    Even the Siemon Wiesenthal center said his tweets are racist, in defense of them members of congress opposing Israel.
    So that really does say how it is.

    I don't think so. What they said is: “Every American came from somewhere. Time for everyone in #WashingtonDC to drop the identity politics #racism.” I agree with that.

    Trump's tweet was not racist. It was heartfelt, honest, and something he has said in various ways to Schumer, Pelosi, et al. If you can't say to black people or Hispanic people or Arab people or any other people what you say to white people, the problem is racial identity politics that separates people by race, i.e. racism, and not what the person said.

    Weisenthal's Rabbi Marvin Heir, praises Trump:

    It was. The word racism is right there in the tweet you've quoted. And here you are pretending it was not. lol

    I didn't say it was not. But I dont' think it was aimed at the President but at the whole ridiculous mindset of identifying any criticism or comment directed toward anybody who isn't a white Christian of European descent as being racist. That's what identity politics is.

    The entire tweet was aimed at the president. I dunno how you are able to conclude that 1 word wasn't. Sounds more like you are way to reluctant to accept the opinion of the Wiesenthal center.
