    it doesn't offend me. but it would be nice if our president wasn't consistently petty and inappropriate. every time he's doing anything to honor someone or something, he makes it about himself and his petty little wars. expecting a president to act like an adult didn't use to be a point of contention. why do you think it doesn't matter how a president acts or what he says to anyone, ever?

    how else would a guy who was a prosecutor and DA be "weak on crime," and more weak than a child molester? what does that mean to you?

    trump retweeted anti-muslim videos from a well-known racist account. what does that mean to you?

    Lets just ignore the content of the videos...No reason to spend any time on those. The REAL issue is a Trump retweet.

    Crime has no color in my eyes. Unfortunately there are clear statistics where blacks simultaneously commit more crimes as a percentage of their demographic but also get disproportionately worse sentences. Both can be addressed.

    However, being tough on crime is a good thing and does not expressly mean being tough on blacks. But please, continue to fight this identify politics battle. I want you to do it.

    Dear lord.
    let's just ignore the context of who made and sent out the videos, because it would expose racism that i'd rather pretend doesn't exist. do you deny that britain first is outwardly racist?

    i'm not getting into the whole crime and color debate. it's pretty obvious why those statistics may be the way they are. but ignoring context when it benefits you seems to be your forte.

    trump's entire presidency is identity politics. mexicans are rapists. ban muslims from entering. there are some fine nazis marching out there. he wouldn't have been in the race if not for stoking fear in white americans. not racist, but #1 with outward racists.

    No? I didn't say it was. The account, as a whole, is proudly racist. The fact he's reading their feed, retweeting their posts, giving them exposure to millions of people, is far from nothing.

    The environment for that was setup well before Trump ran for office. But lets ignore that factoid and just blame Trump for everything. It lets the left go to sleep easier at night and not face the reality they have as much blame to share in the mess that we are in right now.

    Can you depict specific items where they were racist and not just against the 'Islamification' of Europe?

    More or less because I'm interested and you prompted me to research more than I have which was limited to a Vice video on them.

    perhaps he will find some staffers who can't defend themselves to blame the retweets on. like he did when he blamed his casino bankruptcies on the board members who had died in a helicopter crash. great, quality guy here. great representation.

    Being against Islam (which is a choice) and against a race (which is not a choice) is more than just semantics. So please stop that argument.

    It's a deeply held belief system. I'd think people of many faiths would hesitate at considering that a choice, given that it is typically considered a choice between salvation and damnation.
