Are You OK With A Racist President, Republicans?

He didn't say that. He said "go back to where you came from" to U.S. citizens born in the U.S.A. who are not white.

But it's a good point - if Trump didn't say what he did say, but something totally different in different circumstances to different people, we just might have a different opinion on this different thing he DID NOT SAY.

So "go back to where you came from" is only racist if the target is not white, even if the content of the discussion has nothing to do with race? Got it.
 
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.

You are conflating things I wouldn't call you a racist for any of those things but if you told 4 women of color and who are a minority race has to go back to the country they came from you may not be a racist but that's how racist people talk so if you don't want to be called a racist you would need to stop talking like one. And by you I mean anyone who is so inclined
 
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.

Name one.

The OP explains why it's racist
 
Exactly how does that prove racism? I realize that throwing the race card is SOP among many on the left.

The OP explains why Trump is racist. If you talk like a racist eventually you are one.
Making a racist comment does not qualify you as a racist per se it's only if you do it a lot and Trump has done it a lot.
 
...then most Evangelical and Fundamental Christians will throw their full support behind you, and elect you POTUS.

I'm actually thinking of running in 2024 but I don't know how I feel about running against Ivanka.

Trump say's what you people are thinking. What's the difference?

What actions has he taken that demonstrate a hostility to blacks?
 
Do you know how ridiculous Democrats who scream "racist!" all the time look to people?

They look ridiculous but I thank them for getting Trump elected.
 
That you don't know what the word "patriotism" means? You're welcome.

I hoped you looked it up in a dictionary. Did you?



Yeah, because being stuck in the cab of your truck, on the road, listening to Alex Jones, that's how you meet people, and get to know what they think. :lamo

Keep proving me right. I don't mind. :lamo
 
Yet another post alleging Trump is a racist. Wow that is original.

Give me a reliable link confirming your allegation.

Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) | Twitter

Only the intellectually dishonest will ignore the blatant rallying calls to white supremacist language.

And only an intellectually-deft person would willingly align themselves with this guy in the long run. Someone has a sword to fall on.
 
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.

True. The people who elected a president with no other qualifications other than he was black, and who's wife said that was the first time in her life she was proud of her country, now claims the new guy is racist.
 
Trump says a lot of stupid things, but I dont think he is a racist.

On the other hand, if I had to choose between the POTUS who says stupid things, or one that seeks to nationalize healthcare, pledge guaranteed income, seeks to pay reparations for blacks, free college, and pour untold amounts of cash into the climate change scam, I think I'll take the guy who says stupid things any day.
 
Obama hated white people or at minimum preferred black people. Key & Peele do a skit on this. They noticed. I didn't hate Obama because he was racist. I hated Obama because he was a horrible President and created the divide this country is currently experiencing. If someone say's something "racist" but it's true is that a bad thing? It's just calling something as it is. This is why Trump is so beloved. He is not fake. He doesn't sugarcoat things. I don't care if my President is "racist" as long as he is a good President. I don't even know what the word "racist" means anymore it's been so overused and watered down. Thank goodness I was born of privilege so I have never experienced the bitterness and hate you people have.

Racist swill.

Trump is no more "racist" than Obama, Clinton, Bush etc. The difference is that Trump is way more transparent and real. Apparently those on the left would prefer to be lied to so they can continue to live in their fantasy no racism world.
 
"Elitism is not just for the rich and powerful. Elitism is everywhere. The cry of the 'Nouveau-elite' is: You can't be racist but I can be racist. You can't be sexist but I can be sexist. You can't be fascist but I can act like a fascist and fascism only happens on the right." 01/09/19

Fascism is a far right ideology. I know you hate academics because you are supposedly smarter than those who actually study things but dems the facts.
 
So "go back to where you came from" is only racist if the target is not white, even if the content of the discussion has nothing to do with race? Got it.

Go back to your country is meant for nonwhite people. Stop with the obfuscation and you might get ridiculed less.

:lamo. Who was trying to block who at every single turn during Obama’s presidency?

He wants to secure our border.
He puts Americans first as if he works for us.
He wants to enforce our laws.
Shall I go on.

when far lefties and TDS sufferers ridicule a poster, that usually means their point has merit
