Barack Obama was a bigot towards gays a mere 7 years ago when he declared that he believed marriage was between a man and a woman yet I'll bet you cast your vote for him.
Doesn't bother me at all, but they represent Black people much in the same way that a toothless, backwoods, cousin-marrying hillbilly represents White people...they don't.
In any case, I've lost the desire to discuss. You all are exactly who I thought you were. Thanks though, it's been fun.
Buh bye! We don't need your hateful rhetoric in this thread.
Trump is just the mouthpiece for a pack of white racist nationalists with a bad case of xenophobia. It's his followers who are racist and he plays to that crowd. It's the fact that every black person at a Trump rally is automatically considered a thug. It's a 78 year old white dude sucker punching a black man as he is peacefully being led out of a rally and then threatening to kill him the next time. It's calling brown people rapists and criminals.
As for Trump, if he thought singing Kumbaya with a room full of black mammas on welfare would enhance his brand or personal status, he'd do it in an instant.
Mass stupidity has overtaken the nation.
His actions - particularly the clear violations of the fair housing statutes - scream "racist."
Now, I fully accept that people don't perceive refusing to rent to blacks as racism.
They, like Trump, can doubtless come up with all sorts of justifications to explain why they don't consider it racism.
That's what racists do.
No that would be discrimination...preferential treatment.
Racism is when you think one race is superior to another.
"I don't want to live next to a Black person" is a form of discrimination.
"Black people are too stupid to be going to public school" is a form of racism.

You are getting at semantics that most voters either don't realize it's not the same, or do know it's not but don't care that it's isn't. Me, I see it as the same disease, just different phases.
The people at Trump's rallies might have demonstrated racism,but that is my question,which nobody can seem to answer-
Why are black people at Trump's rallies if he has not said anything against their group?
Second,how do we know the guy just did not punch him just because he was a protester?
Post #25 listed three examples him being a racist from Trumps early career.
I reposted them in post #151.
They show that Trump has always had issues with blacks.
As the OP are you claiming they did not happen?
Or are you claiming they don't make Trump a racist?
They do not.
They did not come out of his mouth.
A lot are actually hearsay.
The comment about guys wearing Jewsih guys counting his money might actually be bigoted and anti semitic.
Sort of like the way I felt when I found out Barack Obama attended the church of a virulently racist pastor for twenty years. It wouldn't even have been such a bad thing but this pastor's actual sermons were virulently racist and Obama, along with his wife and two young daughters, attended those sermons and went back week after week for more.
You might feel differently if you saw the entire sermons from Rev. Wright and think about them in context of history and experience of blacks in this country. I did, and I am not black.
Now,do not get me wrong,he has made anti Hispanic and anti-Islam comments,but i have not seen anti-black comments.
He has not made any anti-Hispanic comments. He has stood against ILLEGAL aliens.
As for Islam (it's a "religion," not a race), everything he has said is correct. I agree that we should not be allowing anymore Muslims into the country, ESPECIALLY the so-called "refugees,' many of whom are militant Islamist Jihadists with evil intent, and no way to identify them. Remember the Boston bombers, and the San Bernardino attack. And that is to name only two incidents. There have been many others.
