just what a racist would do
 
Trump lifts a ban on federal funding for historically black, faith based colleges.

Right out of James Earl Rays playbook, eh?

His mouth and his tweets are routinely obnoxious, offensive, with an Archie Bunker-esque style. When he’s angry, he says and tweets things that are insensitive at the very best, genuinely offensive at worst.

But why would a racist white supremacist, do this?

i’d love to see us somehow get back to the unity we had in the immediate aftermath of the post 9/11 era, where we really felt
like we were one nation under god, regardless of what we each did in the voting booth. Trumps
rhetoric doesn’t move us on that direction for sure.

But his mouth isn’t what we’re about. This is what we’re about.

Could it be he realized his 2020 campaign needs more than just immigration to fall back on, even if the economy holds.

The greatest bolster to his 2020 campaign is simply the opposition.

GS, is this a good thing Trump did? does it help blacks, or hurt them?

So if you do 1 good thing for blacks it makes you not a racist? If you do 1 racist thing, does that make you a racist?

black unemployment at an all
time low, thanks in part to trump

he signed major criminal justice reform which disproportionately benefits blacks.

his tax changes included a 100% increase in the standard deduction, meaning more people pay zero taxes, which disproportionately benefits blacks.

one thing, Paul?

TDS has you, too.

And yet you are on here more than anyone else, constantly arguing with people day in and day out - 7 days a week. Doing all you can to defend Trump (I know you don't like his foul mouth - big deal bc u constantly complain about 1 thing Hillary said). Showing hypocrisy w/all the things you used to whine about w/Obama that Trump has taken to extremes.

Why don't you complain that Trump hasn't released his transcripts (he even threatened to sue any school that does) when you used to whine about Obama not doing that.

And I have TDS - look in the mirror

Maybe he has a guilty conscience.

paul, unlike you, i can criticize Trump when it’s fair to do so, and i praise him when it’s fair to do so. i did the same exact thing with obama. shouldn’t that be the goal?

PaulS 09-12-2019 09:46 AM

But you constantly are on here discussing Trump. More than anyone. So who has TDS?

So if you are a racist and do 1 thing that benefits that group, that makes you not a racist (and vice versa)?

And what exactly did Trump do to help black unemployment? Did he have a hire a black day?

Jim in CT 09-12-2019 10:32 AM

Paul, when i brought up obamas transcripts, it was in response to liberals mocking bush and mccain for their grades.

i agree with you, let’s come
up with a common set of rules for disclosing tax returns and transcripts, and apply them evenly to all candidates.

i never cared about obamas transcripts, i don’t think college GPA says a lot about ones ability to do that job.

i don’t start piss about trump
anywhere near as often as pete, not even close.

who has tds? those who can’t see past their hatred of him, to see the productive things he’s done. that would include you.

trump helped unemployment for
everyone, by stimulating the economy with pro business tax cuts ( possibly too pro business), especially the cutting of corporate tax rates. remember all the companies that said they’d invest in growth? that means jobs. it may surprise you, but some of those jobs will go to blacks.

unemployment is down, wages are up. that is generally considered a good thing, even when you dont happen to like the current president. trump did some bold things, obviously they had an effect.

they also probably added significantly to our debt, and that's the other side that needs to be discussed, as it’s a serious issue.

specific to blacks, meaning something that whites can’t utilize? no, he didn’t. but blacks are disproportionately (if not exclusively) benefitting from some of his programs.

i am sorry if that fact bothers you. but it’s still a fact. and it’s a fact to be proud of, isn’t it?

The fact is that you have frequently touted black unemployment and implied Trump had something to do with it but when pressed to explain what he exactly did to help out blacks can't come up with anything.

Sea Dangles 09-12-2019 01:06 PM

Trumps programs,including tax changes have spurred more employment. This means more opportunities regardless of color. The first step act directly benefits blacks also. Pay attention and become informed. The blinders are making you less so.

he saying that because a white kid could attend that school
and benefit, that this isn’t “for blacks”. these are the best arguments they can come
up with. it’s stunning. unless the law says “no honkeys are allowed
to benefit”, it doesn’t count.

Not true. He cut taxes, and cut the corporate tax rate, incentivizing many companies to grow. After they signed the tax bill, you saw all the companies announcing investments in growth. Subsequent to that, unemployment reached historic lows. Now I can't prove that Trumps economic policies reduced unemployment, but neither can you prove that Obama did anything to help the economy. But common sense tells me, that both helped. Blind partisanship leads you to believe that Obama helped, but not Trump.

You're descending deep into TDS Paul, and you didn't used to be like this.

I asked you about black unemployment bc you constantly bring it up and you couldn't name anything specific to show how Trump has lowered black unemployment.

You are what you hate. You are making things up about what Trump did to lower black unemployment and when called out you bring up general things. He hasn't done anything specifically to lower black unemployment like you repeatedly claim. It is a byproduct of unemployment going down. If he started a massive program specifically targeted to the black community, then you could claim what you repeatedly claim. As far as I know there are no massive initiates/programs that other admins. haven't tried.

"Am I? "

Yes you are.

First you can't remember making an issue of post frequency, now you can't remember dismissing these initiatives that disproportionately benefit blacks, because they aren't, in your words, "specifically" for blacks.

Did you get hit in the head?

"you couldn't name anything specific to show how Trump has lowered black unemployment"

Yes I did. He is lowering unemployment for everyone, and blacks had higher unemployment, so at some point, it has to start benefitting them disproportionately. Paul, perhaps they should have named the tax bill "40 acres and a mule", but that wouldn't satisfy you either, so no big loss.

Jeez. Are you serious? Is this you? This isn't Spence hacking your account?

Paul, Obama lit the economy on fire. Trump dumped rocket fuel in the fire. it helped everyone. there’s still an unacceptable gap between black and white unemployment. but black unemployment is at its lowest ever.

the reason all the democrats at the SOTU say on their hands when this was celebrated, is the same reason you can’t admit what happened. Orange Man Bad.

you may continue your denial-fest undisturbed.
