They see more than the "red blue split", they see the ugly white nationalism/racism that has always been part of the fabric of this nation, but in recent decades, it's been the dogwhistle variety intended for a specific audience. The dogwhistle is gone, the bullhorn is now being used.
Thinking Americans, as well as the rest of the democratic world, grimaces.
I thought about what you said. If you think the only thinking Americans are Democrats, you've got another think coming! That is always a very condescending way to make yourself look good at someone else expense.
Al Sharpton is probably gong to call him a racist. Unless, of course, Trump pays him some money as an ‘advisor’. Then the ‘racism’ magically goes away.
I'm sure its just a coincidence that he only attacks people of color.
If he does, it is only because they mistakenly believe he is afraid to be labelled a racist, when he responds to their attacks. He does it to people whether they are white or "of color" if it is warranted by what they did first.
A totally contrived "feud" started and perpetrated by Trump for the expressed purpose of attacking black leaders who were critical of him. You know, the usual childish, un-presidential behavior from this joke of a president.
And look at all the rubes in this thread, falling for it yet again, hook, line and sinker. They are the perfect tools for this con man.
It's not what you say, it's how you say it. Cutting remarks coming from a suspected racist are more likely to be perceived as racist. The comments from the campaigning Mr. Sanders were likely viewed as a criticism of poor Federal support for the impoverished; the comments from Trump are viewed as a racist attack on Elijah Cummings. In contrast to Mr. Trump's remarks, Mr. Cummings district, on the whole, is not doing that badly, at least according to the Baltimore Sun.
People actually drive around Baltimore with white oval stickers that have a black rat on it along with the letters "BALT." And Trump is "racist" for stating the obvious?
Yet another black guy that Trump can point to and ridicule to please his base. Me thinks we have pattern established.
If Sharpton "hates whites," why did he and Trump hang out together for 25 years?
Also, if Sharpton used to "get along well" and "love Trump!" like the President claims, then Sharpton can't "hate whites" since you don't like someone of an opposite race that you're supposed to hate.
