Scarborough: Trump supporters are racist

a reply to: Phage

My Grandad used to sit at his window pretending to shoot all brown people. The police came around a few times saying he scares children lol.
Different generation I suppose I'm glad things are improving well they are over here.

I know and have known racists by their words.

My grandmother was a racist. No doubt about it. Upon seeing our Japanese neighbors water skiing, she said "They shouldn't be allowed to do that." This is in Hawaii.

Bless her soul.

Ok we are in 2018... Did your Grandmother live through WWII by chance...lol

Lots hated Germans and Japanese.

Maybe you haven't, most people I know judge people on their character not the colour of their skin.

Is racism a white thing?
Or can anybody be racist?
This is getting confusing.

It depends upon what your definition of racism is. In mine, anyone can be a racist.


And for the record, I hold Scarborough in the same regard I hold Hannity.

Low. Very, very low.

They just want to find low hanging fruits to push their narratives like this thread.

Narrative? This is what is actually happening. The media is trying to pushing the idea that if you support trump, you are some kind of sub-human, for some end.

How many people, other than this guy, are pushing that narrative? And ask yourself this question: Why are certain people in the MSM pushing that idea?

Hillary Clinton pushed it with the deplorables act. Saying that the alt right are haters and racists.
But what you mentioned is the more important question. I DO think that stories are picked that enflame tempers and pit people againsts each other. I just dont know who exactly benefits.

Yes. Obviously.
Hawaii. Obviously.

The nation of Japan attacked the US so all Japanese are evil, including American citizens. Obviously.
Because they are Japanese. Obviously. And that's what makes it easy. It's those slanty eyes. And they eat rice.

And Chinese and Vietnamese and so on and on.

I never understood the whole "Trump supporters are racist" seems they could have said that during Obama's time, but Trump beat out a white woman...seems it should be "Trump supporters are sexist".

Not sure about the Chinese, but I don't think so...Find me one Vietnam vet today that says anything bad about the Vietnamese.. Germany and especially Japan were down right evil during WWII.

I think it has more to do with those who support Trump's statements and policies which can be taken as racist.

Of course, it's easy to mistake "me first" for that when "me" is white.


I don't think all Trump supporters are racist but I have no doubt that some are. And he doesn't seem to do much to discourage that impression.

I agree with you but I gotta say one thing...

Saying that the alt right are haters and racists.

The Alt-Right group IS full of haters and racists. Richard Spencer, a white supremacist, coined that term.

Chinks, gooks, krauts and Japs ring any bell? I'm sure the vets today went past that.

Is it racist to dislike the French?.

a reply to: testingtesting

Not if they live in Paris.
But then, there are a number of "races" who live in Paris.

Is calling them cowards for waving the white flag racist?

Are you white or polynesian?

White. After 5 generations in the islands.

I have no idea how that is possible.

Well the left got to use something... Trying to keep the brown people out of the country... Don't want immigrants because they are not white etc... Funny how when you actually look at it we are almost at the highest percentage of immigrants in our population since the max in 1890s. Also we have the most ever (45 mil) and the vast majority are not white, vast.

But hey, stopping illegals is racist.

No.

I just remembered now... one of the reasons why American soldiers called their enemies names is to make them appear less human and easier to kill because it's hard to get past the emotion of killing people.

No.

But the limits and conditions that the administration wants to impose on legal immigration seem to have a certain...bent.

As do the restrictions on "acceptable" asylum applications.

They do, at least, allow that appearance.
