    They are so proud of their delusions.

    If one stands with (and thus allows oneself to be counted as supporting) those who are availing themselves of their speech rights, one is contributing to their position.

    It matters where you stand. Where you stand is speech.

    I agree that if he was one of those yelling, that could contribute to some other issue - such as whether he was inciting or just standing in support.

    If he didn't want to support the opinion of those he was standing with, then he needed to remove himself.

    But, he was very clearly quite happy with those he was standing with.

    ???

    No. I very clearly stated that blackface is deeply racially offensive - REGARDLESS of any other color.

    And I'm saying that your perspective is outdated. Why must you live in the past?

    Until we old farts die off and can no longer poison minds with our old thinking, they can't move past us.

    Stop programming them to think in racial terms. The black-themed day is just a color-themed day. You are imposing your outdated conditioning upon it.

    I don't think we have eight years to waste on either Trump or Sanders, and it is indeed a waste on Trump and would be a waste on Sanders.

    We need to spend more, private and public, on R&D, infrastructure that improves growth, and worker training. We need to cut investment in non-producing assets like residential housing and hog vehicles. We need to shift spending away from personal consumption (no more personal tax cuts, especially for the top 1% whose incomes start at $420,000) to savings and investment. We will not get sustained higher growth without moving in the aforementioned direction.
    He could do what I suggested above and I would consider supporting him (some of his other actions are unacceptable). Sanders won't get my support, either, because he isn't proposing higher growth policies.

    You're a spent force bereft of ideas.

    Exactly. Projecting some meaning from the past which is completely irrelevant today on anyone’s actions to “prove” racism is absurd and intellectually dishonest. And additionally perpetuates the falsehood that the US is a racist nation when that is not true.

    Who are you talking about? The student who was told, like the other students, to gather there to wait for their bus?

    Would you have him wander off somewhere else?

    I'm beginning to think that you have no clue, at all. I'm beginning to think that you are just doing some knee-jerk hating on these kids, because you are hopelessly politically biased.

    Trump’s supply side economics are growing the economy just as those policies have resulted in superior economic growth starting with Reagan.

    Not one kid did a thing wrong.

    The maggots were the racists and leftist actor.

    You do realize everyone knows you are wrong about this?

    The only bigotry here is from the Black Hebrews. Bigotry that does involve hate of Donald but also any white President. But of course, for you, wearing a MAGA hat is by definition bigotry.

    You're uninformed about what's going on with the economy.

    Real wages have declined since Trump took office.

    [​IMG]

    Real economic growth is about what it was in 2014 without the big Trump deficit.

    [​IMG]

    Unrmployment was steadily coming down and Trump only continued a ten year trend.

    [​IMG]

    The deficit was going down and now it's going up.

    [​IMG]

    BTW, more jobs were added in 2014 than for 2018.

    Here's the Big Nothing we've seen over the last two years. You're on the wring track.

    Agreed.

    This phenomenon can be seen here on the forum regularly.

    They aren't here to discuss facts.

    They are here to emote, for their "team".

    Are you saying we don't have record low unemployment? We do...agreed it's come down, from the double digits we had this time 8 years ago.

    Wages and salaries are up 3.1% https://www.cnbc.com/2018/10/31/wag...3point1percent-highest-level-in-a-decade.html

    This is the greatest it's been in over a decade.

    Real Wages are actually up....https://www.bls.gov/news.release/pdf/realer.pdf
