Trump Train Losing Steam

Warren promoted and benefited from an obvious falsehood. Trump called her on it. That's all he did.

This is very American. We have a saying around here: "Put up or shut up!"

I'm from Northern Minnesota where Native American alcoholism was a very pronounced problem when I was growing up. Was Warren demeaning anyone when she got her a beer? Did Trump make her say this?

This is supremely moving the goalpost, to the point of plain deflection. It is also flat out bullsh*tting: Trump meant it as a racial slur, like he meant all his other racial slurs, and all the major Native American groups called him on it, which means they also found it offensive, irrespective of whatever Warren's claims were or how they felt about hers. The 'why' he did it is no excuse. Whatever you might think of Warren is no excuse, in fact it is a lame attempt at blaming the victim. Whatever censure or rejection she got from the Cherokee Nation is no excuse. The president belittled and demeaned Native Americans in general when he used that slur and that is plain for anyone the first time they heard it.

The only people defending the president are his red hats, who defend all his racist statements, from calling all illegal immigrants (and by extension all Mexicans) 'rapist' to telling African Americans they live in 'hell' to calling developing countries 'sh*th0les'. That is Trump in a nutshell - a deplorable racist - and there is no way to wriggle, writhe and slither away from it.

This is the true TDS - Trump Delusion Syndrome. Believing and accepting anything he says as if he's a demi-god cult leader, then making up pathetic excuses to defend him.

Trump is a racist.
 
The Trump Train has long ago left the rails. Those who are still on board probably deserve to go over the cliff with it.

You can believe me when I say that I do not feel you are a genius.

If I happen to address you as "Genius" in this post or any other, it is loaded with sarcasm and would be intended to demean you specifically and nobody else.

I'm pretty sure that NOBODY who is actually a genius would be insulted in any way if they found out that I called you a genius. They would understand completely that calling you a genius has absolutely NO connection to them.

Are you starting to understand the meaning of and use of sarcasm?

This might help as well.
