Trump won by appealing to the latent racism in people and the fear in whites that they are losing out to blacks in some way.

"always classy"
She called me deplorable and irredeemable, sorry if I don't feel the need to be respectful to Hilary.
As to the racism issue. Can you answer a question? During the latest state of the union, when Trump announced that black unemployment was at historic lows, one side of the aisle erupted in celebration of that fact, the other side sat on their hands, miserable, with scowls on their faces.
Here is the question...why did each side respond the way they did?
"Trump won by appealing to the latent racism in people and the fear in whites that they are losing out to blacks in some way"
And that asinine assumption is based on what, exactly? |

Trump at the state of the union...."something I'm very proud of...African-American unemployment stands at the lowest level ever recorded".
Obviously the man is a white supremacist, I mean obviously... |

Come on, Trump stroking fear with immigrants was a big part of this election and continues to be a big part of his message. |

You mean how Trump is singling out immigrants that are not here legally and have circumvented all legal means of being here? Getting in front of people doing the process correctly? Those immigrants? |

Liberals hate it when people make a distinction between legal and illegal immigration.
Spence, do you teach your kids, that if they are tired of waiting in line for something, they should cut to the front? Or sneak in the back? Or otherwise cheat the people waiting patiently and following the rules? Or am I taking it all out of context? |

And Trump doesn't whine every day in addition to his constant lying and the shady deals he and his family are involved in? How has she put non Americans ahead of Americans? |

Just got my catalogs from Amoskeag Auction for the upcoming firearms auction on June 2. I consigned 37 weapons for two estates I represented. It is an alternative to consider when responsible gunowners are looking to legally procure something to add to their collection.
The legislation being considered by the state regarding forfeiture of firearms if mental health issues are brought to light has some major holes in it, but certainly has questions which I feel should be addressed. But as it is currently proposed it would only take a phone call from an anti gun citizen saying I was acting crazy, for me to forfeit my weapons for a year... And that aint right.

those prices are WAAAAAY outta my league
and about that legislation where you say that ain't right, well no kidding, it's called tyranny and tar and feathers comes to mind. Those lazy legislatures work for all of us, not just snowflakes and feeble people. That kind of dangerous poorly written law is the kind of thing that gets them fired for the same kind of crap Healy pulls. And these judges are just as bad as the politicians. Instead of calling it gun control, call it what it is, civilian disarmament. There's a people problem, not a gun problem.
That guy Swalwell was making a fool of himself on Tucker Carlson show the other day, what a complete hypocrite and extreme leftist he is. Trump was elected because people are fed up with clowns like him and the rest of the ruling class dictating how we should live. F them |
The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Hi Ross,
Doesn't appear to be a lot of flintlocks from the 1700s in there - correct?
My Dad has a bunch he wants to sell. |
