You also don't think A presidential candidate should distance himself from the fucking KKK..
so .. yes... im shaking my fucking head at you.
Listen to him speak about Muslims and Mexicans. Is this a serious question?SnotBubbles;1786815 wrote:Why is Trump a racist?

I'm calling you out for your ridiculous statement you made. There's no way to defend not taking an endorsement from the KKK.. then you went further down the path trying to defend that premise.
Don't believe he is against Mexicans or Muslims just in the county illegally. Imagine that a politician that would want to live by the laws....sleeper;1786821 wrote:Pretty easy to see that Trump is a racist, especially against Mexicans and Muslims. You can be a racist and like black people.
The whole KKK stuff is overblown. Trump even said his ear piece wasn't working in the interview and could barely hear the news person so he didn't hear the words KKK and didn't immediately recognize the name given either.
Anyway, Trump isn't good. He would be a disaster at best.
Trump isn't the only one who talks about immigration reform so there are plenty of other candidates out there that want to stop illegal immigration. Trump's wall is the worst policy I've ever heard, ever. It would be way too costly and ineffective; and no Mexico isn't going to pay for it.rrfan;1786825 wrote:Don't believe he is against Mexicans or Muslims just in the county illegally.

You can talk about immigration reform without denigrating entire races of people. Trump ignores this and instead drums up ignorant trash who think their problems are mexicans and muslims; similar to how a certain German politician blamed the Jews. Trump is the worst candidate in the history of the US; the worst. He would be a complete disaster if he got the White House.
Is that what he really wants, or what he says to stir up the bigots?rrfan;1786825 wrote:Don't believe he is against Mexicans or Muslims just in the county illegally. Imagine that a politician that would want to live by the laws....
Back to my 1 in 8 Americans still have some form of racism; I truly believe that Trump (a brilliant man, mind you) completely knows what he is doing. And you just hit the nail on the head. Not all Trump supporters are bigots, but most bigots are Trump supporters. I really don't believe he is a racist, it's all strategy with the man.queencitybuckeye;1786843 wrote:Is that what he really wants, or what he says to stir up the bigots?
Then you're delusional and hopefully your vote doesn't contribute to having a silver spooned egotistical asshole with no substance hold the highest office in the world.rrfan;1786837 wrote:Disagree I think that worst candidate in history trophy belongs to Obama
Silver spoon??? really that is all you could come up with. At least say Gold you know Trump likes Gold. Silver is for second place like Cruz.sleeper;1786849 wrote:Then you're delusional and hopefully your vote doesn't contribute to having a silver spooned egotistical asshole with no substance hold the highest office in the world.
I believe I do....inherited wealth and social status....Automatik;1786862 wrote:Do you not know what "silver spoon" implies?
It's not just the money. Trump basically took the name his father built and stuck it on every product for money. The Trump brand wasn't built by him but he for sure exploited it for his own gain. Good for him for capitalizing on the opportunity but as far as business goes, he was basically born on 3rd and thinks he hit a triple.rrfan;1786863 wrote:I believe I do....inherited wealth and social status....
And I would say yes Trump did get some money from his father....however he turned it into a ton of money. So what is your point?
Do you have a high school education?rrfan;1786855 wrote:Silver spoon??? really that is all you could come up with. At least say Gold you know Trump likes Gold. Silver is for second place like Cruz.
He got a lot of money and access to a whole lot more. If the same amount was invested in a fund indexed to the stock market, it would have come out about the same. IOW, he is a completely average businessman.rrfan;1786863 wrote:I believe I do....inherited wealth and social status....

Got "some" money from his father. Best description I've heard is that he's Jaden Smith with a comb-over.
What college, what degree?rrfan;1786888 wrote:What makes you think I am uneducated...just so we are clear I am educated HS and College. Thank you.
No, it's pretty accurate. He inherited around $200M from his father in 1982, which if you placed that money in an S&P index fund(the market) he would have roughly $8B. No one really knows Trump's net worth but people estimate it is between $2B-$10B largely because a lot of his money is tied up in small partnerships that make it difficult to evaluate his true worth. Not to mention, he also was appointed by his father to be President of his company, not exactly coming from nowhere without a silver spoon.rrfan;1786890 wrote:This is so inaccurate it is not even funny.
