Calling Black people "stupid" is racist.

And with stuff like job discrimination, police brutality, racial profiling, it is not hard to convince Blacks of "victimhood". Blacks are already looked down on and treated worse than other groups. I don't find many Republicans speaking out against police brutality, job discrimination, and racial profiling. Democrats don't have to convince Black people of "victimhood". Black people are feeling it daily.

And explain this. How does Trump expect to get more Black votes by calling Black people "stupid"? And I also think about other Republicans who have talked about Black people as if they are some kind of burden on society. Why would I vote for a politician who talks about my race in such ugly terms?

I acknowledged the validity of your statement of black unemployment going down and THAT'S what you come back with? Wow.

I've written much about this kind of racist mindset... Let some of these Right Winger tell it, there is no Racism, when many are themselves not only racist, but bigots, gender bias and have issues with others ethnic cultures.

The imagery at the Republican Convention and Trump Rally's tell the aware minds what they need to know about who is racist and bigots... and the history of America has massive documents that clearly points out the fact that racism and bigotry and delusions of superiority is specific to the Right Wingers throughout America's history. If it was not for them, America would not have a racism problem, and it would not have a gender bias problem and we would not have a society that worships anyone with money as if that is the measure of a human being.

No one is unaware of the racism and bigotry and gender bias of Trump and many of those who follow him. The white nationalist and many racist hate groups... is conclusive fact... of the sector that embraces, harbors and support and promotes the racist ignorance in this Country.

Put it simple as possible...if you hit your finger with a hummer why would you do it again and again?

1) It is "hammer" not "hummer".

2) I'm asking the questions here. I'll answer your question when you answer mine.

I'm sorry, did the OP use the word "explosive" to describe something in Vanity Fair?

So far, no one from the White House or President Trump himself has denied making aforementioned comments. Considering his nutty tweets and other things he has said, and given his brutish manner, it is very easy for me to believe he made those comments.

^To add more. Considering those comments, garnering the Black vote will be less likely in this case. Ask this. Why vote for someone who basically makes disparaging comments about your race/ethnicity?

So it's fake news but people are still posting like it's real. Why? Confirmation bias?
