Sneaking suspicion? More like a desperate hope that somehow a way can be found to paint anything Trump does as racist. Cause it just feels so good to cry racist.
What do you call this statement?
"I thought the KKK was alright, until I found out the smoke marijuana".
What do you call referring to Black men as "boy"?
What do you call someone who was heavily involved with a movement with white supremacist leanings(Bannon and his involvement with the alt-right)?
It's safe to say that you weren't in the room when Sessions allegedly said that. So that means that someone, who probably also told you that Trump would never be president told you that. And we all know how accurate and truthful they were...
green_mariner - consider the context of your KKK comment. Sessions was a US Attorney prosecuting some Klan members for murder with the death penalty. Think /sarcasm when he made the marijuana comment. A word describing his behavior could be hero - he broke the Klan and a Klan member was executed.
From the Washington Post: The accusations mostly came from (but were not limited to) Sessions's former deputy, Thomas Figures. He sent a letter to the Senate and reporters claiming his boss said insensitive things about black people, at times directly to him.
Figures, who is black, said Sessions told him to be careful about what he said ''to white folks” after Figures got into a heated argument with a white colleague. And Figures testified Sessions called him “boy” on multiple occasions.
Although I am white, I think Trumps selections for cabinet will not hold water. He has real problems with finding good people. Therefore, he moved towards appointing people from the very right wing of the Republican Party. These ultra conservatives didn't like, endorse or support Trump. By appointing them, he hopes to appease and bring them closer. But, it won't hold water. In any case, interesting times ahead.
