The outbreak of violence in Chicago at the Donald J. Trump rally is indicative of the tenor of his campaign & how he evokes a white nationalist, racist element of Americans. Not only does Trump not take responsibility for the culture he's created, he goes further and calls the protestors "THUGS". That's code for black folks. He didn't use that word or any similar descriptor to describe the white man who sucker punched a black protestor at a previous rally. People have the right to support who they want, but for ME those who support Trump's candidacy endorse a man who has given NO details on policy, has used degrading language towards women, blacks, muslims, war vets & the disabled. To be clear, he embodies #whiteprivilege and pushes a narrative that not only highlights how divided we are, BUT moves to drive that wedge even deeper. My hope is that this provokes REAL dialogue about the deep history and impact of #racism in America. Things won't get better by just praying and hoping. We MUST heed the call to ACTION.
This whole Campaign of making America great again is some BS. I'm sorry but the history of racism and the hell America has caused on this planet no ones campaign should say such words. We already made America great again.
It's only been 50 something years since the civil rights movement. How are we excatly making America great again when we not to long ago just come out of the worst times in American history.
Not sure how you post here -- this is not a "safe space"
You do know that KKK was a Democratic Party institution. You also do know that Democrats fought the Civil Rights movement tooth and nail. You also do know that a Democratic President interned the Japanese. You also do know that a Democratic Prez re-segragated the civil service that a Republican Prez fought hard for.
You do know that dark, despicable, anti-black, racist, pro-slavery history of the Democratic Party, correct?
my fear detector explodes each time I place it on your posts..why so much fear of a man who is willing to stop the country from falling off the cliff? just because he is white and does not cater to political correctness movement?
No you can't take the truth. I was taught to fear no man. You can use those lines on someone else. Won't work over here. You are the reason the republican is so white washed now. The GOP will never diversify if doesn't change its platform to include everyone
here we go... we have an online trump protestor....
Ignore these left wing nuts who will bash Trump no matter what. Their opinion means NOTHING and will NOT deter Trump's campaign. People see through the BS these protester for what they are and what they represent. Fruck them all!

you mix color imbalance with racism. see post# 1771 for some historical perspectives.

The GOP as an institution is not preventing anyone from joining its ranks by virtue of that individual's race, gender, sexual orientation, etc. In case you forgot, it's the GOP that still has two latinos running for POTUS an one black man who recently dropped out while the Democratic fields was lilly white (though there's nothing wrong with that in the sense the Democratic party did not prevent any non whites from running either).
You're not going to get the shameless pandering to group XYZ from republicans as you see from Democrats. If you want a party that panders in a cynical way to specific groups, there's already a party (Democratic) for that.
that won't happen because by mid April, trump will have become the gop nominee and undergoing some customized presidential bootcamps to prepare for the general election as a well polished politician and candidate...
I know that the dem supporters don't like to hear that because they involunteerly agree that only trump can deliver a KO to either Hillary or sanders.

very clear and good points. it is understandable that when people are in a fear mode, one tends to lose the ability to reason.

Well we shall see in a few more months.If Trump is the nominee the democratic base will be active and overcome the typical voter suppression tactics. Main streamers will not want to be assciated with people who come to your conclusions. We the people will have moderate supreme court justices and that will be great. So enjoy the ride. You guys have made it possible. I was really afraid for HILLARY but she would be elected even if guilty of a crime. Thanks Trump, Thanks Trump supporters, lol. Then you can wallow in two more terms of your own fear, anger, and simmering in misery while America continues advancing inspite of your beliefs.
You have to be intellectually bankrupt to amount your identity to skin color or genitalia. Hey, what happened to the idea that your identity is about what's between your two ears?
When there's nothing there, then people resort to the superficials.
