EEOC Law under ethnic slurs section states "send her back" illegal

The mental gymnastics of everyone denying what they know is true is just amazing, isn't it?

Amazing, yes. Shocking? No. Consider the source. These Trump fans would love to scream at every brown person to "go back".
 
That is what the law is meant for. Not political quips.

So politicians are unable to be racially harassed? Is that what you are saying? Why do you think the law would not apply to a comment by a politician?
 
Ah, look at you making excuses for boorish behavior that would never be tolerated in the work place.

How is asking a question about a ludicrous claim as making excuses for anyones behavior.

Again, I ask you to go to the minority women in your workplace...they don't even have to report to you, and tell them to go back to where they came from.

Do it, I dare you..

And what does your new statement have to do with what I asked? Or is this your deflection from your own statement.

You can't claim an elected official who is not under the supervision of a president, does not work for the president, was not hired by the president, can't be removed by the president, doesn't report to the president, to be a co-worker. Thats just ridiculous.

so what are you saying here? The president and senators don't work in the same place? How would you define their work relationship?

Still curious if you were implying that I was a Liberal.
 
And what does your new question have to do with what I asked?

Not a ludicrous claim. All you are doing is moving the goalposts and spinning.

Do you denounce what the president said?

If the president actually came out and admitted he was a racist, would you still support him?

Any reason you are not answering the question?

If you can't divine the answer from my statement, There is nothing I can do to help you any further.

I think you are confused of the definition of co-worker. Co-workers don't have to do any of the things you mentioned. they just have to work together.

I'm saying the law does not apply as presented in the OP.

So the squad works for the government. That is the only connection between them and Trump. So does a dog catcher and a DOT manager. This makes them everyone who works for the government now co-workers?
 
Post pointless.

Yes, yours are. Please stop making them. Nobody is interested in listening to you defend racism just so you can tell yourself you didn't cede any points and thereby *got* Teh Libruls.

I suppose it would depend on how you look at it. In a technical sense you would be correct. I would believe that unless they interact often the defined co-worker would not apply under this law. Not sure there you would have to check with a person who deals with these kinds of laws regularly.

I am not sure what you are confused about as it pertains to President Trump and Sen. Omar. They both work together, that makes them co-workers. Not real sure why that fact makes you upset.
 
Just a moment. Is the President the "employer" of members of Congress?

No, and I don't imagine a McDonalds manager could run afoul of the EEOC by going into a BK and saying something racist to the cashier. But on the other hand, everyone working in federal government is technically an employee of the United States. Agency workers, their leader POTUS, congresspeople, judges and their staff. I would expect EEOC violations to occur as between two employees of the same employer, not necessarily a boss-underling relationship.

But the larger point is that what he said is viewed as racism in situations that are subject to the EEOC, which is further but unnecessary support for the proposition that his tweets were vile and unAmerican racism served up for the ugliest part of his base.

She should try suing him to find out anyway. I wouldn't be surprised if this is a blank slate in terms of jurisprudence.

It would make a point if she did. I don't think it will happen mind you. Politicians continually surprise me with the things they will do or not do. I have seen so many things that just dumbfounded me with reactions to accusations or comments made.
 
It would be an interesting case if it was ever made one.

Our three branches of government are supposed to be seperate and equal. To me one would need to argue that the branches are not seperate in order for the EEOC violation to be applicable.
 
The answer was implied in my question. President Trump made a statement that easily fits the guidelines stated by the EEOC.

Are you ready to say that in any company in the US a boss or co-worker who doesn't like what an immigrant has suggested is perfectly with in his rights to tell them to go back to their country of origin and try it there before saying anything here?

How so? The President didn't tell anyone to leave, as in "get out". The President said go back, fix what is broken, and come back and tell us how you did it.


That's a fact. Yes/No?

Why don't you try reading what he wrote, rather than marching in step with what you have been told you must believe?
 
Many Republican senators and Congress persons (and right wing supporters) in the media have been questioned about whether or not what Trump said was racist and the vast majority of them had stated what Trump said was not, but according to EEOC law to say "send her back" is definitely racist.

Trump is in clear violation of the equal employer opportunity commission laws and could be sued.



END OF ARGUMENT

Trumps not her boss so this is an epic fail of a thread.
 
But the audience were shouting send her back over and over again and the president encouraged it.

That is simply wrong

Moreover it's an unfair thing to say aoc's from New York City by his own logic having called America the American dream is dead and American Carnage he should go back to New York City and fix New York City before he ran for president.

And Omar is a refugee from Somalia no one can expect anyone to go back to Somalia and fix it and only then can you flee persecution and apply for asylum in America that's patently absurd

The President is on record rejecting it.

Should I hold liberal crowds responsible for the despicable BS they scream at rally's?

The President said go back and fix what is broken, and come back and tell everyone how you did it.

That's a fact.

Any other interpretation is just liberal propaganda.

LOL

Post pointless, X's 2.

I did read what he wrote, that's why I think it fits the guidelines I notice you didn't answer my question.

Yes, Trump has a history of backpedaling after saying something crazy and it becomes a PR Flap.

What tells the truth is how Trump bathed in the racist rhetoric when the crowd shouted it.

A good man, a responsible non-racist man, a man like McCain, proved that the right thing to do is to stop it in it's tracks, and explain to the audience that such hateful rhetoric is unacceptable.

Trump did not do that. He NEVER does that. He just backpedals after a flap has occurred. He is SPINELESS and a RACIST. The EVIDENCE IS CLEAR.


Should I hold liberal crowds responsible for the despicable BS they scream at rally's?
well, a president who is moral and just won't inspire such rhetoric, or no where near as often as TRump does, and if it happens...
A responsible president, or a responsible anyone with a pulpit should do that, yes.

The President said go back and fix what is broken, and come back and tell everyone how you did it.

That's a fact
Apparently you unaware of the fact that when someone runs for Congress and gets elected they do it for the purpose of effecting change for the better in one's district.

All Trump is doing is making the world laugh at him, and pit left against right. making the world less safe, gutting the interior dept, gutting the state dept, gutting the EPA, and filling posts with "acting" holders, not reading his daily intel briefs, running the gov by the seat of his pants, and He is making NO effort to unify the country, he is spewing lies ( dems want to kill babies after birth, Obama was born in Kenya, and over 10,000 lies to date).

I could go on, but the truth won't reach you, you'll just quote some jobs numbers, which are nothing but a continuation of the previous years under Obama, etc, and shout "TDS".
Any other interpretation is just liberal propaganda.


Callling truth "propaganda", is propaganda
