Well many of them were. Do you think the white supremacists would ever vote for a black man for president. Of course not because they are racists. But we are talking about apple and oranges here. Trump goes after anyone who doesn't support him. He degrades his own party if they fall out of line.

How many actual white supremacists do you think there are in this country? I mean, really.

Prove to me that the majority of his critics were opposed to his race as opposed to his policies.

I know many Trump supporters who would gladly have voted for Herman Cain, Allen West, Condaleeza Rice, or even Ben Carson.

Your argument is incorrect and stale.

That couldn't possibly be because 95% of reporting by Leftist media showcases only the negative and nothing positive. No, that couldn't possibly be true!

He is. And it stems from his medical grade-level insecurity and inability to handle criticism. He will absolutely tear at the checks & balances foundations or this nation and usher in autocratic measures if allowed to do so. I am deeply convinced of that. We would not have our Constitution were it left in Donald Trump's hands.

I don't need to prove anything to you. It's your job to be informed

I've watched Fox News and it's pro-Trump propaganda. Breitbart and InfoWars are even worse. When the mainstream media is reporting one thing but you have special news sources that spin the stories to your biases, the alternative media sources are likely to be less reliable than the mainstream media.

There is a link in the OP with his exact statement. Do you know how to click it and read? Do we have to spoon feed you?

But I disagree that it is Trumo who is "dividing the country." I believe it is the media and the establishment political parties who are dividing us.

If you actually listen to Trump, he has said repeatedly, that he wants to make America great for all Americans. The way he wants to do this is by bringing back jobs, stimulating the economy, fixing healthcare, fixing infrastructure, and making Americans safer at home and abroad.
Undoubtedly some of these policies will benefit some people more than others; that's just life.

But it is the media who has the long knives out for him. There are indeed Republicans who don't give a darn that THIS is who Republican voters chose....you have jerks like Romney, Flake and McCain clutching their pearls and acting as if their own poo doesn't stink. Then there are Democrats who are dealing with identity politics because that's all they've got. Hillary is still whining about sexism. Joe Kennedy III is speaking in Spanish.

Trump is offering a path to citizenship for DACA recipients--whom they claim to care so much about--but the Dems will reject it, because obstruction is all they have. And that's where Trump's comments today were right. The people who hate him don't care about accomplishing anything. They don't care about who they are supposed to represent. All they care about is their own hate. It's disgusting and it is wrong.

No, just the opposite.

YOU claimed that people opposed Obama because they are racist. It is up to YOU to prove YOUR claim.
