A couple thoughts:
Over 50% of WHITE women who voted at all, voted for him. And if they are not actively racist and sexist then they looked at his platform thought “well, as long as I get mine” and became complicit. They might not be actively “racist white supremacists” but they sure support those who are.
Okay, so tell me, why isn’t Trump, Rudy Giuliani and the rest of the GOP condemning these acts of racism and threats of violence we’ve seen this past week like they’ve demanded from moderate Muslims against radical Islam? It’s a two way street yes? And certainly since Donald Trump tweeted citizens should rebel against…
You know...if he denounced the harassment incidents, then maybe I’d have a little smidgen of respect and not feel like he’s going to gas half the country.
52% of white Trump supporters said blacks were “less evolved” than whites in a nationally representative survey. 38% of the total white sample agreed. Those numbers were backed up by a second survey.
Obama was not a racist and proto-fascist.
Being biased against racism is not bad. Your entire comment rests on the premise that all bias is equally bad. That’s illogical in the extreme.
No fucking one needs to “just imagine.”
Hmmm. Instead they reveled in eight years of contemptuous whispers, racist jokes, memes, the most blatant disrespect and incivility like the cowards they are.
This is what the resistance feels like. Get used to it.
I will treat trump with the same respect he has shown women, POC, Mexicans and Muslims.
Because he didn’t threaten their rights and physical safety, DUH. The tea party protested in my area. They just didn’t make the news because there were 5 of them.
They weren’t protesting the election!? People still believe he is not a US citizen. And I would say that people aren’t protesting the election results or Trump’s eligibility to be president but rather his awful policies. Large difference and people have every right to assemble and protest.
He’s already showing the kind of man and leader he is by not speaking out against the violence and thuggery being perpetrated in his name.
That depends on if you think the outdated electoral college system still constitutes fairness.
Why in the hell should we give Trump a blank slate just because he was elected fairly? That’s not a statement you backed up in any way. Why shouldn’t we trust that he’ll do or at least attempt to do the things he has promised to do?
Three thoughts that may work like a little sampler platter of ideas to consider when dismissing the current protests as too violent or biased.
When first elected and then reelected, Obama was burned and hung in effigy, told to go back to Kenya etc etc and he wasn’t even enabling hateful behavior.
There were vocal…
If their values are centered on racism, white supremacy, bigotry, and homophobia I couldn’t care less how undervalued they feel. I’m not going to try to empathize with my oppressors and it’s disgusting for people to be suggesting this is what I need to do.
I’ll treat President Trump with the same respect the Republicans treated President Obama and their willingness to unify. How’s that for fair?
