Lol... No one thought it was racist, which is why the DoJ sued him twice for it? The only reason he got a pass in the 90s on is bc people thought he changed and gave him the benefit of doubt. Obviously we were all wrong.

BUT a private person using that "N" word is inconsequential.

In short ACTIONS speak louder than words... and Private past history actually has actions that prove his vindictive views of "Blacks".. BUT since taking oath of Office, he's enacted EO that also prove his distain for non-white people.. Black/Brown/Asian/Religious persuasion .. So do have to conclude he is not just racist.. BUT has become a total phobiatic against ALL who don't vote/kiss his BUTT or mostly his 25%'er's who would follow his directives to hurt/harm/threaten/kill .. including Media!

There's something very very wrong right now.. and no outsiders would chose to travel down there right now unless forced to!! That includes myself and pretty well anybody I know!

So Uttering the " N" word is the least of his problems!! Talk is CHEAP, BUT Actions have consequences.. including empowering anarchists/Nationalists!!

AND~~ YES, GOP majority in Congress is also held accountable because they are enabling such behaviour/actions

Trump was sued for violating the Fair Housing Act. He was not found guilty of having done so, or of doing anything wrong. Furthermore after that, they put in numerous safeguards to insure that their properties were rented without consideration of race. 1000s of property owners were sued in a similar manner.



Of course you left out that part.

I agree that actions speak louder than words. Which is why I see his actions like actively separating minority children from their parents at border crossings, of deciding that he doesn't want anymore Blacks from sh*thole countries, or banning travel for people from certain countries as evidence of his racism in action.

Keep trying. You're almost there. Maybe a couple more lies and strawmen?

The GOP argument has always been that the racists are outliers who could never advance up the party and would never have the support of the Republican base, so minority views about the GOP are unfounded....

Too bad Trump has thrown that argument into the mud with his own vile history which the Republican base have actually accepted and defended. So much for minority fears being unfounded.

So, with this obvious lie being put to bed, is it time for Republican voters to just accept that the gut feeling that minority voters have had for the GOP has been right all along? Is it time for Republicans to accept that the overwhelming support for Democrats from Black and Brown voters is due to not wanting to support the modern pro-racism platform that the GOP?

Let's accept facts, that at the moment when Republicans could have put to bed the idea that they are a party that shares philosophical branch who share
Wth are you talking about? When did Trump use the "n" word. Link, video, something please.

Your attempt to call Trump racist is not backed up by ANY fact.

That he pled out and agreed to a settlement with the gov't to dismiss the case? Yes it is all right there. Thank you for proving my point.

If that were really true, wouldn't you be looking for a continent more sympathetic to your outlook. Just a thought.

We'll all just have to wait and see what happens in November, won't we?

I can smell the fear all over your post. It's a little pathetic.

No actually it's a lot pathetic.
