    I'm a Deplorable and a Cracker. And very proud of both folk titles.

    What this post tells me is the standards of being American, let alone the standards for those holding higher office, is falling and falling at a phenomenal state. What the praise for Norwegians says is that the US should only take in immigrants from Western Europe, and nowhere else.

    Actually no. We don't want their Muslims either.

    That's consistent with the immigration preferences we had in the past, when the US became the strongest country in the world. We got by just fine without El Salvadorans and Haitians, oddly enough.

    It was not racist.

    It was however accurate.

    Like many you seem to have lost sight of what racism means and it has nothing to do with using crude words to describe third world nations.

    Neither statement is anything trump ( or anyone else said )

    He never said white supremacists are fine people or that brown people live in **** holes.

    Why you have to shoe horn race into a statement which had nothing to do with race is bizarre.

    Obsess much?

    Who is, "We?" Is it the "We'" clan that wants America to remain a white majority, Christian based nation? Is it that heartbeat of white supremacy and Christian fanatics. Is that the type of "We" crowd you are making reference to? Because the rest of America doesn't want the only religion to be practiced to be strictly Christianity and the only immigrants being from Western Europe. That time has come and passed.

    That was then, this is now. Is Trump going to dare say Japan is a shithole country as well, because they're Asians and live on a small Island? The days of importing exclusively Western Europeans are over, it would do us all good to deal with that reality.

    Trump expressed no racist beliefs.

    He simply called shitholes shitholes.

    It appears Don has traded in his dog whistle for a bull horn.

    Japan is an advanced country full of educated, industrious people. That's obvious. Why would Trump say that? Japan is about as far as you can go from Haiti.

    Why didn't you answer the question I asked you in the other thread? Can I assume you would not be an open borders advocate for Israel?

    Is that the new left-wing talking point sent out over email? Heh, it's catchy.

    That's the least of your problems. How are you going to re-earn respect for yourself? Cuz while anonymity protects you from revealing your identity you have to live with the knowledge either you just do this to be provocative or you share Don's racist attitude. I hope it's the former.

    Correct, "we" do not want more Muslims. White, black, green, brown, yellow, or mottled. I don't care if someone worships the Sea Lord Kraken, a cow, pronghorned sheep, horned goats, or Budda. No Muslims. No Religion of "Peace".

    I think it's weird you folks resent being called religious bigots or racial bigots and then spew bigotry all over the board. What's up with that?
    BTW, if Don was an honest as you are the travel ban would have died an unconstitutional death months ago. How very odd for a party that likes to pretend it has fidelity to that document.

    LOL .... I wonder what the response of most Hatians would be when asked "Do you think Haiti is a **** hole" ... actually I do not really wonder .. most are going to agree.

    I don't think you know what you are. You are whatever hateful ill informed tweet that falls out of trumps rear. It's clear by your rush to make this post and defend his idiocy. Wait, woops he denied he even said it. That just goes to show how willing you are to lap up his ignorance before you are even sure of what he said. That's not an ideology, that's a cult. It's also the definition of a sycophant.

    Of course you think a bunch of slave owners would identify with you. Just because ideas have been around for some time doesn't mean they are correct or even have merit. People used to think the world was flat and that the earth was the center of the universe. People learned, because educated, and shed the bindings of ignorance that permeated the past. It's called progress.
