You have to admit it’s ironic to talk of “jackasses on the left” while simultaneously supporting the biggest jackass ever elected POTUS.

It’s also not true that Trump supporters don’t play the white victimhood card. Polls say otherwise.

Yes, one of the examples given in the thread was a settlement in (IIRC) 1972. That was 46 years ago, and Trump would have been 26 years old. Supposing for the sake of argument that Trump had adopted his dad's racist approach. Is he not allowed to mature and change his mind over the course of 46 years?

Democrats cut Robert Byrd slack when he claimed to have changed after being a KKK recruiter as a young man. But know such thing for Trump. And the case against Byrd is WAY stronger than that against Trump.

But you still don't answer the question. Here, I'll give you a third chance:
http://www.city-data.com/forum/53743296-post96.html

If Trump's support from white nationalists is indicative of Trump's racism, as you argued, is Obama's support from anti-Semites indicative of Obama's anti-Semitism?

Correct. It's a scam. One that lots of people have fallen for.

Everyone knows what it is with Trump so why dance around the obvious?

This feels like a ploy for someone with similar mindset as Trump to get their rocks off by revisiting his venom vicariously through the targets of his rhetoric. Kind of like killers who keep trophies from their victims like a drivers license of a pair of draws. Sorry, not going to bite.

You weren't posting to me, but just so you know, we don't need no FBI report. Archived news tells it all. btw: i'm old and remember the donald from back when ...

btw too: these were not available before the donald was elected, well at least to me they weren't, as I checked and couldn't find one archive; now there's dozens. I wanted them so as to post to my fb account when he was running for office, because I couldn't believe my family and friends were swooning all over this guy. But as it is I deleted my fb account before he took office and have felt better ever since.

Major Landlord Accused Of Antiblack Bias in City
"The Department of Justice, charging discrimination against blacks in apartment rentals, brought suit in Federal Court in Brooklyn yesterday against the Trump Management Corporation, a major owner and manager of real estate here."


I've got like 3 more archived articles like that one pulled up, but I'm just going to post my fav w/fav quote.


NEW YORK; DOER AND SLUMLORD BOTH
"A recent profile in The Washington Post quoted him as saying he was ready to take on new, world-sized tasks - referring to his heretofore unrevealed wish to become the nation's negotiator on arms limitation with the Soviet Union. He says he's a master negotiator, and could do a better job on arms talks than ''the kind of representatives that I have seen in the past.'' Becoming an expert on nuclear weaponry would be easy, he said. ''It would take an hour and a half to learn everything there is to learn about missiles,'' he explained. ''I think I know most of it anyway."


Now doesn't that make every one feel just warm and fuzzy all over, knowing the Trump is in charge of our security and defense. I feel safer already. If it wasn't for Trump's over sized ego he might be an alright dude. But as it is ...

but you could check with mariam goderich who wrote the bio blurb and admits the error was on her part ( the same brochure also got wrong the year that tip o'neil became speaker of the house in his bio blurb ).
Riiiiiight. An error that was allowed year after year after year after year after year after year........

Didn't Obama read the publication......ever?

He said that Obama was not born in the US but was born in Kenya.
He took out a full page ad in New York Newspapers in 1989 urging the death penalty for 5 black teenagers accused of raping a white women. They were exonerated.

He said he didn't trust black people to count his money.
"I've got black accountants at Trump castle and at Trump plaza. Black guys counting my money. I hate it. The only kind of people I want counting my money are short guys that wear yarmulkes every day. Those are the kind of people I want counting my money, no one else."
Talking about a black guy, he said "I think that guy is lazy. And it's probably not his fault, because laziness is a trait in blacks. It really is, I believe that."
Where's the proof?
Muslim isn't a race. It's a religion.
Mexican heritage isn't a race. Latino or Hispanic is.
Where's the proof?
Questioning a birth nation of another person has nothing to do with race.
Getting emotional about a crime isn't racist.

Where's the proof?
Where's the proof?

Just because someone writes someone writes about something DT said in the 1980's in a book they're hawking doesn't make it true.
