I primarily take issue with the idea that he's some good middle-ground centrist. If you take a look at all of the candidates from the 2016 primaries, the only one who was a centrist was Clinton.
What Anitram said is pretty spot on. I think you're being dismissive to the idea that people FEEL differently than you. You're speaking in large generalizations because, as you eventually point out, you just don't like him.In what way is that inaccurate? Kasich came off well in those debates because he was much politer than the rest, who tried to play at Trump's level and got smoked. It's certainly not because of his policy positions. He's got one of the worst records on abortion in a party famous for it. Remember when Cleveland police begged him before the RNC to temporarily suspend open carry in the city and he refused to maintain the sparkling NRA A-rating? His economic policies are classic GOP: he's one of their top anti-union operatives, he's one of those obsessed with "balanced" budgets over funding important social programs. And he's a neocon who loved the War in Iraq and thinks drones are swell.
He's "better" than Trump, but I don't think it's at all unreasonable to say he'd be a terrible president who I'd be deeply unhappy with.
i also have a feeling that if you had done this list of names relating to a black person rather than native americans the reaction here would have been a little stronger than one person rolling their eyes and everyone else ignoring it.
Can I ask all of you something. If Trump was more even handed and acted more like a politician would you give him a fair shake? Or would you still be shaking your fists?
I ask because some of the folks I asked about Trump and their response was "We just want him to act more like a president." And then there were some that have said "Nothing he can do will make me change my mind."
by a 51/23 margin Trump voters say that the Bowling Green Massacre shows why Trump's immigration policy is needed
I also pointed out yesterday when he posted this that he claims he doesn't see colour. Alas, he didn't respond.
okay, well sorry i missed that. still pretty disappointed at the reaction overall tho. if i wrote up a list of pejorative nicknames for bernie sanders based on the most offensive jewish stereotypes along with a few holocaust puns (wounded economy? *really?* that was a fucking massacre of civilians by the US army you prick) i would promptly and rightly be called anti semitic and shown the fucking door.I also pointed out yesterday when he posted this that he claims he doesn't see colour.

I agree.
I think racism against first nations has been to a large extent normalized.
I don't even think that the same poster would have posted an equivalent list of pejorative terms against African Americans or Jews, but he still thinks this is funny and I am betting we'll be told we're being PC.
you can seriously go fuck yourself with this unfunny racist bullshit. i don't give a shit about the context, this is just straight deliberate racism. if i was a mod here i'd ban you for this.

The majority of Trump supporters, ignoramuses.

"that has no place here" is the extend of the mod response to some of the obviously racist posts in the history of this message board. wow. weak as fuck.Yeah, I somehow missed that list yesterday on my phone - my apologies.
bloodysunday - I've already had conversations with others about their "haha, being sexist and racist is funny" posts. That stuff has no place here.

Obviously nobody gives a shit about racism against natives. Fine.

I'm telling you KAC never misspoke as she claims, she knew perfectly well that by stating such a lie that there were people who would believe it even after she said she misspoke! They are playing the dumb uneducated people and they sure know how to manipulate them! It's not hard to manipulate someone who probably doesn't even have a high school diploma. It's psychology 101 right there folks.
This poster flat out said, he can understand how Jews would be offended but black people shouldn't.
I must have missed that gem.

I just watched that DeVos video - her face is priceless. This woman has been living a pampered and privileged life, much like Trump, surrounded by plebes who have to bow to her commands. She looked like she was going to lose it (where is that permanently pasted on smile she wore during the confirmation hearings). The real question is how long she's willing to tolerate this.
