Trump digs in on racist tweets: ‘Many people agree with me’

Gondwanaland said:
Not even remotely. You nor your lefty brethren, have been able to put together a coherent explanation as to how the tweets are racist. All you guys have done is just declare it over and over and then act as if what you say must be true, without evidence or explanation.

Explaining it is not declaring it. Do you really think Trump didn't know that his tweets would be considered racist? Or is he too dumb to realize that?

The statement is right there. Not my problem if you're too blind to see it.

No wonder I had trouble debating you... jeez... have you heard of Burden of Proof or Evidence? Debating and Proving ones argument require more than mere subjectivity.

So that's another who cannot manage to actually explain how the tweets are racist. Gotcha.

I cannot explain to you context. This is something that your teachers had to explain to you. What I told you was that Trump even the second day after the criticism he received for his tweet against the 4 representatives, continued to talk about these representatives and even used their names, explicitly!

Now, feel free to be the only one who plays the dummy...

Holy cow... you seriously suck at debating. Do you mean this quote:

""So interesting to see 'Progressive' Democrat Congresswomen, who originally came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe, the worst, most corrupt and inept anywhere in the world (if they even have a functioning government at all), now loudly and viciously telling the people of the United States, the greatest and most powerful Nation on earth, how our government is to be run," the president wrote."

I have not done a nuh nuh because as the quote above shows I don't even know what ****ing Trump quote you are referring to. :lol:

Yep. So who are those Congresswomen Trump were referring to?

Not my problem if you cannot show me how I am wrong.

I assume that he is talking about Omar and merely said CongressWOMEN instead of CongressWOMAN by mistake.

Am I correct that he is referring to Omar because he does not state whom he is talking about.
 
Here's just a few of the 'many' that agree with Trump.

In my opinion, I believe he was referring to all of them because of the color of their skin or their religion.

That statement

"So interesting to see “Progressive” Democrat Congresswomen, who originally came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe, the worst, most corrupt and inept anywhere in the world (if they even have a functioning government at all), now loudly and viciously telling the people of the United States, the greatest and most powerful Nation on earth, how our government is to be run. Why don’t they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came."

This should be a moment of truth for anyone who describes Trump as a “populist” or asserts that his support is based on “economic anxiety.” He’s not a populist, he’s a white supremacist. His support rests not on economic anxiety, but on racism and he believes saying what he said would energize his base. If you don’t think it’s racist, Trump never said anything like that about someone who is the most critical -- Bernie Sanders. But Sanders is white and doesn’t speak with a “foreign” accent (Brooklyn does not count.)

But this is what has happened to the Republican Party, of which few leaders have condemned these Trump remarks and now no longer hides their racism with dog whistles. Last week Bill Lee, the Republican governor of Tennessee, signed a proclamation ordering a day to honor the Confederate general Nathan Bedford Forrest, whom he described as a “recognized military figure.” Indeed, Forrest was a talented military commander. He was also a traitor, a war criminal who massacred African-American prisoners, and a terrorist who helped found the Ku Klux Klan. The proclamation, like Trump’s Tweet, was deliberate racism, banking on there being enough racists in the general population. We hope their calculus is wrong and America boots them both out of office.

Nope!

He consistently uses plural "countries" instead of "country" "goverments" instead of "government," etc.

"So interesting to see “Progressive” Democrat Congresswomen, who originally came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe, the worst, most corrupt and inept anywhere in the world (if they even have a functioning government at all), now loudly and viciously telling the people of the United States, the greatest and most powerful Nation on earth, how our government is to be run.

It is called reading comprehension and some Trump supporters go so out of their way to support him that they do not have a problem to publicly humiliate themselves with comments which make them look illiterate.

I guess but I what I meant was that he made a plural statement instead of a singular because I think that only Omar is the foreigner.

That said, what in the quote that I provided... is racist?

Or perhaps all it was is that they were not born here or have recent ancestry from crappy countries?

OK. So what. How does making it plural instead of singular make his statement racist?

Ok... he thinks that they are all from a different country... how is what Trump said, racist?

Read post #90. He meant those 4 Congresswomen. Here is Trump's latest tweet that should quell your doubt.

Trump has proven time and again that he knows squat about government and even less about history of any kind. Trump thinks his father immigrated to the US. His father didn't. His grandfather immigrated here from Germany. The town where Trump's grandfather was from was very poor and could have used the Trump family's financial help. The Trump family could have returned and helped the town rise out of **** hole status. That never happened.

Trump's grandfather was drafted to serve in the German army as all young men were at the time. His country needed him but Trump's grandfather left Germany and denied service to his country. Fred Trump never served his country and we all know about Cadet Bone spurs. Ironic, innit?

What about it?

If you use xenophobia (as you seem to agree) when you address American citizens instead of foreigners, including citizens who were even born and raised in the US , you basically say that these citizens are not "real" Americans. And the reason they are not real Americans is because of their ethnic origin. Feel free to argue that this is not about race if you find a case of politicians telling their white critics to go back to where they came from.
