    If everyone is a racist no one is a racist.

    Correct, and if she doesn't produce any evidence, it's pure "he said/she said" bullshit. SSDD. No need for you to become butt-hurt about it or take it personal.

    Yes, if everyone is a racist the label becomes irrelevant.

    That would be "Koo koo ka cho".

    Only a trap for perjurers, liars and other scumbags.

    Like Trump once said "If you're not guilty of a crime, what do you need immunity for?"

    It's what she said before vs. what she said later.
    The real debate seems to be in Omarosa's head.

    Agreed. It waters down the meaning just like the overuse of Nazi and fascist. We have RWNJs labeling Socialists, Liberals and Antifa as fascists. It's silly.

    Agreed to a point. Most importantly, it's what people, regardless of political alignment, can prove.

    I am a lot like Inspector Kluseau, I suspect everyone, yet I suspect no one. I believe everything and yet I believe nothing. And, snap!!! The case is solved!

    Given that Trump has been a closely followed public figure for decades it is clear that he is not in the habit of uttering racist slurs.
    He would have been tagged and bagged long before 2016.

    The only really interesting question is how effective Omarosa's book publicity campaign has been. Is it a best seller?

    No. The race of the person using it has no effect on whether or not it's racist.
    you mean like in Ethiopia we don't have a ruler here.

    yes racist people wouldn't be friends with people they can car inferior or of no value.

    yes if you view other people as inferior you typically don't see them as Superior IE hot.

    no man who has ever occupied the White House is fit to rule no man in existence is fit to rule a president is not a ruler.

    The similar difference between a Republic and Democratic Republic of North Korea.

    National Socialism used some aspects of socialism, but was fascist. On the political compass, they were fairly centered on the Left-Right spectrum but maxed out on the Authoritarian-Libertarian spectrum.

    Whenever a prosecutor can find any source to contradict a targets testimony a brand new investigation starts.
    Only a fool would voluntarily submit to questioning by a special prosecutor.
    So be of good cheer! If your theories about Trump are right - he will talk to Mueller. ;-)

    How did you know where I worked?

    I suspect everyone, yet I suspect no one. I believe everything, yet I believe nothing.

    Stalin, Hitler and Mao were totalitarian leaders. Where do you place Lenin, Mussolini, Franco on your chart?

    Omarosa Manigault Newman has been one of Trump's longest-serving associates, and knows him as well as anybody. After being paid the big bucks to sing Trump's praises (that Trump worshipers eagerly swallowed and Trump skeptics did not) she now describes him as a mentally deteriorating, racist, lewd, charismatic, and emotionally abusive narcissist.

    I have no reason to adhere to either of Omarosa Manigault Newman's widely differing explications of Trump.

    Perceiving Trump as a mentally deteriorating, racist, lewd, charismatic, and emotionally abusive narcissist does not require her belated testimony.

    Disagreed on the "closely followed". Sure he's a "personality" who has continually sought to put himself in the limelight which isn't the same thing. His *****-grabbing thing never came to light until he entered politics. Why? Because most people didn't give a **** until then. As for his racism, same thing. The media is a business and if people don't give a **** if a person is a racist or not, they won't bother to report it. That doesn't mean the person isn't a racist.

    As for Trump, he has a history just like all of us. If you or I entered the national limelight, I'm sure more people would take an interest in shoving a microscope up our asses. It's a reasons why only the most deplorable people enter politics. :)

    Trump didn't care about what people thought about him until he tried to enter politics beginning in 1999. Then he became a historical revisionist. IMHO, he's a typical New York ************ hustler and only caring about himself. The best thing about him is that he beat Hillary in the election. It will be the best thing he's done for this country in his 4 year (or less) as President. [​IMG]

    Earlier in that same year Trump helped fan the flames of racial resentment when black and Latino teens were arrested in the infamous “Central Park jogger” attack. Trump alone chose to pay for $85,000 worth of full-page newspaper ads trumpeting, in capital letters, “BRING BACK THE DEATH PENALTY. BRING BACK OUR POLICE!” In the text Trump objected to then-Mayor Ed Koch’s plea for peace: Mayor Koch stated that “hate and rancor should be removed from our hearts. I do not think so.”...

    ...Next in the Trump record on race came a 1991 book by John O’Donnell, who had been president of Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City. O’Donnell quoted Trump saying,“ Black guys counting my money! I hate it. The only kind of people I want counting my money are short guys wearing yarmulkes… Those are the only kind of people I want counting my money. Nobody else…Besides that, I tell you something else. I think that’s guy’s lazy. And it’s probably not his fault because laziness is a trait in blacks.”

    O’Donnell’s report was shocking, but Trump did not contest it at the time. In 1997 he was interviewed for Playboy by author Mark Bowden and he confirmed that the O’Donnell book was “probably true.”

    As well acquainted as she is with the N word, one has to wonder how often she has said it or listened to family or friends saying it and not complaining over any of that?

    Party animals cannot use the racist slurs and get away with it for a week in NYC. For decades? No way.

    Disagreed, but time will tell if there's a racist "*****-grabbing" equivalent tape against Trump.

    Not in the pejorative sense you mean. Everyone pays attention to race. ONLY bigots allow that to dictate the terms.
