For some people it’s really hard to understand, those of us that were born in the 30’s and 40’s understand it all to well....

It doesn't mean he dislikes Mexicans - it means he dislikes illegals.

Is that really so hard to understand?


Not at all; I agree.

But why the ping?

Yes. The "politically correct" lie is that to be clearly in favor of your own people; your own heritage; your own traditions; that you must therefore hate others. That is a deliberate non-sequitur, promoted by those internationalists who seek to undermine the very concept of a nation. We are not the haters--we normal people, with normal identifications and cultural preferences and values. The haters are those who seek homogenize the peoples of the earth, whether in pursuit of humanist theories or economic special interests.

Ultimately, the continuation of a recognizable America is the issue; and it is one on which we dare not fail.

Nothing in that means that we cannot congratulate our neighbors on their special days. Trump has the good sense not to play into the hands of the propagandists for "new world orders."

You obviously do not recognize it, when Leftist theorists are playing you. You are flirting with the obvious "cliches" of the "politically correct."

Also, I think your snobbery may be showing. A maid who does a good job is a credit to whatever class with which she identifies. In a healthy society, all honest work is appreciated and honored. It is not being "patronizing," in the negative sense, to be appreciative.

Not for me it’s not. I’m sure the la raza understands it too. They are yelling “hate” just to win the propaganda war.

His statement was certainly reminiscent of "I don't hate blacks. Some of my best friends are black".

Disagree. More like, "I am ending all affirmative action programs in the federal government. All people should compete as equals and not be judged by the color of their skin. I don't hate blacks, some of my best friends are black." Context is everything.

Millions of normal Americans are thinking, "I like taco salads, too. It's not racist."

Let’s hope his next tweet isn’t a picture of him eating fried chicken saying he loves blacks.


Back when Shoal Creek was first hosting the PGA championship it came out that they didn’t have any black members. Sponsors were going to boycott. Protests in the streets. Etc.

So they decided they needed a Black member. But who? They decided on an old black gentleman named Joe Willie. Owned an Insurance company in B’ham. So they trotted ‘ole Joe Willie out and had a big dog and pony show. Even showed Joe out on the course. It was apparent he had never held a club. Didn’t even look like he knew which end to hold. But everything was alright with the world and the PGA tourney went off at Shoal Creek!

Before the tournament an entrepreneur decided to capitalize on the publicity. He had Tee shirts made up. On the front of the shirts was a picture of Buck Wheat. And surrounding his picture was the words: Joe Willie say’s “Shoal Creek is O’Tay!”

I still have that shirt around somewhere....

“You are flirting with the obvious “cliches” of the “politically correct.” “

No, I’m not. I have more Mexican-American neighbors than whites, and I know darn well how THEY will view Trump’s Tweet. Maybe Trumpsters think they can win without getting anything but the angry white vote, but I hate to concede my neighbors to Hillary & the Demoncrats!

I don’t like Trump, but I want him to win against Hillary. It would help a lot if he could stop being ridiculous on Twitter.

“A maid who does a good job is a credit to whatever class with which she identifies.”

My wife spent several years working as a maid. But she didn’t want to remain a maid forever, and most maids don’t want it as a ‘forever’ job. Hard work and the pay sucks.
