If you look at his wife, she was standing there. She had nothing to say. She probably, maybe she wasn’t allowed to have anything to say. You tell me.
A "low point in his campaign"? Give me a break, I wouldn't even call that racist to begin with. I don't disagree that he's racist, but the media has been blowing stupid **** so far out of proportion this election and you can't just mindlessly bob your head along to EVERY accusation of racism. Plus this one is obvious that he's just hitting back and that it's not based on race. I wish people would at least attempt to discern fact from overhyped half-truths.

Not surprising considering what's at stake this election. However, blaming the media for shining light on blatant racism isn't the medias fault. It's like saying it's the medias fault for shining the light on cops who kill black people for no reason.

I'm blaming the media for taking tiny, insignificant statements and holding them up as mountains of evil when they have more than enough mud to sling at Trump without having to resort to sensationalism.

Ah, that I agree with. Fair enough.

lol this totally proves my point. The only outright racist example is refusing to rent to black people, and that was long before he ran for president. Is he racist? Probably. But the media has fornicated and blown so much of what he says out of proportion that people are saying he is without any actual proof.

Frownland 10-11-2016 10:50 AM

Fornicated? Nice.

True. However, he has said racist comments throughout his campaign. If you think he hasn't, you haven't been paying attention.

This proves your point that he's racist. Gotcha.

Also that article was back in February. He has said more **** since then.


He encouraged the mob justice that resulted in the wrongful imprisonment of the Central Park Five
Quote:

In 1989, Trump took out full-page ads in four New York City-area newspapers calling for the return of the death penalty in New York and the expansion of police authority in response to the infamous case of a woman who was beaten and raped while jogging in Manhattan’s Central Park.

“They should be forced to suffer and, when they kill, they should be executed for their crimes,” Trump wrote, referring to the Central Park attackers and other violent criminals. “I want to hate these murderers and I always will.”

The public outrage over the Central Park jogger rape, at a time when the city was struggling with high crime, led to the wrongful conviction of five teenagers of color known as the Central Park Five.

The men’s convictions were overturned in 2002, after they’d already spent years in prison, when DNA evidence showed they did not commit the crime. Today, their case is considered a cautionary tale about a politicized criminal justice process.

Trump, however, still thinks the men are guilty.
Re-read that alone. He still feels that way to this day like what the ****. Did you actually read the article?

How about more examples apart from the hit and miss list you presented earlier? The way that you're talking about this subject recently really sounds like your hate boner for Trump has pushed you into owning the canon of him being racist/evil/horrible on all fronts, despite logic, context, or evidence to the contrary.
