So is Trump's overt racism a draw for you if you support him? - Politics Discussion

[–] elcamino (15540) 5 years ago

Its not any more racism as why Beto goes by Beto living in El Paso. He still won't get a job as dog catcher now. I'll vote Trump because I'm minority and poor and don't want to be forced on a mass transit bus because some over priveledge white person thinks it will saves from pollution.I'll keeping my old pickup and voting Donald.

I had to read this at least five times, before I realized this is what was actually said.

A man named Beto living in El Paso is the same 'racist behavior' as a President telling four minority congresswomen to 'go back to the country where you came from' ?

I am reading that correctly, right ? A member of this forum actually posted this and said the two are the same, correct? Purposely - not mistakenly - posted this, correct ?

Im going to go with, they dont think he is racist in any way shape or form. And judging by the posts, that will be the truth. If they cant see their own bigotry, I dont see them seeing it in others.

Do you think his recent "go back where you came from" remarks are racist? Because they aren't, by any definition of the word.

reply

[–] BigWorm (683) 5 years ago

"go back to where you came from" is a text book go to for bigots. It has been for generations. Being purposefully obtuse, isnt a solid strategy here. You might want to try a different tack.

reply

[–] Burk48917 (11433) 5 years ago

It isn't textbook at all, particularly in this instance. In fact, it's a reach to see it as racist.You saying it is means nothing. It's a declaration stating; if you aren't satisfied and all you do is complain,feel free to leave. Hell, if someone came into a restaurant and did nothing but bitch about how terrible it was, most people would think it perfectly normal for the owner to suggest they find somewhere else to dine. I realize that scenario might force you to try to view this objectively,but it's pretty obviously a fair comparison.

reply

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

I have to agree with BigWorm, I've never heard anyone say it to anyone where it wasn't a direct racial slur.

"Go back to where you came from..." and it's usually accompanied by a derogatory term for the person's ethnicity.

Surely we're not telling you anything you don't already know.

reply

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

Also, considering the fact that the women he was referring to were all but one American-born, where was he suggesting they go? He said it because they are women of colour and the inference is that they should go back to another country, despite them being American. Therefore he was suggesting because they are of non-white backgrounds they are less than white Americans and should be sent away from their country of birth.

Not racist? Not much!!

reply

[–] BigWorm (683) 5 years ago

😂 actually, it’s more like being sat at the dinner table in your own home and being told to fuck off because you don’t like the shit sandwich that’s been placed in front of you.

See, if he said “if you don’t like it, you’re free to leave.” You’d have a point. But he didn’t say that. He said “go back to where you came from”. All but one was born in the us. And that one had been in the us since she was a child. So, your explanation is, ironically, a reach. And it’s so reachy I’m wondering if you aren’t a member of the fantastic 4.

I’ve seen people die on som weird hills, but damn dud. That has to be the stupidest.

reply

[–] Burk48917 (11433) 5 years ago

Try and use your big boy brain and read his words. His statement is xenophobic at best, but it still isn't racist. And, he specifically mentioned that poor condition of their origin, even if that is ancestral, it was never a mention of race,and his point is very valid. My analogy holds strong, despite your inability to comprehend it.

reply

[–] BigWorm (683) 5 years ago

I didn’t say racist, you said racist. I said bigoted. Your analogy is pish, I understand it just fine. Apparently you don’t, as it is, as I said, pish.

reply

[–] Burk48917 (11433) 5 years ago

You do realize, that with your strong and self certain position, you are a bigot? In fact, most people are, including the people constantly attacking the President. And least they don't try and sidestep calling him racist like you just did. (You did reply to my question about racism, so it isn't a far reach)
Words have meanings bro.

big·ot
/ˈbiɡət/

a person who is intolerant toward those holding different opinions.

reply

[–] BigWorm (683) 5 years ago

Aww, look you at you trying to be clever. It’s just so precious.

Definition of bigot
: a person who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices
especially : one who regards or treats the members of a group (such as a racial or ethnic group) with hatred and intolerance

So, you go ahead and try to spin it if you like, but once again. Weird hill to die on.

Considering 3 out of the 4 we're born in America it's hard for me to see that comment as anything but racist.

reply

[–] Burk48917 (11433) 5 years ago

Again, it may be xenophobic, but it's not remotely racist. Words have meanings, but the left overuses "racist" because it invokes a more provocative reaction than xenophobe.

reply

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

The two terms aren't mutually exclusive and often go hand in hand so I would disagree that it's not racist, let alone remotely racist. But even if he were simply xenophobic, that's not exactly an admirable quality for a President to have.

reply

[–] Burk48917 (11433) 5 years ago

I've never defended Trump's eloquence, or even his general persona. I think he was simply trying to say,if you don't like it leave, but did so in a poor way. I actually have no problem that he isn't conventionally Presidential. They have all, on both sides, been liars and war mongers for the last 3 decades. Everything Trump says is his unfiltered truth, and it wouldn't surprise me if he had a little instilled racism in him, but this wasn't a product of that. His issues are related more to his generation and how they almost all viewed minorities, but again, none of the things reported as racism actually are. I'll take real Trump with all of his flaws over a well polished liar that hurts huge segments of the population by using identity politics as a political pawn, like the Democrats do.

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

They voted for him because of his overt bigotry. What he did this weekend just confirms his base voted for the right candidate.

reply

[–] Sandoz (2021) 5 years ago

Trump does succeed at keeping his base happy. Ultimately, I think that's a good thing because as long as he panders to and tries to impress these miscreants, he alienates just about every other voter in the country with his meanness, stupidity, arrogance, and foolishness. His base isn't going to be enough by themselves to win (steal) another election for him.

reply

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

Now if he comes out and says he’s having sex with Ivanka, his base will win Bingo. Incest is high on the list of importance for them.

He'd have a sure-fire campaign slogan for 2020 then...All In The Family!

He would indeed. LOL! That's the only thing missing from his campaign so far. His base seems to be largely made up of inbred people, so he will definitely win them over....and their kin.

Interesting that you find the truth 'irrational;, but it does indeed explain your lack of reasoning and logic here.

BTW, hate is at the root of bigotry, misogyny, and racism - so ask T-rump, any of his followers and the Rethuglikkkan party if it sucks to be hate-filled. They will give you an honest answer from their experience.

Actually, you & your Dem/Lib ilk are the true racists since you're constantly accusing innocent people of racism and stirring up racial tension.

Trump was never slandered as a "racist" until he entered politics and ran against the Dems. That's a fact.

reply

[–] Sandoz (2021) 5 years ago

Trump was never overt about his racism before he entered politics because he had nothing to gain from expressing it. Once he recognized (after watching Fuckhead News for the last 15 years) that there was a market in hate to corner among the alt-right loonies he took the ball and ran with it.

reply

[–] Wuchak (8832) 5 years ago

Little people and Dems/Libs love to slander innocent people. It's their go-to strategy, as displayed in your juvenile post.

Again, Trump's not a racist in the least; he has sizable & increasing support from people of color. He was only slandered as a "racist" when he decided to run against Hillary & the Dems (rolling my eyes).

reply

[–] chilone (18043) 5 years ago

Do some research. Fox News was rated independently as being 51% critical of Trump and 48% in support. CNN, MSNBC, etc., are 80- 90% critical of Trump.

NO!!! If anyone says anything good about Trump, they're liars, racists (even non-whites), flat earthers, climate deniers, science deniers, homophobes (even the gay ones), xenophobes, illiterate, inbred, bible thumping rednecks, etc., etc., etc.

Trump is not perfect and neither is anyone else but if by some miracle, he was made perfect, the left would still be all: the cheeto! t-rump! orannnnnnnnnnge!!!! I need a safe space!!! Weeee haaaaaate heeeeeeeem!!!
