Democrats Hold a Terrible Hand of Race Cards

If anything I think Trump's racist comments and the Republicans deafening silence have helped to solidify the majority of Black and Hispanic support behind Democrats. Black women in particular are fast becoming a huge block in the Democrat party and a force to be reckoned with.

What democrats are not doing by twisting Trump's words to make them appear racist, Rep Ayanna Pressley is openly making up for by threatening blacks and browns to support and promote the racist, anti-Semitic, anti-Christian, anti-American democrat narratives or else.

Go for it. Let everyone know you also think any publican not supporting the anti-American, anti-Semitic, anti-Christian racist democrat narrative is a worthless, despicable, "far right rag."

You cannot possibly be that serious? I know conspiracy theorists can go far out there but you take the cake.

If Americans say justice department officials in the Obama department displayed unusual animosity towards republicans they are accused by degenerate democrats of promoting "conspiracy theories." But if democrats spend a gazillion dollars and years of wasted hours chasing Russian ghosts that were figments of democrat imaginations then they are not "conspiracy theorists."

But this IS okay, right?

"I don't want to bring a chair to an old table. This is the time to shake the table. This is the time to redefine that table. Because if you're going to come to this table, all of you who have aspirations of running for office. If you’re not prepared to come to that table and represent that voice, don’t come, because we don't need any more brown faces that don't want to be a brown voice. We don’t need black faces that don't want to be a black voice. We don't need Muslims that don’t want to be a Muslim voice. We don’t need queers that don't want to be a queer voice. If you’re worried about being marginalized and stereotyped, please don't even show up because we need you to represent that voice."

- Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA)

Pots and kettles, I'm thinking.

Did you want Obama to only represent mixed-race people? Do you want Biden to only represent old white men? Do you want Harris to only represent...well, I honestly don't know what she is...but is that who you want her to represent?

Seriously. I don't see any way you can describe that nonsense from Pressley as anything other than divisive identity politics.

Nobody wants anyone to represent only certain races. Strawman argument denied.

No more than falsely accusing the President of racism. There is plenty to go around.

I must admit that level of hatred against Trump rises above anything the right is doing. The whole 2018 campaign was barely concealed never-Trump, to use the party hatred to drive turnout. It worked, once but you have residual resentment to deal with. You wonder why Trump's base is loyal wile you are attacking one of their own.

Whether or not Trump is racist, his very own words are what is obnoxious. Everyone, even you, can plainly see that.
I find it astounding that every time someone criticizes Trump, the right is fueled with hatred and accuse them of hating Trump. I have never seen that level of hatred in the right. Trump's own words are filled with hatred and his supporters follow suit.

Hmm..., So anyone touting a bumper sticker saying " America Love it or Leave It" is now a racist? The slogan possesses an undeniable logic. If you really hate where you are, why not go someplace else? As Arthur Chrenkoff, who left Poland for Australia, puts it: "If you really so passionately dislike just about everything about your country, you have to ask yourself a question – Why Suffer? Why keep putting yourself through this endless unhealthy rage and frustration? There are many different types of societies around the world, some of which are without doubt a lot closer to your vision of what an ideal community should be like. Wouldn’t you be happier living somewhere else? Yet we see that even celebrities who claimed they'd leave America when Trump was elected still reside and remain in America. Guess the same adage of Love or leave it should hold true for those call those racists when they are told,
"It's America, Love it of Leave It."​

“America, love it or leave it”
“America, love it or leave it”
“America, love it or leave it” This was a popular bumper sticker during the late 1960s and early 1970s. It was aimed at discontented left-wing radicals who claimed not just America was wrong to be fighting in Vietnam, but that it was evil for that reason and for many others.

If you hold the race card hopefully you will play it at the right moment.

I'm telling them, "Go ahead, fight him any way you can."

It's not the approach I would use, but, I'm not there.

There's so much intelligent things to say, but no, they all, Trump included, look like led poisoned wrinkled bags.

"Racist" they should grind it in.

The problem with playing the race card, is that the Progressive Marxist Socialist/DSA Leftists play that card too often, so much so that AOC even played it against Pelosi. The Quad Squad has been using the racist card against all and any who has differed with them. They have diluted and basically nullified the effectiveness of the invective.

The 'Honorable' Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley, D-MA., tells us, "If you're worried about being marginalized and stereotyped, please don't even show up because we need you to represent that voice." In short, capitulate to our ideology or make yourself scarce. You don't count. You will not be heard. That condescending, dictating, racist and reeks of denial to Freedom of Speech. Right out of Mao Zedong's Little Red Book.....

That's quite a twisted logic you got there. She's talking about representing your people. Why be a representative if you don't represent your own people?

He said "in my opinion" ___ If expressing an opinion is a false accusation then we better close this forum because everyone here has done so.

What do you mean by "My People" Congresswoman Presley represents the people of one district in Massachusetts. She does not represent me nor my people in her presence or ideology in Congress... The Congressman that represents me in Washington D.C. is Tom Reed (R-NY).

I will concede your first sentence. Your last sentence is way off base. What you see is a mirror.

To use your words, I have never seen that level of hatred. Only, it is not from Trump; it's directed at him. You see a reflection.
