    Did Trump say that Mexican’s were unfit to be judges? No. Did he say anything about Mexicans, generally? No. Is Mexican even a race? No.

    Trump had an issue with one particular judge *who was part of a pro-Mexican society* out of concern that he would be biased against Trump because Trump was going to build a wall. NOT because there’s something innately biased about Mexicans. THAT would be racist.

    You see that distinction? I bet the media types would if they would stop for five seconds and think about it but they constantly try to play pin the tail on the donkey with Trump and race. And they do it for purely partisan motives.

    They are truly despicable.

    It comes down to ID politics or a bustling economy -see which way they break
    The economy isn't going to last. Trump has been lucky so far, but he's hopelessly incompetent.

    I did not know that. fake news reportage is sliced up for soundbytes.

    it sounded like he was a Mexican and could not be fair - no mention of "pro-Mexican society".
    Of course a judge is presumed to be impartial,but it's not out of line for Trump to question it given the society

    Telling ppl to go back to were they came from is legally defined as harassment(Harassment Based on National Origin), so @ the very least he is harassing, nothing to construe, the big mouth is harassing ppl-the same voters you & cowacko are desiring to recruit into your party......... WTF??

    Anyone can see this is working against your party in the short term~as well as the long term... It's probably not going to get any better from here on out, probably worse for your & cowacko's cause......
    Trump can't help himself. He's nothing but a bully, and he's not very bright. Not what his cultists want to hear, but they're lost in their TDS.

    If the wall is really that important, why didn't Trump get his funding when the GOP had control of Congress? Answer: because he couldn't have gotten the funding from a GOP Congress either and it isn't the wall that matters anyway. The only purpose for the wall is its use against Democrats.

    My criticism of Trump in that instance is he should know better than to even go there. As soon as the word ‘Mexican’ came out of his mouth it wouldn’t matter what else he said because the media would frame it as ‘racist’.

    There’s no way he could *not* be aware of it so one has to surmise he just doesn’t care—he’s going to say what he thinks and to Hell with the consequences. On the one hand that kind of candor in a politician is a breath of fresh air and it’s one of the reasons he got elected.

    But it’s also a double-edged sword. It often leads to Trump being his own worst enemy with some of his rhetoric. This instance gets filed under ‘stupid’ unfortunately. He should have kept it to himself.

    double edged sword indeed. But if you don't say things you risk inaction, or pushback as well

    apparently you have not familiarized yourself with current economic indicators
    You are delusional about my signature. Apparently you can't deal with any reality about your cult leader or your cult. I said nothing about "government providers". That, again, is the UK system. And I keep seeing warnings about the economy from right-wing sources.

    I said government providers - as a synonym for Single Pay, and explained SP means the government runs health care, since they are the single provider

    Again, address nothing that has been presented, and just repeat any criticisms of your mindless Kindergarten blather back at your opponent...like a mindless Kindergarten phony. I rest my case.

    Congratulations. You've officially managed to be a shittier debater than katzgar.

    So now it's on to parroting the "shitty debater" observation back at whoever points it out. The irony of having no capacity to do literally anything other than the "I know you are but what am I" defense while calling others "shitty debaters."



    And your pot-kettle talking point here is provably false: Post 169 is where no one but YOU began avoiding the debate with this mindless name-calling. I'll continue waiting for ONLY YOU to stop avoiding the arguments presented by attacking the poster.

    The arguments you are still avoiding (while accusing others of doing what only you are doing):

    -Actual racism looks like pushing reparations, Affirmative Actions, Democrat anti-Semitism, ACORN, imposing racist anti-white discrimination, marching with the Black Panthers, sitting in the pews of a racist lunatic for 20 years, meeting with Louis Farrakhan, protecting Black Panthers from prosecution for armed voter intimidation, appointing radical black nationalist communists like Van Jones, trashing and lying about white police officers based on race alone, etc.

    -Liberals call everything they can't refute racist.

    -President Trump's support goes up because he confronted the Constitution-shredding socialist traitors and extremist nut-jobs of the left.

    This was the last time an actual argument was presented before ONLY YOU veered off to launch diversionary personal attacks. Garbage in, garbage out. Please stop lying about this, if you're even capable at this point.
