    I keep hearing the same thing over and over. I have yet to hear him say anything racist ever. But it's the first thing my black students say about him. Yet, none of them can tell me how he's racist. Let's be honest, and factual. Have any of you heard him say anything racist in the past or present? I have not. I think he wants everyone to be successful. I truly believe he just calls a spade a spade. But I have no evidence of racism. So where is the left getting this? do they have audio? video? transcript of racism from him? well let's see it!

    Nice click bait title!! You got me lol. I believe the man encourages hard work and dedication to American ideals. Promoting immigration laws and secure borders is the definition of a civilized nation. I have not seen anything that would suggest he is racist. All smoke and mirrors for the opposition to use for regime change.

    He’s less racist than they are. They use the black population as pawns. That is racist

    I dont think there is a racist bone in his body ... Trump has done more for blacks and other ethnic groups than O'bummer and his sidekick(O'Biden) ever thought of doing or did ... building the Wall has nothing to do with 'racism', it has to do with security and the rule of law, the sovereign right of a country to protect its people and border ......

    for some reason, the left throws the constitution out the window and the fact that the president's job is to uphold the law. of course they want the hispanic vote, so let em all in illegally and then let them vote.... what are the blacks going to do when the dems drop them like hot potatoes when they become the second largest group of minorities and their vote isn't quite as important?

    Congressional Democrats, and I just want to make sure it is known that I do not speak of Democrats in general, do not like the Constitution because it limits their powers and "most" judges are bound by it. That is why, for me anyhow, the battle for the Supreme Court Of The United States is the most important electoral fight there is. They know it and the people know it. Trump got two picks and they are seated on the bench for a few decades, so they want to change the make up of the court to suit their wants and desires, not make it fair and balanced.

    I do not care who makes the SCOTUS nominations, as long as they are bound by the Constitution and uphold it regardless of their positions personally/politically I have no qualms with it. Neither Gorsuch nor Kavanaugh have been the unbendable conservative Justices that they were purported to be by the liberal masses. Rowe Vs. Wade still stands and both have pissed off conservatives and Trump alike.

    I'm fine with that.

    Yet, with the fight for the balance of the court still at hand so is the fight for making Trump the enemy of the people. Therefore he is still racist, xenophobic, tyrannical and any other derogatory term the elite liberal left wish to dub him.

    They ignore their praise and admiration of him in the past because he stands in their way of their ultimate future goal and he does not give a damn what they think or say of him.

    Hell, you're a teacher. With all the derogatory terms being fed to the youth of today about Trump, I'd love for them all to watch a few seasons of All in the Family as homework or "TV day" at school rather than CNN or even FOX News. I think that show could teach today's kids more about bigotry and whatnot than any politician or media outlet ever could.

    the only colors Trump cares about are Red/White/Blue and green.

    ...and blonde. He does like the color blonde.

    You know what is really racist? Holding people to a lower standard because of "structural racism"

    Liberals believe that holding people accountable for entering the country illegally is racist, hence they believe that makes Trump a racist, and because they believe that they can just keep saying every thing he does is racist . Age old liberal tactic, you do not agree with a law or individual call them a racist.

    20 years ago calling someone racist was a relatively large accusation. Today if you say "Chinavirus" you are racist" City Pages in the twin cities MN for the win. For anyone that doesn't know, City Pages is a cross between The Onion, CNN, and the bathroom stall at a dive bar for news reporting.

    Ironically 20 years ago according to many rappers they added into their songs about staying at "Trump Tower" being an elite status symbol.
    Today if you agree with ANYTHING Trump says... you are racist. If you don't believe that, read the comments from the above article.

    I sat spitting my coffee out yesterday morning reading these comments one after another. It has to be a hard life to live to hate Trump so much that all they do is bounce from article to article to find people to argue with. It is honestly sad!

    I'll bite.

    For anyone to claim Trump doesn't have a racist bone in his body, you just decided to dunk your head in the kool-aide instead of just sipping it.

    It's a bit ironic that you all are complaining about people being sad or not having a life when they go on message boards and complain about Trump, when you all are on a bowhunting forum and spend most of your time talking about politics. Sad!

    This is probably going to fall on deaf ears, but how about a timeline of examples of Trump's racist comments or actions?

    1973- Trump was sued by the Nixon administration for violating the Fair Housing Act. Federal officials found evidence that he was purposely not renting to black people or that he lied to them about their application status. After a lengthy court battle Trump finally agreed in 1975 to follow the act.

    1989- Trump took out a whole page advertisement in the NYT and called for the death penalty of 4 black teenagers after they were accused of raping a jogger, however they were eventually acquitted from any wrong doing. Trump later said in 2016 he still thinks they did it, despite being found innocent.

    1991- in Former President of Trump plaza hotel John O’Donnell’s book he said trump was not happy about black people counting his money. He said “Black guy’s counting my money! I hate it. The only kind of people I want counting my money are short guys that wear yarmulkes every day... I think that the guy is lazy. And it’s probably not his fault, because LAZINESS is a trait in blacks. It really is. I believe that. It’s not anything they can control” Trump later confirmed these comments in a 1997 interview with playboy.

    1993- During a congressional testimony, Trump argued that Native American reservations operating casinos shouldn’t be allowed because “they don’t look like Indians to me”

    2011- Trump was a vocal leader on the birther conspiracy against then President Obama. Even after Obama revealed he was born in the United States, Trump still wasn’t convinced. He also made statements saying Obama wasn’t smart enough to get into Harvard Law or Columbia, demanding he release his transcripts. He called Obama a terrible student without even knowing anything about his time in school.

    2015- While campaigning, Trump said he would order a “complete and total shutdown” of Muslims entering the United States. A blatantly bigoted and racist idea.

    2015- Trump tweeting out white-nationalist propaganda https://imgur.com/BTv6xOj.

    2016- Trump suggested the judge who was overseeing his Trump university lawsuit was biased because of his Mexican heritage. Then Speaker Paul Ryan called the statement “the textbook definition of a racist comment”

    Trump tweeted a picture of Hillary Clinton with the caption “Most corrupt Candidate Ever” with a Star of David and a lot of money in the background. Implying she was bought by the Jews.

    2017- During the Charlottesville protests, Trump made a moral equivalency of the neo nazis and racists to the people protesting them. He said there were very fine people on both sides.

    2018- In a bipartisan meeting with Congress, Trump said of people from Haiti and Africa “why are we having all these people from ****hole countries come here?” Suggesting that they aren’t good enough to be Americans

    2019- Trump tweets to 4 Muslim and black congresswomen that they are “from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe” despite the fact that only one of them is actually foreign born. He said they should “go back”


    These are just the highlights (or lowlights). I'm not writing this for you guys that have responded already, because no amount of evidence is going to interrupt the circle-jerk you all love so much. I created this account and commented for the other people not commenting, for them to at least see some parity in this forum's members. We aren't all ignorant cultists.

    This needs to be taught to every child. Under the rouse of eliminating racism the left have actually paved the way to get back to segregation all the while tempering the masses to actually ask for it.

    How about you? Can we check on everything you have ever said and not find one racist or bigoted comment?

    It is interesting that we use the term, "race," in a way that isn't consistent with anthropology. Mexican, Hispanic, Jew, etc. isn't a race. It is a nationality, culture or religious group.
