You're not getting this. President Trump did not say anything about race, did he? It's you who mention race. Always. President Trump and most Americans make a distinction between American citizens and foreign nationals trying to enter this country unvetted and illegally regardless of their race. There's a process people who obey the law go through and it doesn't involve paying drug gangs to help you jump to the front of the line. Instead of using your clearly inadequate powers of ESP to devine what President Trump is thinking, just read what he actually thinks about race.
"We must love each other, show affection for each other, and unite together in condemnation of hatred, bigotry, and violence. We must discover the bonds of love and loyalty that bring us together as Americans.Racism is evil, and those who cause violence in its name are criminals and thugs, including the KKK, neo-Nazis, white supremacists, and other hate groups that are repugnant to everything we hold dear as Americans. We are a nation founded on the truth that all of us are created equal. We are equal in the eyes of our creator, we are equal under the law, and we are equal under our constitution. Those who spread violence in the name of bigotry strike at the very core of America."
And you think he is Hitler incarnate? You and Mark have lost all sense of reality. This is about enough for me. You'll never convince me that I and 67 million of my fellow Americans are racists who want to exterminate Mexicans, because I know for a fact that is a smear and lie. I'll never convince you that you are actually having mental health issues because people with mental health issues often don't realize they have a problem.
But you and Mark just continue to enjoy your little circle jerk. I'm sure you've both got plenty of other topless Trump pictures in your collections to keep you busy.
I evaluate Trump, as I do all persons, by his actions as well as his words. At that hate rally, he didn't have to acknowledge and laugh at that crude racist joke. In fact, an honorable man would have ignored it, or even adminished his supporters the way John McCain did when one of his supporters pitched an insult at Obama. But Trump has no honor.
I also evaluate Trump by the legislation and rules that he's pushed, from the imprisonment of entire families seeking asylum, to slashing immigration quotas, to ending DACA.
Trump's message has been clear since that early day on the campaign trail when he pulled that remark about criminals and rapists out of his ass. He was probably surprised when people like you cheered and cheered and cheered. Since then, he knows that all he has to do to get his base fired up is talk about persecuting/deporting/jailing/killing Mexicans.
It is indeed a sad fact that 67 million Americans are racist Nazi assholes who voted for Trump and want to see all nonwhites wiped off the face of the earth. You're one of them. Wear that badge proudly, Charles--don't deny it!
