That is exactly what he did today. He gave moral equivalency to the alt-right, Neo-Nazi, White supremacist, and white nationalist protesters in Charlottesville and what he called the alt-Left. Go watch the press conference again!

OMG! Y'all are such drama queens. If we lived through Obama, you can make it through Trump. Hating on him 24/7 isn't going to change anything.

You can't say "I voted for Trump for other reasons, despite the fact that he was openly racist." You have to admit "Yes I voted for a racist, therefore I am willing to condone racism, and put a racist in the White House." That makes you complicit in his racism.
Yep, you called us on it. We're all Racists. 66% Whites that voted for him, 33% of Hispanics. 66% of the military, the majority of the Electoral College, and 85% of Law enforcement officers are all Racists.

If this was really the case we would be in a lot worse shape than we are.

And included in those stats are the people who previously voted for Obama but not for Hillary. They're really racists! Bad, bad racists... shame on them!

So, you concede that there was nothing racist about questioning 0bama's citizenship?

Citizenship does not equal race.

People have also questioned the citizenship eligibility of Ted Cruz.

Nuthin' special about 0bama in this regard.

On that note I'm going to put on my little pointy white hat and go roast marsh mellows over an open fire in the back yard

No, it was 100 % racist. I'm not going to re-argue the racist vicious birther campaign against Obama.

"Whether Trump’s election reveals an “inherent malice” in his voters is irrelevant. What is relevant are the practical outcomes of a Trump presidency. Trump campaigned on state repression of disfavored minorities. He gives every sign that he plans to deliver that repression. This will mean disadvantage, immiseration, and violence for real people....If you voted for Trump, you voted for this, regardless of what you believe about the groups in question. That you have black friends or Latino colleagues, that you think yourself to be tolerant and decent, doesn’t change the fact that you voted for racist policy that may affect, change, or harm their lives. And on that score, your frustration at being labeled a racist doesn’t justify or mitigate the moral weight of your political choice."

You did it. You put a white nationalist in the White House, surrounded by his eerie alt-right staff. You Trump voters brought this horrible scourge upon America. Own it.


There is no such thing as a good Trump voter.

You can call yourselves people who simply wanted to Make America Great Again but you threw your lot in with people who wanted to vote in "a white champion to undo and beat back the symbolic and literal progress embodied by President Barack Obama, Trump’s voters yearning for a mythic past where black and brown people were fully obedient to whites, women had not been seduced by feminism, and gays and lesbians were locked in the closet."

Lets see, My dads Hispanic, voted for Trump, My Cousins Gay, him and his boyfriend voted for Trump. I even have a Lesbian cousin. Guess what? Voted for Trump. Guess we are all doomed And the craziest part is we all have college degrees

Nice little Leftist Doom and Gloom article, on how the Evil White people are out to get the Black and Brown people. I see Obama's Communist buddy Van Jones wrote the following article on how to resist Trump
