What Did President Trump Do Now?

Is Donald Trump a Racist? Here's What His Record Shows | Fortune.com

Quote:

In 1989, he told Bryant Gumbel in an interview, “A well-educated black has a tremendous advantage over a well-educated white in terms of the job market...if I was starting off today, I would love to be a well-educated black, because I really do believe they have the actual advantage today. “ In fact, all the serious studies refuted that. However his statement did serve as a kind of shout-out to those who were ignorant about the racial dynamics in the U.S. economy.

Quote:

Next in the Trump record on race came a 1991 book by John O’Donnell, who had been president of Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City. O’Donnell quoted Trump saying,“ Black guys counting my money! I hate it. The only kind of people I want counting my money are short guys wearing yarmulkes… Those are the only kind of people I want counting my money. Nobody else…Besides that, I tell you something else. I think that’s guy’s lazy. And it’s probably not his fault because laziness is a trait in blacks.”

Again, don't be obtuse.

I'm shocked that you're still willing to defend Trump as not being a racist, when if you were to ask anyone with a brain, they'd say otherwise. The proof is pretty clear, but for whatever reason, you choose to ignore it.

Also, quoting HuffPost is a bad move since apparently they're extremely biased.

The Huffington Post is an extremely liberal outlet. I was making a point by posting an article where even numbnuts like them understand the difference that I'm discussing. You guys aren't using the term "racist" properly but chose to ignore my core argument.

Well, I think I've beat this dead horse enough. Nobody acknowledged the argument being made (too "obtuse" lol), so let's talk about Flynn I guess.

The point was evidently lost due to your constant defense of Trump's supposed lack of racism. It's pretty clear that you won't agree that he is a racist, when 99% of the people in this country will disagree with you. It's not hard to understand.

I never said he wasn't racist. He has a lot of subtle prejudices and it shows in the way he speaks. I said racism wasn't his core message or a driving force behind why he does what he does, and I've already proven that point in previous illustrations.

Trying to equate the Huff Post with Breitbart? Again, check your sleeve dude.

Making up news. Biased news.

One of these things is not like the other.

I would say hardly subtle. I never said racism was his driving force either. But it certainly helped along with his driving force of fear mongering to the people less fortunate to know better. His racism was just a cherry on top of the cake that had been made by his hatred and bigotry throughout his campaign.

They're both disingenuous opinion oriented outlets with laughable agendas and ranking up there in Google search with all the biggest mainstream outlets. They're the funhouse mirror counterparts to CNN and Fox.
