There is a WordPress blog called Edison Findings. There was a 9/21/2016 entry called "Was Thomas Edison anti-Semitic?" by Lewis Brett Smiler.
The opening paragraph reads:
Quote:
Was Thomas Edison anti-Semitic? There is no simple answer to this question. The inventor believed in many common Jewish stereotypes, and some of his remarks about Jews can be construed as prejudice. However, Edison also expressed support in their quest for freedom and employed them in trusted positions at his laboratory. He once referred to Jews as a “remarkable people,” and the evidence suggests that Edison’s feelings about them were complex.[1]
The closing paragraph reads:
Quote:
We cannot ignore the fact that Edison stereotyped Jews and made prejudiced comments, but they do not tell the whole story of his feelings or relationships with Jewish people. Many of his words and actions seemed to convey acceptance, support, and even admiration. The evidence demonstrates that Edison had mixed feelings towards Jews, and not everything he expressed suggested anti-Semitism.
I think similar things can be said about Trump in that he has mixed feelings towards [specifc race], and not everything Trump expresses suggests racism.
No, that’s just not true. Trump's 40% consists almost entirely of hard core Republicans and white identity voters. The majority of independents loathe him.
If the crooked pollsters have him that high, you know he's doing really really well with the actual voters. He'd doing much better than the hapless community agitator at this point in his presidency.
Trump still winning!
MAGA!
...... hahahaha......
Looks like I was proved right. NPCs can't help themselves.
As a bleeding heart liberal POC, I think Trump is sadly on path for reelection, whether we like it or not. Democrats have yet to produce a viable candidate in the ever-growing crowded field of Democrats. Incumbency is a b*tch!
It’s hard to say if he is racist against color of people’s skin - he keeps attempting to get darker / but he most certainly is very biased against certain people for different reasons.
So ya got nothing refute to my facts, just insults. Typical.
Oh here's another few for ya.
Bill Clinton didn't inhale. And he didn't have sexual relations with that women.
And he didn't meet with the AG on the tarmac to discuss his "wife's" ongoing investigation. It was just to talk about grand kids.
Who cares every one is racist. Racist republican - BAD!. Racist trump - BAD!. Democrat governor dresses as klansman - meh. Hillary calls blacks superpredators - mah, lets run her for President!. Liz Warren - lies about her race to get AA benefits - meh. Lt gov likes to wear blackface - meh.
(2.) a political opportunist who deliberately divides the voters among racial and cultural lines for political advantage
Either way, he’s a scoundrel.
Hint: if you’re being openly praised by avowed white supremacists like David Duke and Richard Spencer, you’re most likely considered to be a racist by the racists themselves or as someone who is advancing their agenda.
