Does Pinocchio have wooden balls?
As we know, Trump supporters are always trying to say DJT is NOT a racist. I know, laughable. But when you try to appoint people that are blatantly RACIST your true colors show;
The Fox News host who President-elect Donald Trump just announced would be his nominee for secretary of defense was not allowed to work security at President Joe Biden’s 2021 inauguration, supposedly because of a tattoo that military higher-ups believed might have been an extremist symbol.
According to Pete Hegseth, the “Fox & Friends Weekend” host and potential future defense secretary, the tattoo was a large Jerusalem cross on his chest. The Jerusalem cross originated with the Christian Crusades nearly a millennium ago. These days, it can be a simple marker of Christian beliefs ? or, in some settings, a symbol for the conquest and domination of Muslims or non-white minorities.
If it walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it’s a racist.
Before the election and after the election I have told several people that even if Trump’s economic policies were solid, I still couldn’t support him because of his racism. I really believe that RACISM is true evil and it will ultimately destroy this country.
“…..that even if Trump’s economic policies were solid…”
What? You lost me there. Trump’s first term was Obama’s economy. Trump’s economy was Biden’s term, which, for some reason, Biden and Harris got blamed for. Although, Biden did eventually get rid of inflation (like Reagan) and unemployment is way down again, and the stock market is rising again, but it should only take about 18 months for Trump to screw these realities up the way Bush43 ruined Clinton’s balanced budgets.
As far as racism, yes, Trump is definitely a racist, IMO. When he complained back in 2016 that a federal judge of Hispanic heritage would rule against him because of the judges ethnicity and Trump’s position on a wall, well, that pretty much cemented the question as to whether Trump was a racist. AND, there are far more examples, but too numerous to name right now…. Let’s also not forget that Trump used to be on the Letterman Show quite frequently back in the 2000s and early teens, but when Trump started his own Birther movement, Letterman called him a racist, and then Trump boycotted his show, but eventually, they made up. I always felt that boycott was the actions of a self-perceived strongman with racist tendencies. Trump hates being called a racist, but his duckling ways speak for themselves….
I also remember when Trump was first elected president in 2016, that a commentator on one of the cable news channels theorized that Obama was Reconstruction, while Trump was a return to Jim Crow, and in hindsight I’m afraid he was right. AND, keep in mind, that Jim Crow lasted a lot longer than Reconstruction, and what Trump has done to race relations in this country will far outlast his political relevance and continue to do much damage to this country, I’m afraid…. Or, as on comedian on SNL said right after Trump was first elected in 2016: “He(Trump) has empowered the lower case “kkk” in many in our country, unfortunately”…..

Fred Trump (Donald’s Dad) was once Woody Guthrie’s landlord:

the muslims who voted for him are going to be in for a big surprise.
Muslims? What about the Mexicans?
AND, if there was a major uptick in support for Trump by Hispanics, then why isn’t Trump questioning the outcome of the election, especially when he and his comrades, in the run-up to the election, warned us about “illegals” voting in this election?
I don’t think that Pinocchio had anything down there, that’s why he tried to overcompensate with his nose. You know, it’s like parking a big truck on Phillips avenue in downtown SF so you can go to Minerva’s.
Come on, why are democrats so bnound to calling people names and insults. So when you call Trump (or anyone) a racist, what you are really saying, is you are the racist one, cause you only see black and white and yellow. No, Trump is not a racist, this is a Democrat cop out for their failure of helping black people succeed. If Trump is racist, then its quite funny that 50% of all Black men and women voted for him, and nearly all legal Hispanics voted for him. Calling people racist is just the means of dividing people on the account of white, back, yellow, blue. This is one of the very reasons the Democrat party lost and why it has no voice in the majority of states today. The day you all learn your lesson, and learn how to best represent the states, will be the day you get elected again. The Republican party, led by Trump, now is the party for the people, and that will keep the democrats down for years.
“Come on, why are democrats so bnound to calling people names and insults.”
What? Trump does this all of the time and always has.
“So when you call Trump (or anyone) a racist, what you are really saying, is you are the racist one, cause you only see black and white and yellow.”
MLK wanted us to be color blind, but he never suggested it could be fiated over night nor could it be realistically.
“No, Trump is not a racist….”
Yes, he is.
“….then it’s quite funny that 50% of all Black men and women voted for him, and nearly all legal Hispanics voted for him…..”
Not true again. Try 20% and”nearly all” is not a correct caricature. Plus, why are Hispanics “legal” if they vote for Trump and Trump wins, but if he had lost, then the Trump crowd would have yelled election fraud and blamed some of it on “illegal immigrant” votes?
“Calling people racist is just the means of dividing people on the account of white, back, yellow, blue”
No, it’s just a means of recognizing that some discriminate based on race.
“This is one of the very reasons the Democrat party lost and why it has no voice in the majority of states today”
Democrats lost not because of their message, but because they don’t even know how to message anymore. AND, your “majority of states” comment is heavily dependent upon collecting a bunch of very low-populated states to get your “majority.”
“The day you all learn your lesson, and learn how to best represent the states, will be the day you get elected again…”
Yah, that’s what a bunch of Confederates once thought, too, but they lost the war and were racists.
“The Republican party, led by Trump, now is the party for the people, and that will keep the democrats down for years.”
What? Trump is the most self-surviving politician I have ever seen. The only thing he accomplished in his first term was to give the rich another tax cut they didn’t need. In fact, nothing illustrates Trump’s self-serving qualities more than the fact that he keeps nominating House members to serve in his Cabinet, which will make it even more difficult for his fellow Republicans to hold onto their House majority.
Trump is a racist and the Pope is Catholic.

First of all, I am glad you agree, the Democrats were the racist party during the Civil War. And they still are today. They do nothing for African American Blacks, and that is why they voted Trump today. He propvides jobs.
And, if you are paying Federal Income Tax,m you are kind of goofy, not real smart, cause I have not paid Income Tax in more than 10 years, cause I learned the tax code, and educated myself on how to avoid it. Trump is Good.
Mike,
It’s interesting how over time things change, isn’t it? Like you suggesting that the Dems are no longer the party of the people or the working class, which I guess is like the Dems being the pro-slave party of the 19th century and the GOP being the racist party of the 21st century, right?
Oh, but if we all did what you do, or what Trump does, with our tax situations, then how are we going to adequately fund securing the border going forward?
( and Woodstock adds: “Personally, I miss the good old days like when Republican Lincoln was against racism and slavery, when Republican Teddy Roosevelt was for a progressive income tax, and when Republican Reagan warned us about the Russian bear, because whatever happened to those Republicans?”….. )
( …. Note to self – When Trump takes over Justice and the IRS, make sure to have them check out Mike’s taxes …. )
sovereign citizens don’t have to pay taxes do they?
