She is a typical Democrat that ingests the BBC CNN news like it is the gospel never questioning that there might actually be another side to that story, another angle. I was merely letting her know that there is another angle to the charge that Trump is a racist.

Don't worry I didn't convince her of anything. She still hates Trump with a passion but she doesn't really know why.
She probably dislikes him simply because he’s crass

"Bullying" is still a thing but it doesn't seem to have been a thing in the news for a while, except as "harassment" or something similar.

I always see things about racism and sexism online. It must be the crowd you keep and the media you consume which makes you think that is not the case.

CNN and huffpo report today:


https://www.huffpost.com/entry/berni...b650c621e32798

"Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) told Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) during a private meeting in 2018 that he didn’t think a woman could win the 2020 presidential election, four anonymous sources familiar with the exchange told CNN.

Monday’s CNN report was based on accounts from two people Warren spoke with soon after her December 2018 sit-down with Sanders and two other people familiar with the meeting, which the two senators held to discuss the possibility that they would both be running for the Democratic presidential nomination

After Warren told Sanders she believed that broad support from female voters would make her a strong competitor against President Donald Trump, Sanders allegedly responded that he did not believe a woman could win."

LOL. warren has taken off her gloves against "sexist" Bernie.

It was always bull**** that's why. To those of us that aren't blinded by the your team vs my team political propaganda, this was obvious from the very start.

I can't without a doubt say he's a racist but it doesn't change the fact he's a horrible human being who has had a history of objectifying females. I don't think that has changed either..it's just not as obvious as it was in the past.

Or they stole $2M from his private cancer 'charity'

Made fun of a reporter with a disability and mocked him

Called Mexicans "Not sending their best and cause crime and bring drugs" But SOME are good.

Called African Countries "****hole Countries" when most African countries are nicer than Mississippi and Alabama.

Cheated on Melania with that hooker.

Was reportedly 'Very close friends' (In Trump's words) with Jeffrey Epstein for over 15 years. hmm...

Said about his baby daughter, Tiffany, 'Hope she has a nice rack'

Called his Daughter Ivanka 'Hot'

Told Billy Bush he grabbed her by the *****. Whoever her was.

Told a reporter "I like them at 15!"

Picked a VP who supported the use of conversion camps

Called Warren "Pocahontas" and mocked that... in front of a Native American tribe. Who took much offense to that.

During the racial attacks at Charlottesville, said both sides were at fault.


... Its late, and I dont have time to post more. But yeah great president.

Well I hope you learned what the world thinks of mrT - I’m sure many outside our homeland have the same views. I also think she probably is up on her history when the Irish were the hated ones. 2- she too be an immigrant, but as a mil- I can see why she’d keep her mouth shut around you.
