Oh brother. Yes. He could say pretty much anything Obama said. Especially when Obama did his apology tour. But let's turn this around, is there anything Trump could say that you wouldn't call offensive?

Or racist?

Their fake morality is disgusting.
 
Re: Trump's "sh**hole" comment it offensive because...

Because he is judging people based on the sociopolitical situation of where they are coming from.

****hole is an accurate description of Alabama too. But do you think we should judge all Alabamans just based on where they come from?

You liberals do that all the time. Trump wants immigrants who will benefit America not refugees from every ****hole on the planet. You may disagree, but that is what he is saying.

Have you ever been to Alabama?

Have you been to Haiti?

ksu_aviator is the first to introduce the "Obama did it first" response into the thread.

No record there, ksu. Your mates normally use the "Obama did it first" response within the first ten posts.

Borrowing this..

Truth sounds like hate to those who hate truth.

Seems like you guys did the same with Bush. #REMEMBERBDS
 
Re: Trump's "sh**hole" comment it offensive because...

Well at Daily Caller it appears brought up a flashback just 2 years ago of Obama stating Libya was a **** show due to tribalism. Libya is a country in Africa. Does that make Obama a racist?


FLASHBACK: Obama Called Libya A '**** Sh | The Daily Caller


"“So we actually executed this plan as well as I could have expected: We got a UN mandate, we built a coalition, it cost us $1 billion—which, when it comes to military operations, is very cheap. We averted large-scale civilian casualties, we prevented what almost surely would have been a prolonged and bloody civil conflict. And despite all that, Libya is a mess. Mess is the president’s diplomatic term; privately, he calls Libya a “**** show,” in part because it’s subsequently become an isis haven — one that he has already targeted with air strikes. It became a **** show, Obama believes, for reasons that had less to do with American incompetence than with the passivity of America’s allies and with the obdurate power of tribalism.""

Now I don't recall one damn Democrat or one damn NeverTrumper on this forum or CNN, and the rest of the MSM EVER make a stink out of Obama making such a statement. NOT ONE!

No, it doesn't.

The truth hurts, if you're offended it's because you're a snowflake.

You should never make someone feel bad for telling you the truth, it creates a disincentive for doing so in the future.

As I walk around in -40 F degree weather and merely knee-deep snow drifts, I'd really like to know how "snowflake" became associated with wimpiness.

Re: Trump's "sh**hole" comment it offensive because...

Seen a couple of different arguments and curious which is most prevalent. Though you might agree with more than one, please choose the one you most agree with. I didn't make it multiple choice because it would be too easy to just click them all.

Poll on the way.

It's completely unprofessional, and beneath the office of the President.

Talking out your ass. Berating Americans in favor of your precious foreigners.

Human beings are human beings. If you don’t like the stereotyping mindset, stop it.

Maybe because they melt with the slightest amount of heat, or piss in some cases.

You should have allowed multiple choice.

I think it's racist, unprofessional, and other (unpresidential - and injurious to the US tradition as a nation of immigrants).
 
Re: Trump's "sh**hole" comment it offensive because...

He wants blonde blue-eyed Scandiwegians, not brown people.

Forgetting the=at he's the descendant of a chain migration.

Which of those two types of people have built better countries?

As someone from a very cold part of the world, I'd recommend finding a better insult. To a lot of us this sounds stupid.

Re: Trump's "sh**hole" comment it offensive because...

I went with "other".

Specifically, I see his use of the term as one that is "vulgar disparaging".

The "disparaging" is the primary component, while the "vulgarity" is a crude intensifier.
 
Re: Trump's "sh**hole" comment it offensive because...

The language was unbecoming of the office. Other than that, he's not the first guy in the oval office to be vulgar or disparage a person, people or nation. He just happens to be the guy who gets the most press when it comes to this kind of thing.

Yeah, what's the deal? He said pretty much the same thing about the White House awhile back.
He's liable to say nearly anything about nearly anywhere, so who cares, right?

Everyone one of those people have done the same. No one ratted them out.
