You can hear the crickets at the WH and on twitter!!!
This is someone Trump praised and said "she is one of us".
Is she "one of you"?

I guess he reads my posts.

Instead of condemning the comments he makes it about him. You still need proof he isn't a racist?

How can you say that?
Don't you know that every white person is a racist until proven otherwise?

So ignoring the over the top racist comment does not say anything about the persons views? How about many other comments he made? Should we ignore them also?

You were talking about this comment which he ignored, not other comments. I wasn't talking about whether he is a racist, but if this tweet shows that. And no, I don't think that ignoring necessarily shows anything unless he indicated that he agreed

You know how many horrible bigoted comments you have yet to condemn. Get working.

So if I say someone is a racist you believe it is based on one item only?

Here is a president that called her to congratulate her on the show. In his rallies he calls her "one of us". Now she makes one of the most racist tweets in history and he says nothing. You believe that says nothing about his views? Would you happen to be in the market for a bridge?

Difference is that Trump made some reference to this comment, so I do think he should have said something to the effect of "I dont agree with the comments made, even if it was meant as a joke." I dont think that not saying this shows that he is racist, just that he is self centered and doesnt like to call out people he views as supporting him. Same reason why he didnt call out the white supremacists, which he should have done.

That's your argument? Show me were I addressed a racist remark without calling out the racism!!!

You are way past a closet Trumpster!!!

See my above post. I dont think it necessarily tells us about his own views although he should have said something once he referenced the comment.

Also, slow down on it being one of the most racist tweets in history. Probably doesnt crack the top 1000 most racist tweets this week. (Not saying it isnt racist but twitter is full of racism and the hyperbole doesnt help anyone)

The problem is he calls out people that disagree with him all the time. He will also praise people that don't support him but agree with him on a certain issue. The common denominator is if you agree with him or not.

If you don't think calling a black women a monkey is one of the most racist tweets then what is?

When you consider his other comments it paints a clear picture.

cant argue with that, he definitely likes to point out when people agree with him and he does not call out people that are supportive of him. Like I said he is quite self centered.

...but he also calls out those he doesn't agree with him that support him. So why didn't he call her out? What would be the logical conclusion to come to?
