“If you’re a white Southerner, you know exactly what it means.”
Former President Bill Clinton on Wednesday said Donald Trump’s campaign slogan, “Make America Great Again,” is a racist dog whistle.
“I’m actually old enough to remember the good old days, and they weren’t all that good in many ways,” Clinton said at a rally in Orlando. “That message where ‘I’ll give you America great again’ is if you’re a white Southerner, you know exactly what it means, don’t you?”
“What it means is ‘I’ll give you an economy you had 50 years ago, and I’ll move you back up on the social totem pole and other people down,’” he said. “What Hillary wants to do is take the totem poll down, and let us all go forward together.”
Clinton, who is a white Southerner himself, made the comments after Hillary Clinton gave a speech last month accusing Trump of bringing racism and fringe conspiracy theories into the mainstream with his 2016 campaign....

Bill and Hill live in Chappaqua, New York
As of the census of 2000, there were 9,468 people, 3,118 households, and 2,687 families residing in the census-designated place. The racial makeup of the CDP was 91.80% White, 0.94% African American, 0.03% Native American, 5.62% Asian, 0.02% Pacific Islander, 0.52% from other races, and 1.07% from two or more races
In other words they live in Caucasian acres.
Make the Clinton Foundation great again!
Any other White Southerners who would care to weigh in on this? Does Bill Clinton speak for all White Southerners? Are all White Southerners who don't agree with this racists in Bill's eyes?
Regards,
Who was Bill’s Mentor again back in Arkansas?
That would be Senator F-U-L-B-R-I-G-H-T. He was as big a Racist as Al Gore’s Father, the Senator from Tenessee.
From the video is a poor choice of words. “What you blow today, you forfeit tomorrow.” Sure Billy. You have the Uncle Ray Clinton kind of Southerner and the Al Capone kind who only vacations at Hot Springs.
Well, I tell ya what, Billy Boy. In many ways in many areas, as you well know - having been 'dead broke' moving out of the White House - the good old days are still here for some. And sanctimonious jerks like you are part of the problem. Get used to saying, President Trump.
What’s really on bubba’s mind:
“Make under 14 legal again”
No it means go back to before Obama messed it up.
Has nothing to do with race.
But of course he, hillary and the dems will yell racism at everything from now until the election day, cause that’s the kind of lousy people they are.
I guess this makes Hillary’s “Make America whole again” a racist dog whistle too.
There’s Trumps reply to this.
Its a dog whistle that can only be heard through the ear speaker that Hillary was cheating with at the forum
Billy also accused Obama of playing the race card against him when he campaigned for Hillary in ‘08.
Surely it was wrong of him to accuse Barack Obama of such a thing...
Selective memory loss but then we are talking about the Clintons...
Wow, he is shameless. They both are But, everyone knows that. Absolutely no shame.
Bill Clinton is a Rat turd who was mentored by a segregationist Democrat and Clinton later explained Sh!t Byrd’s KKK membership by saying that you HAD to join the Klan to get elected in those days.
The bent one knows all about wolf whistles. He says he never went to bed with an ugly woman but he’s woken up with a few...
This ass is truly a numbskull at core. He got where he is because he’s vicious and vile, he has people hurt or killed. There have to be people around even today that carry out his criminal intentions.
He’s full of swampgas.
I’ll take it for granted that Bill Clinton knows all the racist dog-whistles and code-words on the basis of his and Hillary’s vast experience in having employed them.
"And in 1987, while serving as governor of Arkansas, Bill Clinton signed a bill affirming that one of those blue stars is there in honor of the Confederate States of America.”
"Arkansas observes a Confederate Flag Day, which is celebrated together with Arkansas Confederate History and Heritage Month and Confederate Memorial Day.”

I hope it is internals and desperation, and not just Bill's default play of the racism card. He is warped.
