Pretty sad that you bought into the racism angle. I mean, there's plenty of legitimate stuff you could have used as an excuse for not voting for Trump.

And lol if you think Hillary Clinton isn't a racist. That's fricking rich.

Pretty sure Trump started with that angle from day one of his run by scapegoating Mexicans, China, and all Muslims. But yeah, if I bring up the cornerstone of his campaign, I'm all the sudden playing the race card because I'm explicit instead of operating in dog whistles

Because that's totally what I said. Everyone left and right engages in identity politics.

You found a gaffe a politician made, oh man I'm checkmated. I would post of list of stupid things Trump has said, but I'm not sure Chicken has the sever capacity to host it all.

Sure it was a gaffe but only a gaffe in the sense that he allowed his underlying worldview to peak out from beneath his manicured, political facade - not in the sense that he said something he didn't believe.

If you want me to accept that Trump and his voters blame POC for their problems then you need to accept that those on the left do the same thing with white people. It isn't a singular incident.

He's controlled opposition.

I'm not a fan of Trump, he's a closet liberal surrounded by neo-cons but he's way better than Hillary.

I already said both sides engage in identity politics. Bernie's identity politics are class based, not race based. He's said things off the cuff that could make it look like he hates whitey, his general message is clear though.

If we're comparing the number of silly statements he's made that muddy the waters of his message to the number of silly statements Trump has made that confuse his message, the difference is huge. The only thing about Trump that's consistent is appealing to working class whites by blaming brown people for all their problems (as opposed to the 1% who Bernie blames).

And looking at history, who's to blame for the financial crisis and millions losing their jobs? Wall Street and commercial bankers, or Mexicans and China?

Fify, never said a negative thing about people of Hispanic descent.

China


Fail to see how pointing out that China engages in unfair trade and constantly, CONSTANTLY tries to hack our national security system is racist? Did he say anything about Chinese people or Asians in general that was remotely racist?

quote:

and all Muslims.


Personally, I wouldn't have a problem with this (my feelings about that religion aren't exactly a secret) if that's what he actually did, but that wasn't what he did. Not wanting refugees from lands populated by radical Islamic groups =/= prejudice against "ALL Muslims", sorry.

See, you didn't bring up a cornerstone of his campaign, but you played the race card anyway.

Not sure if you're trolling or really can't see how racist his campaign was. Either way my response is, LOL K.

If you're unwilling to look at the facts and instead just stick your fingers in your ears and repeat "racist" over and over again, why should the other side be willing to listen to your point of view?

You didn't address a single thing I pointed out or provide a counter argument, because you're either unwilling to or, more likely, unable to.
