Yeah, he is. Even though you might not like "the squad" he told them to go back to their country when they're American citizens. He also opened a shitstorm of hate towards Latinos with the whole they're all rapists and drug dealers. He has done a fantastic job of making the country the most divisive it has been in recent history.

Was a stupid comment on his part

He made it very clear before and after those remarks what he meant and y’all are twisting it. He said many aren’t and even most aren’t, but at the same time many are rapist and drug dealers coming across. He has praised Hispanics many times, many times, no coverage of that.

The media and racist white democrats are the ones doing that

I'd say that had more to do with their politics than race.
That said, it was cheap and not a good look.

One of the sources who was briefed on the conversation quoted him as saying
So, he said/she said, like I said.

They’re shithole countries
Not wrong, if he truly said that.
quote:
We should have more people from Norway.
Which is not carte blanch, as you implied earlier. Again, assuming he said that (doesn't matter either way, but for the sake of argument).
quote:
Is calling a location a shithole automatically racist?
I don't know, is it?
No. I call Austin, TX, a shithole. I also call other US states shitholes at varying intervals. Not racist in the least.

Does the idea that you might have voted for a racist strike a little too close to home?
Nothing you laid out indicates racism in the slightest, then you try to put this at the end as some sort of gotcha? Come on, man. Do better than that mess.

He also told them to fix said countries and come back. Convenient how you omitted that.

You mean when he quoted border patrol personnel saying they're dealing with said criminals entering in droves?

Country was already divisive. Try a different tack.

Trump is racist?...What is the basis for this?
The three I've heard most often are:
1 His take on the Central Park 5.
2 The lawsuit over discrimination in the 70s.
3 His stance on illegal immigration.
None of them hold much water to me, but they can look bad when taken out of context.

If he's racist then... how do we square this up if so?
I don't know the answer to that.
But then I didn't claim Trump was racist.

I'll agree that it doesn't demonstrate racism but telling them to come back didn't make it any less cheap.

No, I'm just wondering why you're so excited about it, and mis-representing my post.
Do YOU know if Trump is a racist or not? I doubt it.

Thank you.

Again, we're talking about people that are openly calling him a racist outright while lauding other countries as superior in their policies. While the US economy booms in historic fashion for every demographic.
His response there didn't even rise to the level of equitable turnabout by comparison.

all the women he's sexually assaulted thus far are white. when a black woman comes forward, then we can remove the racist lable.

Why does that change anything? It doesn't change the fact the President of the United States told American citizens to go back to where they came from. Not one of the people he told to go back was white.
quote:

With his remarks, he is rabble-rousing people to be against Latinos. The person who is supposed to represent all of us instead is making a group of people feel very uncomfortable in their country.

Yes, it was divisive but not to the degree it is today.

Based on what? Are we not allowed to call places shitholes now? Also, you erroneously claimed that he said we should let in anyone from Norway who wants to come in order to buttress your point about it not looking good.

Excited? We're just replying to each other back and forth on a message board, man. It's called having a discussion.
You misrepresented a claim made by him, and I noticed it.

Well my younger brother who has met/interacted with the man in person multiple times by express invitation doesn't seem to think so, so I'm going to go with his word over yours when you can't even represent the facts correctly.

I'm black as they come and I love my President and I personally don't think he has a damn single racist bone in his body
