    Ha ha, I get slammed for showing the 98 Jesse Jackson praise when someone claimed he was a racist decades ago but now you have to go back to the 70's when he worked for his father to try and conflate the 70's with today.

    Were you one of the Democrats who numerous times in the past who called Michael Steele an Uncle Tom ???

    The Secret War On Black Republicans
    Why are racist attacks on black Republicans so underreported by the media?
    There has been much written about the racial rhetoric that has permeated political discourse since President Obama took office, and the media often highlights the racially inflammatory language used by some of his opponents. But racially charged language targeting black Republicans rarely receives much coverage, further fueling conservative suspicion of the mainstream media.

    That list also had stuff from "today", you're the one who got mad at recent stuff saying it was cause of the election. So I linked something before the election.

    From the 70's when he worked for his father. Yeah, you got to go way back to a different era when things were much different yet it was the left that defended a previous Klan member Senator Byrd. You guys are hilarious.

    Of course it does.

    I added one more to the list.

    It makes as much sense as the other ones.

    Explain to us how claiming Obama was born in Kenya is "racist".

    So you won't let me post recent stuff. I can't post old stuff.

    Hmm...your arbitrary rules keep changing.;

    I doubt Christ would move into an apartment and stop paying the rent and working the legal system to be able to live rent free for six months before getting invicted.

    I dunno, some of this stuff seems pretty cut and dry,

    • Trump’s real-estate company was sued twice by the federal government in the 1970s for discouraging the renting of apartments to African-Americans and preferring white tenants, such as “Jews and executives.”

    • In 1989, Trump took out ads in New York newspapers urging the death penalty for five black and Latino teenagers accused of raping a white woman in Central Park; he continued to argue that they were guilty as late as October 2016, more than 10 years after DNA evidence had exonerated them.

    • He called some of those who marched alongside white supremacists in Charlottesville last August “very fine people.”

    "Why do we need more Haitians? Take them out."
    “Why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here?”

    I doubt Christ (as a brown man himself) would be sued twice by the federal government for discouraging the renting of apartments to African-Americans and preferring white tenants, such as “Jews and executives.”

    Or are you contesting those federal lawsuits?

    Except that they're lies, you mean?

    He said there were bad people on both sides, and some were good people. He never said white supremacists were good people.

    We don't need more Haitians and their extremely high rates of crime.

    I'm still waiting for you to explain how saying Obama is from Kenya is "racist".

    You going to keep dodging on that one too? Didn't work out well for you the last time either.

    And if you had the slightest bit of education on those fake lawsuits never did he lose or was forced to admit he did anything wrong.

    Typical defeated post.

    Did you just ever notice that the left doesn't live with the people they say are oppressed victims? The left doesn't live in black communities, gay communities, Muslim communities, illegal alien communities, etc. I wonder why that is?

    They can't and won't. They were told something is racist and that's all they need to know.

    I don't think that one was racist. No reason to dodge or deflect.

    Btw, your link in no way states there was absolutely no discrimination at all.

    None of that is anywhere near cut and dry. I would suggest you learn the definition of racism and work your way up from there.

    When Obama said, as you quoted, people are fleeing corrupt countries with uncontrolled gang violence, high murder rates, high crime rates and human trafficing, he was making political comment.

    When Trump claims Africa, El Salvador, and Haiti are sh*tholes, it's because he thinks immigrants from those countries are sh*t. (For coming to the US.)
    But even if they wouldn't come Trump still considers them untermensch.

    Yes it does.

    Tenants were turned away based on their income and ability to pay rent, not their color, and the documents have been made available by the FBI.

    It's the same thing as claiming calling for the death penalty of rapists who happen to be black is racism. It's not. It's because they're rapists.

    Trump was never found guilty, and never admitted to any wrong-doing.

    You can accuse anyone of anything, that doesn't make it true, like all of your examples.

    None of which means Trump is a racist.

    Trumps supporters consist of people from all races, so by definition he can't be a racist.

    Do you think Hitler had Jews supporting him? Well, other than Soros.

    Show us some signs that say "Jews for Hitler" or something.

    Ad Hominem attack. I do have an education. I'm an Indo-American, so that much is highly likely.

    Straw Man. I never stated he lost that lawsuit or admitted to wrong doing. I'm well aware of this.


    Also, do you have citation showing the lawsuit was fake?

    Defeated post? What does this even mean?

    Most countries take immigrants
    from the most developed and educated nations. Why does the US do just the opposite?

    Why is our policy skewed towards
    a game show lottery style immigration system that takes people from El Salvador and Haiti instead of the more accomplished applicants from India, Korea, Czech Republic, Hong Kong etc. who are dying to get here?

    I have to agree with Trump, though I would choose my words more carefully. Sounds like you have a problem with style over substance.
