    Ex-RNC chair says Trump is racist: 'The evidence is incontrovertible'

    Former Republican National Committee chairman Michael Steele said Friday “the evidence is incontrovertible” that President Trump is a racist following his reported remarks on Haiti and African countries.

    In an appearance on MSNBC’s “Live with Hallie Jackson,” Steele was asked if he thinks Trump is racist. “Yeah, I do,” Steele said. “At this point…the evidence is controvertible.”

    Steele also said Trump uses race as a tool “to move people emotionally to a space where he wants them to be to get a reaction out of them.”

    “There are a whole lot of folks like Donald Trump,” Steele said. “White folks in this country who have a problem with the browning of America…When they talk about [wanting] their country back, they are talking about a country that was very safely white, less brown and less committed to that browning process.”

    Donnie the Bigot ran his campaign based upon bigotry, which was
    consistent with his past:

    • 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 spent years claiming that the nation’s first black president was born not in the United States but in Africa, an outright lie that Trump still has not acknowledged as such.

    • He began his 2016 presidential campaign by disparaging Mexican immigrants as criminals and “rapists.”

    • He has retweeted white nationalists without apology.

    • He frequently criticizes prominent African-Americans for being unpatriotic, ungrateful and disrespectful.

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

    • He is quick to highlight crimes committed by dark-skinned people, sometimes exaggerating or lying about it (such as a claim about growing crime from “radical Islamic terror” in Britain). He is very slow to decry hate crimes committed against dark-skinned people (such as the murder of an Indian man in Kansas last year).

    • At the White House yesterday, Trump vulgarly called for less immigration from Haiti and Africa and more from Norway.

    administration.

    Donnie the Bigot also received the endorsement of the KKK

    Poor Michael Steele doesn't know what "racist" means either apparently.

    If the president can’t control himself and lead this country with the authority, dignity and leadership it requires, then he shouldn’t be the president. There’s no room for racism in the Oval Office.

    Racism is only one of the many reasons Crooked Donnie shouldn't be president.

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

    None of the things Trump said is racist. And it's odd that you know what a Stormfront poster sounds like because I don't.

    It sounds like a post I would see over at Stormfront when it was still up. It was a funny site.

    Anyone who doesn't immediately move to Africa is a racist.

    The brutal truth is that a lot of black people don't like white people and a lot of white people don't like black people. A lot of both black and white people don't like orientals and vice versa. We are all going to have to interbreed with each other for the next 200 years before we can finally all get over the racism. And that applies to everybody.

    So is calling the birther movement racist.

    But people still misuse it as evidence of Trump being racist.

    That's a question. How many US liberals (non-gay of course, they'd be killed in Africa) moved there?

    Was it more or less than the number of liberals who moved out of Detroit, Los Angeles, New York and Chicago to gated communities of all white people?

    Yes, why is it racist to call poverty ravaged countries led by one generation of corrupt dictators after another shitholes? How does race even fit into that? And thanks for making the case that the countries are shitholes - I guess that makes you a racist.
