Maxine Waters labels parts of Trump's immigration plan 'very racist'
Washington Examiner ^ | 17-05-19 | Diana Stancy Correll

Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., lambasted President Trump’s immigration plan and labeled portions of it “very racist.” “There should be comprehensive immigration reform and not immigration reform that is based on exciting and inciting those people who have negative thoughts about others coming across our border and basically working to use that information to promote himself in a campaign,” Waters said during an interview with CNN Friday morning. “And I think some of that is very racist. It is not keeping with what this country is supposed to be all about.” President Trump rolled out his new immigration plan on Thursday, and calls for a “merit-based” system and demands future immigrants to learn English already be financially self-sufficient before they come to the U.S. They also would be forced to pass a civics exam.

The article left out what she thinks is racist; speaking English?

mad Max(ine) Waters shouldn’t talk. She won’t even move back into her ( heavily- minority- race) congressional district.

“....“This business about you must speak English, we’re going to give you points for speaking English,” Waters said. “We don’t want poor people, we only want those people who are earning substantial wages already. All of those things are not keeping in step with the way that we treat human beings.”....”

IOWs she wants social dependents who can’t communicate.

Maybe Maxine will feel more comfortable if someone tells her that she won’t be deported for her own demonstrated inability to grasp the concepts present in a high school civics exam.

I personally think it’s racist to contend that immigrants are too stupid to even learn English, much less understand our form of government.

Setting a standard for entry must be racist.

Standards have always been considered racist by those who doubt their ability to meet them.

so "merit" would limit the number of qualifying minorities?

Isn't that assumption racist in and of itself?

Proof that “racist” is losing its cache.
Usually it is doughy old white guys saying “racist”. You know to ingratiate themselves to their base (who are also doughy and white).

Really, when was the last time a black American started the “racist” chant?

I said American so The Just-us Brothers don’t count. Besides they don’t pick it up unless some doughy old white guy says it first.

It’s racist if you are white, and wish to remain the majority in your own country.
