    As has been pointed out to you before I'm sure, that's rich coming from a Trump supporter....

    Thank you for your concession.
    It's not a surprise, of course.

    Of course, his actual words had to be edited to make it racist. It doesn't matter if there is a D or an R by their name; anything against Trump will find an eager audience. Someone will even create a thread about it!

    I presume you know who Keith Ellison is. He used to be the Deputy Chair of the DNC.

    Obviously, you missed the Dem "debate", too...

    :democrat: SOCIALISM & OPEN BORDERS 2020 :democrat:

    You could almost here the champagne bottles popping over at Trump's campaign headquarters...

    Obviously I don't know how to respond to multiple postings in one post. So, Warren doesn't want open borders, she wants immigration handled by Civil courts instead of federal courts. AOC - I'd like to read a source. Booker - I doubt he would escort someone across with MS 13 on his forehead.

    Boom. Open Borders. And Cory helping the illegals gain entry is an example of how all Democrats, except Klobacher, puts honest effort in helping illegals gain entry.

    The civil courts are still federal courts, just not criminal courts, and thus decriminalize the act of entering the US illegally.
    Why would anyone want to decriminalize breaking the law?

    See race? You're racist.
    Don't see race? You're a racist.
    Treat people based on who they are as supposed to the colour of their skin? You're a racist.
    Treat people based on the colour of their skin as supposed to who they are? You're a racist.
    Eat tofu on a Wednesday? You're a racist.
    Don't eat tofu on a Wednesday? You're a racist.
    Exist? You're a racist.
    Don't exist? You're a racist.

    Being called a racist doesn't mean anything anymore. Being labeled a racist today by a Leftist may as well be a badge of honor as it only shows the immaturity and intellectual capacity of the one throwing it around.

    And it shows that the focus of the ones throwing it around is not about ideas anymore, but the people of which it is focused on.

    The Left have stopped caring about ideas and gone full about people, and people only. They are losing on the marketplace of ideas because they don't represent theirs anymore.

    Overall, the Republican Party has DEVOLVED from the party formed to stop slavery in America to the party of white supremacy in America. That's proof that evolution is multi-directional--not always toward higher states of being.

    Any person of color that criticizes a white person is a racist.

    This is essentially an argument between Republicans. The look on Romney's face says it all. I come from a state where Republicans like Romney have governed for much of the past century. Schwarzenegger's likability meant he served 2 terms as governor of a deeply blue state. There have always been differences on policy/ opinion but the funerals of McCain and Bush, Sr included many Democrats mourning. Americans mourn the decency we once had and hold Republicans responsible to take action like they did with Nixon.

    George Will points out that Trump may/ or may not be a racist. But read what this former-Fox News writer said today:

    "I believe that what this president has done to our culture, to our civic discourse ... you cannot unring these bells and you cannot unsay what he has said, and you cannot change that he has now in a very short time made it seem normal for schoolboy taunts and obvious lies to be spun out in a constant stream. I think this will do more lasting damage than Richard Nixon's surreptitious burglaries did."

    Because Trump is loved by the establishment GOP - right?
    It doesn't matter who doesn't understand the definition of "racism" - if words or deeds don't beet the definition, the words or deeds aren't racist.

    I hope you are discrete in public. Can you imagine having to defend Trump today in California?

    From people who choose to not understand the definition of "racism" and mindlessly apply it to anyone they disagree with?
    No need - they defeat themselves.

    Are you saying that white people are perfect & beyond criticism, or that only white people have the right to be critical of other whites without being regarded as racists? And, do white people have the right to criticize non-white people without being regarded as racists?

    I can imagine California not being part of America anymore and it makes me happy.

    Anytime a white person criticizes a person of color, they are labeled a racist.

    It's a two way street.

    2 questions: Do you live in California? Did you mean "Portland"?

    I disagree with you. I think there's every reason to think trump is that dumb. He talks without a moments thought about the repercussions of his statements. It's kind of a sobering thought to know this fricking idiot is making strategic decisions for our country.

    If Californians stayed in California I would not care about them. The fact that it is so unlivable that they are fleeing it into good states and infecting them is the problem. The fact that the multinationals are fleeing is even worse.

    POLAND. I want out. Krakow looks real nice. Imagine a world with no fat people, no political correctness, little diversity and the liberals are scared. A place where a few million dollars set you up like a king (only 15 years to go!).

    Not even slightly, eh? I don't know, if his tweets weren't racist they were certainly, shocker, intellectually lazy. What kind of low brow, knuckle dragging idiot dismisses an argument out of hand because of the country of origin a person? And even funnier (if not sad - this is our potus) the majority of the people he was attacking with this adolescent line of reasoning WERE naturally born Americans. You can't f****** make it up!
    There is no decorum, there is no thought, there is absolutely nothing but empty bluster. This is what the trumpers are defending. It's disgusting.

    What tidy way to completely dismiss criticism. Hell, you could use this lazy, stupid, reasoning to silence any argument you don't like - as long as it isn't made by a white person. But nah, it's not racist.

    Honestly, I think that it's for no other reason than he ran as a Republican. The Clintons didn't have a problem hanging out with him back in the 90's when he was a D. The fact that he doesn't speak well makes him an easy target but I don't think Dems hate him more than they hated either of the Bushes or Reagan. They don't hate him more than they hated all the old people holding signs during the Tea Party protests.
