I don't know why immigrants voted for Trump

This is something you really should find out for yourself before deciding that he is racist, because it kinda fucks your theory.

and could care less about Mitt Rommey.

Because again, it completely destroys your lie that Trump is racist. Unless you claim or admit that Romney is more racist than Trump.

Erikmen said:
Trump is by all definitions a racist person.

No, he isn't and you have been completely unable to prove it. By only the most disingenuous, dishonest and ignorant definitions - is Trump a racist.

Erikmen said:
Besides I don't have to prove anything to you.

Because you are wrong and a liar. And you should definitely be thinking twice about labeling someone a racist without being able to prove it with evidence.

He's a racist, period.

Evidence?
Does just repeating it over and over make it true? (The Goebbels method)

You are a radical Trump follower, so nothing here will make you think differently.

WTF? I've stated on more than one occasion that I thought that Trump was racist during the primaries. So I know exactly how wrong your thinking is. I did think differently and I was wrong previously. A friend of mine asked me the same questions - he asked me to prove that Trump was racist, I did my research and I tried to do so. Welp, guess what? Evidence shows that Trump is not racist, I changed my stance accordingly and you should too if you want to be taken seriously and offer legitimate criticism of the president. If you listen to the media talking shit then you might be under the impression that he is racist. You are a radical Trump-hater, so nothing here will make you think differently.

Maybe we should be honest with definitions before labeling someone a a hateful bigot/racist.
Mexican = not a race
Scottish = not a race
Portuguese = not a race
African-American = this term indicates that the skin color of the person is dark, therefore it is a term of race.

Why must I be educating members here on the simplest of concepts? We should've learned this shit in primary school, no wonder there are so many wrong people here claiming Trump is racist. We don't even know what racist means! And I understand, once you've believed a lie for so long you can't consciously backtrack, because then you have to admit that you were wrong or had been duped, and our egos can't be having that. Especially when letting go of some of our hate directed at President Trump.

Wasn't he just in TX handing out food to hungry black people and getting hugged by black children? Let's just all ignore those acts, or let's just claim that they were "fake news" or he was simply acting in front of the cameras to prove that he wasn't racist! Which one is it?

This.

Just because you ignore, dismiss, deny and (implicitly or explicitly) support all the racist things trump has done or said (that people have presented you with repeatedly in this thread) doesn't mean it isn't true.

Trump is an ugly racist, just as he is a slimy sexist and a greedy, self-serving brat.

We could give you pages and pages of supporting evidence for those claims too, but i suspect you'd downplay and deny them also. Sad!

No, you are just seeing racism when it is not there. You've got serious problems with Trump's rhetoric (I can totally understand why it triggers you), but it isn't racist and I've proved that. Feel free to offer your strongest examples of Trump being racist so I can pick them apart and prove that you are a liar - or unable to recognize what racism is.

Wah wah wah. What he actually is is the President and doing a much better job than the last guy.
Which says a lot about the previous incompetent cuck that was in the White House.

I am honestly open to anyone that can prove to me that Trump is a racist. This is a very basic concept but let me explain: being tough on illegal immigrants is not racist.
Saying that someone may hold allegiance to their home country is not racist.
Notice how nobody can answer my questions that objectively disprove that Trump is a racist:

Why did so many Hispanics vote for Trump?
He did better with minorities than Mitt Romney, does that mean Mitt Romney is more racist than Donald Trump?
 
"Cuck"
Says it all really.
You should go back to 4chan or wherever this nazi fratboy shit comes from.
It's toxic and stupid and you're making a fool of yourself with all of this carry-on.
 
Why don't you call me racist again?

And why won't you answer the question that completely destroys your false and misleading argument?

You don't need dictionaries for this. Trump fans, if you need a dictionary to support your guy, that's bad. "(No, he said wigger! Not the one with the N! Look at urban dictionary, it's a thing!")

We all know that Trump meant that the guy was brown-skinned. And he revealed he just assumes you're an immigrant if you're brown, and that means you come from either Mexico or the Middle East. And so he figured the immigrant Mexican judge was gonna be bad to him, cause he's tough on immigrants. How the fuck else do you take it? The guy is ignorant as shit, privileged in the original sense, believes all things are either working for him or against him.

Let's put him in charge.

I'm explaining to you the difference between nationality and race. Please do not claim to not understand the difference.

Seriously, tell me. How do you define race?

We talk of a race like it's nationality (e. g. the German race) or a skin color (e.g. a Somalia, a descendent of former slaves from West Africa, and a San living in the US are all "African-Americans", even though they are very distinct on a genetic level). But trying to define it is hard.
 
I dont think Trump is racist. I did think he was but having thought further he is pretty ignorant and cant express himself in public like a leader if a nation should.

Hes also just got his hands on a lot of power so is playing with it like a kid.
 
I'd hate to be guarding this place. Any minute now a truck bomb can pull up and its pretty much lights out

The United States will remain in the Paris climate agreement, officials said Saturday, the European Union’s top energy official told the Wall Street Journal.

“The U.S. has stated that they will not renegotiate the Paris accord, but they will try to review the terms on which they could be engaged under this agreement,” European Commissioner for Climate Action and Energy Miguel Arias Cañete said.

This story is breaking and will be updated.
