sh*thole countries

[PaulS]

I saw a poll that says 32% of Americans approve of Trumps handling of race relationships. Isn't that about his favorability rating? I would guess it's all Republicans right?

You're probably right. That's why the liberals conspire with the media to demonize everyone who disagrees with them about anything. Because it works.

Black unemployment has never been as low as it is now. If Obama were still POTUS, they'd give him another Nobel Peace Prize for that. With Trump, the media won't discuss it. So they focus on something vulgar he might have said about Haiti, wherein he implied that it's a horribly run country. Imagine thinking that?

Damn that media for making conservatives looks racist when they point out thier racist comments.

And it's not that he "might" of said what he said, it is that he actually said it . You had two senators who confirmed it and two Republican Senators who now have lied about what he said. So let's not say he might have said it when the facts all point to him actually saying it. And frankly I don't think he cares because if he did care he would be tweeting more about it in denying it. He's not doing that because he's blowing his little dog whistle.

I have no problem with calling out true racists. My issue is, liberals don't stop there. Obama said McCain was a racist. Hilary said half the American people are racist. Everyone to the right of Bernie Sanders is somehow a racist.

I have zero issue with accurate criticism. Stop pretending otherwise. I started this thread, and I was attacking Trump. I don't believe it's racist to say that Haiti is a sh*thole (especially when the person who said it has given large amounts of money to help Haiti),. I also don't think it's necessarily racist to say we need more immigrants who are (1) self sufficient, and (2) more likely to be able to assimilate into our culture. There's logic there. And it will always be painted as racist by your side. Always.

Show me proof that he said it, and I will never respect Tom Cotton again. Fair enough?

Black unemployment is low because unemployment in general is low.

And if the media portrayed him honestly, the number would be higher. How many people know that he helped fund medical missions to Haiti? How many people know that black unemployment is at record lows, and Trump is happy about that?

I concede he's not a good man. But he's not remotely what CNN wants him to be. He trounced them at their own game (by virtue of winning when they all said he was going to get clobbered, hell they convinced me) and they hate him for it. He pulled back the curtain and for a moment, showed us how dishonest and contemptible they are.
