than seeking proper context.

 

It's not at all objective, and doesn't try to be.

 

The goal is to convince the reader that the President is a racist, not to identify the truth.

 

But then, you aren't interested in truth, you're interested in division and hatred.

It's all Gary knows and all he brings to the board over multiple years and account names. He's an intellectually dishonest, cowardly troll. Always has been. Always will be.

From the article:

 

  Quote

 In 1989, on NBC, Trump said: “I think sometimes a black may think they don’t have an advantage or this and that. I’ve said on one occasion, even about myself, if I were starting off today, I would love to be a well-educated black, because I really believe they do have an actual advantage.”

So  Joe Biden is a racist for explaining that Obama was "the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a  nice-looking guy."

 

Do you nuts even think through what you're writing, reading and citing?

What Biden said was certainly insensitive and racist. He owned up to it  and apologized for it.

 

Trump hasn't owned up to ****.

Did he own up to it and apologize before or after he said you need to be from India to manage a 7-11.

 

And did he apologize for that, too?

 

So to be clear, you can be a racist as long as you apologize every time you're a racist? Do leftists call that The Biden Rule?
