    From when I was a very loyal Democrat and including right now, I have believed in Andrew Young. This man is very very good. Both parties can learn from him. Chuck Todd tried to get him to hate Trump but he refused the bait. Will forum members please end the habit of screeching racist!!!! Thank you and please do not tell me you must screech racist at posters. But tell me if you are pleased by what Andrew Young tells all of us.

    This is like telling dogs not to lick their balls.

    It is worth taking a shot. If you put grease on the dog's balls, he might stop licking them.

    Calling someone or a group Racist used to have some meaning now it is just a fart in the wind.

    Then go ahead...point out which one.

    That is what these threads are for, but sweeping generalizations don't hold much water without something specific to prop it up, and posting FAKE quotes does not serve to the truthfulness of your posts.

    Andrew Young gives a good message here. But, he says nothing about what to do about this president.

    What he gets right:
    He talks about not just telling a drunk that he's a drunk. Good idea. However, there are really only two directions with drunks - waiting however long it takes for them to crash and/or performing an intervention. But, we can't afford to let him crash. It's just FAR too damaging to America both in the US and in terms of our position in the world. So, what remains is intervention.

    What Young gets wrong:
    Nobody is yelling racist at Trump. When I note his racism, I'm asking others to recognize this racism. People are rallying America to recognize a serious problem and, following that, to DO something about it.

    Young missed that entirely.

    I know Andrew Young did well in working with racists in his era. He talked about education through working together. Great! However, Trump isn't interested in working with anyone at all. In fact, I don't know how anyone COULD work with him, given how rapidly he disavows every decision he's claimed to make.

    PLUS, Trump is applying his racism to American policy, affecting all America AND other nations across the globe. That's not the same as some civil rights issue in Alabama or whatever. Losing decades of sanity in Alabama is one thing, but today we are affecting the entire world, including our place in that world.

    Can a guy as old as Trump who is so steeped in racism be changed through education?

    Sorry. This isn't some science lab.

    I'll be happy to stop "screaming" racist whem people stop being racist. At no point prior to then will I tolerate it.
    Fair enough?

    When 98% of everything we purchase is made in China and when Wall Street hiccups and the world convulses, it proves you have an illogical ideology not based on facts.

    Are you suggesting Trump had no non white supporters or only the white ones were deplorable?

    I’m implying Hillary was only calling white people deplorable because, why not? Liberals imply Trump meant ALL Mexicans when he was talking about illegals. So what the hell, right? If liberals can spout fake news 24/7 than we all should.

    He made no racist statement the other day and yet the Leftist-Allied MSM insists that he did. They insist that the racist statement that he did not make proves that he is a racist. He did not in fact grab a p**ssy and yet they lying Left claims that he did; and so forth and so on. It amounts to Sarah Palin saying that she could see Russia from her home when in fact it was the SNL actress PLAYING Palin who said it. But the lying MSM continued to lie about it.

    No. This isn't "America first".

    It's "white first".

    In fact, it is "white first" even in the face of the damage that does to AMERICA both here at home and around the globe - pushing allies away while fueling those who oppose us. It's a concession of American influence while getting only negatives across the board in return.

    It's a total denial of what we stand for as a nation - or once claimed to stand for.

    It draws into doubt what America even IS.
