Maher is likely Jewish, but am not certain. Rest assured she will defend Jews like there is no tomorrow, while throwing patriots who love our country under the bus.
You know, massive amount of immigrants for thee, but not for mee.
Meaning Israel of course.

In 2015, Trump retweeted a tweet from a Neo-Nazi Twitter account. And that twitter post had some falsified statistics about crime in the Black population. And the post cited a source that doesn't even exist. Trump was also known for leading the birther movement against Obama back in the early days. In addition, Trump also blamed Obama for the 2015 riots in Baltimore. He said "Our great African American President hasn't exactly had a positive impact on the thugs who are so happily and openly destroying Baltimore!". He went racial and blamed Obama for those riots.

Those things that Trump said, that would give me reason to believe he's a racist. I don't get how saying those things wouldn't be perceived as racist.

Maybe the truth is racist and that is what scares people the most.

People don't realize they are their own worst enemy.

I wrote down specifically what Trump said or tweeted. Those specific statements, how were they not racist?

I don't care if he is racist, Obama was the most racist president I have ever seen and I voted for him the 1st go around.

Trump agreeing to make a verbal cameo on a Wu-Tang album would lead me to believe he is not racist.

Blacks are adept at seeing racism anywhere and everywhere but we all know that.

What do you mean, you people!!!

"to believe he's a racist."

Racist DON'T hire people who are of another color.

MANY blacks were on his TV show,

He even hired one to work for him AFTER she appeared on the show!

"He went racial"

And dems never do?

Post all the ones you have complained about.

I won't hold my breathe!

"Our great African American President"

Wasn't he an "African American President?

So if you call someone who is white, "white" is that being racist?

I haven't heard many conservatives on NPR. At the same time, when someone calls NPR "anti-White", I shudder because I haven't heard any of that.
They are the opposite of NPR's agenda.
Yes, they have an agenda.......partly at taxpayer expense too.

U.S. taxpayers contribute approximately $0.02 annually toward NPR via the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and other federal monies. I'm sure if you asked NPR nicely, they'd return your share to you.
