Let's see.
  • Trump has been in the public limelight for 35+ years
  • Had a highly rated TV shown for 14 seasons on the very PC, leftist NBC.
  • Has business interests around the world.
Not once during all that time was he ever accused of being a racist. UNTIL.......


He decided to run against Hillary Clinton. And the baseless accusations now are still coming from that machine. Because Democrats are in big trouble if they can't keep their voters on those Democrat Plantations.

I think so.

We have to remember, that in general, we see and hear the extremes (both sides) in the news, otherwise it's not news. I hope it gives a false sense of division.

I could be totally wrong. I thought racism was essentially dead, the remnants of old people and fringe groups. Last couple years I learned I was very wrong about that.

Perhaps societies need to go through spells like this in order to spur greater change (and hopefully for the good)?

What Sources? Name them. You guys are just making it up. Throw out a false accusation and believe it without proof or question. Critically thinking adults don't do this.



It's more made up nonsense

Here you go.

And Michael Cohen, Trump's old lawyer, is the one telling this stuff. If this was known to be a lie, then why has there not been a law suit against Cohen for libel? After all, Trump is the President and could do all matter of damage to Cohen if these were all lies.

They will never admit anything. They don't understand (or care) how anonymous sources work and even given a video they will claim it was doctored. There is not a discussion to had with some.

A dialogue is important, but not with everyone.

Are you truly kidding?

Anonymous Sources? So you are saying that as long as CNN, WaPo, NYT, NBC, ABC, CBS tells you something without proof, you are going to believe it without question?

If so, they love you for it. Now you know why they talk about Trump endlessly.

Too bad, that was not caught on all those tapes he had of Trump.
Meaning... It never happened. Just more slander.

The initial signs do not look encouraging. While the news does show some extremes, I tend to see stupid things in real life. Facebook is one example. While racism might be diminishing with each generation, it has not died. Racial prejudice has not died.
