Are You OK With A Racist President, Republicans?

[Fruityfact]

Good thing Trump isn't a racist, right?

A birther claiming that the birther in chief isn't racist. I'm shocked

And yet, you are unable to defend Obama. I'm not shocked.

Back to NYC?

He's got a lot of white enemies. Which ones has he told to go back where they came from? None is the answer. And telling minorities, non-whites, to go back to Mexico/Africa/Middle East/India is an old, obvious, racist/bigoted trope. It's sending a very old and honored American tradition of white nationalism.

You interpret it one way because of your bias against Trump.
I see it as politics as usual.
Tomorrow will be another day when some politician says something stupid and the other side will go ape s*** accusing them of racism or sexism or some other type of ism.
Were you just as concerned with Omar ‘s anti-Semitic remarks a few months ago.
I didn’t see a thread that read are you OK with an anti-Semitic congresswoman.

It's not just me. See my comment above this one with several examples.

Here are some more: Republican Congressman:

US Rep. Mike Turner on Twitter: "I am confident that every Member of Congress is a committed American. @realDonaldTrump’s tweets from this weekend were racist and he should apologize. We must work as a country to rise above hate, not enable it."

Joe Walsh on Twitter: "24 hours later, think about it: He told four American citizens, three of whom who were born here, all four elected to Congress, he told them to “go back to where they came from.”

Yea, it’s disgusting, anti-American, and racist. But it doesn’t even make sense. They’re from here!"

Joe Walsh on Twitter: "To say “go back to where you came from” is gross. It’s offensive, ignorant, anti-American, and racist.

Trump’s base will applaud, his media sycophants will talk about Hillary or the deep state instead, and Congressional Republicans will hide under their desks. Despicable."

[Sheepdog]

Trump isnt racist. He is supposedly racist yet he hasnt stopped immigration, hasnt got the wall built, make being black the best its ever been in the history of the world, put blacks in leadership roles, etc.

The Democrats are just mad that he is immune to the racism claims and it doing what is BEST for this country. Wish he was doing more "racist" things like getting sane immigration policy done (which would be stopping all immigration, period, got enough people dont need more) and getting that wall built high and strong. Everyone with an IQ higher than single digits (so this disqualifies all democrats) know these things are not racist, but smart and for the best interests of keeping this country as intended.

 

[JMR]

Exactly how does that prove racism? I realize that throwing the race card is SOP among many on the left.

As I said, feigning ignorance is barely a step up

It's not just me. See my comment above this one with several examples.

Weak Republicans trying to get the main stream media to like them for some paid TV spots. Seen it a million times.

 

[Sheepdog]

The Dems are so full ****, they need a movement. They should rename their party to the Whiny Bitchy Little Girls Party, they are so annoying.

No kidding. Democrats are aggressively annoying people.

 

[JMR]

Based on your comment I now know why the term “racist” is overused.
I have to say 90% of the country are racist, both democrats and republicans.

Just the other day I told me wife I hated rap music. I guess I’m racist.
I’m not in favor of open borders. I guess I’m racist. If a white Canadian sneaks across the border I guess I would be racist against white Canadians.

Telling people of color to go back to where they came from is obviously different that having preferences to music. Nice try, and sad to see such drivel liked by a poster who claims to be erudite.

so you think you are improving?

Are you entertaining yourself again?

Any person denying that "go back to where you came from" is not a racial statement is either feigning ignorance, or ignorant. You can choose your own label.

 

[iguanaman]

I'm not okay with a racist President at all.

Good thing Trump isn't a racist, right?

Of course, being a racist was one of Obama's failings. That's one of the reasons I didn't like the guy.

Pulling the old Karl Rove trick of taking your worst attribute and accusing you opposition of it I see. It's lame and always has been. Apparently it works on the weak minded I guess.

your declarations are nothing more than opinions, I find your opinions to be based on much bias and very little logic. So therefore I reject your opinions and laugh at them as benighted.

Its not a racist statement. His statement was directed at an immigrant, a recent immigrant, and someone who holds more allegiance towards foreigners than to the United States where she holds political office somehow. We dont have to deport AOC she can come to my bedroom.

Your own Sen. Portman took him to task, along with Senators Scott, Romneycare, Ernst, and Toomey. How does this help your down-ballot candidates? Big leadership meeting with him tomorrow.

Talk about an unforced error, or was it? He really thinks this will get him re-elected. Trump being a racist is the least of my concerns with him. He’s Never once spoken like a Statesman, like you would for instance.

Who do you think can beat him of the current collection running for the nomination. I have never denied that Trump says some stupid things.

 

[Noodlegawd]

Just wonderin'.

If Trump had said "go back to where you came from" to a white English immigrant who was complaining about our gun laws, would you call that "racist" too?

Not every totally d-bag comment is "racist."

 

[Linc]

As you say he was stupid, I consider that far more egregious for a President to be than the ‘racist’ word being thrown around. It’s too late for any more #45 talk for me.

I strongly support Gov. Bullock. Filing deadline for the Montana Senate race against Sen. Daines is the Monday after Super Tuesday, so I hope he sticks it out until then.

If Biden falters, Bullock may get his support. So might Ryan from your state. I expect a brokered convention in Milwaukee, maybe like Chicago 1968 — 2.0. :mrgreen: Later

"People of color" is a racist term.

It is a dog whistle from the left, intended to divide, and to maintain the distinction between races.

The Democratic party leadership are the biggest Hypocrites on the planet. They're the ones coming up with this stupid stuff, and then their minions become a big echo chamber for the stupidity.

Owange man waycist.

Yeah right.

The only racists in town are sitting on the left side of the Congressional aisle.

One has to chuckle at this kind of stupidity.

Hey - pal - listen up.

Anyone - ANYONE - who doesn't like this country can GTF out.

It doesn't matter if they're black, white, purple, or Little Green Men from Mars.

If they're here to turn my country into a socialist sh*thole, they can leave. Because no one who loves this country would want to turn it into a socialist sh*thole.

These four chicks, every word out of their mouth is hatred. They have no love for this country, no love for its people, its processes, or it's politics. As far as I'm concerned they can leave, and don't let the door hit your sorry butt on the way out.

Man, if you don't like it here, GET OUT. But don't chew up my information bandwidth complaining about what a miserable time you're having, cuz if it's that bad why are you still here? LEAVE!!! Get out. No one needs you to "fundamentally transform" this country. We've all seen how your transformations work in the past, and we don't want any part of it.

How come none of these lying liberals keep their word, and leave the country? Rosie O'Donnell was supposed to leave, Cher was supposed to leave, Madonna was supposed to leave, they're all big fat Liars. They're all still here complaining. What a bunch of losers. lol

 

[gulfman]

All we heard when the sex pervert Clinton was President was "so what ,the economy is so good".The same applies to Trump.Slur away Donald.We are proud of you.

So if someone exercises freedom of speech in America and you disagree with it, they can get out of the country?

 

[HenryChinaski]

How is that racist??
Is it racist simply because it came out of Trump’s mouth?
I’m sure there have been many a Democrat and probably Republicans that told Trump to go back where he came from.

I grew up in the punk scene where white power skinheads were around. “Go back to where you came from!” was the most common slur that they would use when they harassed and assaulted non-whites on the street.

 

[Rickeroo]

Just wonderin'.

I think Trump is the only Republican in history to throw "race" back in the face of leftists. It's truly a wonder to behold. For the first time I'm proud of my country.

Meanwhile, I told my white daughter she couldn't be on 'the squad'.

"What makes me different than them, daddy? Why can't I join them?"

I don't know daughter - you would have to ask them about their policy of diversity and inclusion.

"But aren't we all Americans, daddy?"

Trump 2020.

Everyone takes the consequences for their speech. If you yell fire in a crowded theater, you'll get arrested. If you sling hateful racist rhetoric on the floor of Congress, you'll be called out for it. And if you do it repeatedly, eventually people will figure out you really don't like this country very much, and in that case many of them will ask you to leave. That's freedom of speech too, you're free to ask anyone to leave this country.
