How we'll recover from Trump
The Bristol Herald Courier ^ | July 11, 2018 | Jennifer Rubin, The Washington Post

Posted on 07/11/2018 9:08:15 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

President Donald Trump, more than any modern president, freely expresses his racist views — whether it is calling Mexican immigrants rapists, asserting that immigrants “infest” America, saying neo-Nazis include some “very fine people,” preferring Norwegian immigrants to those from “sh--hole” countries or associating immigrants with crime in public and in private.

(In May, The Post reported on an episode in April 2017: “Trump reminded them the crowds loved his rhetoric on immigrants along the campaign trail. Acting as if he were at a rally, he recited a few made-up Hispanic names and described potential crimes they could have committed, such as rape or murder. Then, he said, the crowds would roar when the criminals were thrown out of the country — as they did when he highlighted crimes by illegal immigrants at his rallies. …”) Add in his ongoing feud with African-American football players who kneel for the national anthem to protest police brutality (“Get that son of a b---- off the field right now”) and his attack on African-American Rep. Maxine Waters’ intelligence, and you see a president who is either catering to racists or himself harbors racist views.

Voters have noticed. The Quinnipiac poll released this week shows a plurality (49 percent) think he is a racist while 47 percent do not. Among the 47 percent are 86 percent of Republicans, roughly the same percentage that support him. (They simply will not believe the president they voted for is a racist.) More young voters (18-34 years) think he is a racist (56 percent) than do older voters. Perhaps there is something to the polling on millennials that says they are more tolerant and inclusive than older Americans....

...prefer to live or vacation? Norway or Somalia, El Salvador or Haiti?


Hmm, I don’t know. I’ve heard that Norway is outrageously expensive, whilst Haiti has beautiful beaches, except for the riots and burning tires, of course.

The question the survey did not ask: Do you care anymore about accusations of racism?

Jennifer Rubin, the Washington Post's version of a "conservative".

Liberal as hale and ugly to beat.

Those Botoxed lips of hers have been kissing the collective asses of the democRATS for years.

Communist Big Media loves to start articles with a huge lie.

They learned the trick from "Pravda" ...

From the article:

"....In the most blunt phrasing possible, virtually half of Americans call him a “racist,” close to the worst thing you can call someone in public life....."

The Left uses the race or racist card at almost every turn. According to people like Jennifer Rubin, everyone is racist who supports Trump because he is a racist.

And that as soon as they discover Trump is a racist, they will flee him and support Hillary instead.

Problem is, that when you call everyone a racist, it loses its impact. Like the boy crying wolf one too many times, now no one believes it.

Resorting to calling you a racist is like a white flag of surrender for the democRATS. It means they have lost their argument.

Accusing someone of being racist is not what it used to mean.

Beautiful Norwegian women should be welcomed as immigrants.

You forgot Czech, Polish, Hungarian, Russian, Croatian, and Serbian women.

All under 30 and unmarried, of course.
