...this guy? http://tinyurl.com/zwyhe3e Is Trump a racist? Well, I guess if you subscribe to contemporary notions of "political correctness" and, with the PC rules overruling any other considerations, yes, he has to be defined as a racist. However, there are other ways to interpret what he said (and says) but one has to look outside of the rules of political correctness to understand or even give consideration to them, something difficult to do with most progressives and certainly in the liberal media. For example, his apparent racism related to referring to the judge as being of Mexican heritage may not be based in racism at all. The Donald's "Trump University" is being sued. The original lead plaintiff in the lawsuit requested and was granted removal from being a plaintiff in the case. In normal court proceedings, that would be end end of the lawsuit. But in this case the judge allowed the suit to continue under conditions and rulings made uniquely by him. Trump has already ****ed off many (or most) Mexicans by insisting that he is going to build a wall for which Mexico will pay for. Trump's comments about the judge could simply be related to the fact that the judge, being of Mexican heritage, may be sympathetic to the those who oppose a wall and, according to Trump, is exercising his sympathy's in a manner that is not germane to the lawsuit. If so, his comments can't be regarded as being "racist". The media has whipped this whole thing up to where no other interpretation can be considered. I fully expect Harry to reply with a four-word post: "Trump is a racist" |

He should have simply attacked the decision on legal grounds or, better, let his lawyer do it. |

Trump is demonstrating daily that he is not a career politician nor a lawyer. Hillary is going to cream him in the general. You can't cure stupid, and you can't buy smarts. |

If they had put the civil rights act up to a national vote it would not have passed in 1964. The question might be, will it pass now? Gary looks better to me every day. He is the one least likely to be indicted by November. |

The question might be, will it pass now? Gary looks better to me every day. He is the one least likely to be indicted by November. And unelected. There is polling right now as reported on Charlie Rose that has Johnson up in the double digits instead of the normal 1% (assuming it is Trumpy and Dumpy) There are a lot of democrats who hate Hillary and plenty of republicans who can't hold their nose tight enough to vote for the Donald. They will either stay home or cast a protest vote. That might be a Bernie write in or a 3d party candidate. I doubt past is prolog this year unless it is 1824. This is a totally unprecedented election. I would say 1968 but the GOP does not have Nixon. Hillary is more disliked than Humphrey. It would be funny is Trump got Wallace numbers. That is the racist vote. (5 1/2 states in the EC) |

I fully expect Harry to reply with a four-word post: "Trump is a racist" Several key leaders in the GOP have already pointed out Trump's racism. Of course they have. It's the politically correct thing to do. The ones that floor me are the ones who state that Trump is clearly a racist however they will continue to support him in the general election. This demonstrates clearly how f*&A%Ked up career politicians are and how bad our political system has degenerated to. |
