Are you going to explain why you tossed the race card, or are you just going to act like a seven year old and go ad hominem, calling me a moron etc?

“Are you going to explain why you tossed the race card, or are you just going to act like a seven year old and go ad hominem, calling me a moron etc?”

You don’t get it. And after I explain it, I suspect you still won’t understand. It’s even in one of my posts, but you clearly don’t have the ability to process more than your own little attacks.

Look, you attacked me first, “libtard troll”. Then, even in your reply this time, you take softer tone, yet you still attack.

In spite of that, here’s my explanation. First, I freely admit I don’t care for Trump. He’s a relentless self promoter, and will be a Democrat, Republican, or whatever it takes to keep himself in the spotlight. So, I find the messenger to be flawed.

Second, Trump made no such comments about Madonna, and her halftime show, while not quite as slutty as Beyonce’s, wasn’t fit for prime time, (in the traditional sense).

Third, Trump is tied tightly to the right. He is a de facto spokesman. While I question his credentials, the Obama media doesn’t, nor does a large part of the public.

We have a black president who, in spite of being lazy, incompetent, and divisive, is hugely popular. Race relations are much worse today, and I think that’s by Obama’s design. Now, Trump, a spokesman for the right, criticizes a popular, celebrity black woman, in a way that’s almost stereotypical. To the Obama media, Trump may as well have called her a ghetto ho.

I did not say Trump played the race card, I said he was close. And to the Obama media, close is good enough. There is very little potential gain in Trump speaking up, and much more potential damage, in the eyes of our stupid public.

In summary, I don’t like Trump, and I don’t think the potential upside of his speaking out, outweighs the potential downside. That’s my opinion, and I can see where others would disagree, that’s what opinions are about. What I don’t see, is why someone would start off with insults, versus discussing the content of my post. But, if it’s insults you prefer, keep flinging them.
