He flipped quicker than a flapjack and hasn't turned back. you got that right. Maybe Trump got a hold of those old FBI files that Hillary peaked at were later found in the WH back in the 1990s. Or maybe, just maybe, his friend Putin provided the dirt on poor old Lindsey. When you think how uncomfortably close Lindsey and John McCain were and how McCain was the anti-Trump one has got to think there is some dirt being held over his head. 2 Link to comment

TGHusker Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 If you are a history buff, like I am, you know that Jon Meacham is no lightweight historian. His comments regarding Trump should be jolting especially in our modern era. https://www.yahoo.com/huffpost/donald-trump-andrew-johnson-racist-090653641.html Quote A Pulitzer Prize-winning historian says President Donald Trump is now tied for number one in a category he may not want to brag about. “He has joined Andrew Johnson as the most racist president in American history,” Jon Meacham said on MSNBC on Monday, referring to the leader who routinely finishes at or near the very bottom of presidential rankings by historians. Meacham said that “Johnson, in a state message, said that African-Americans were incapable of self-government and relapsed into barbarism if they weren’t closely supervised.” Over the weekend, Trump launched a racist tirade against several women of color who serve in Congress, telling them to “go back” to their own countries. Trump later doubled down on those comments. Meacham said that America has never been about the concept of birthright but rather the belief that “all men are created equal,” as stated in the Declaration of Independence. “We didn’t apply it that fully then, we haven’t applied it fully now,” he said. “But that journey toward a more perfect union is the story of the country.” Instead, Trump has stoked racism with both his recent comments as well as his “birther” lies about former President Barack Obama, Meacham said. 1 Link to comment
Guy Chamberlin Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 12 hours ago, Landlord said: Ding ding ding. You could make an argument it isn't racist if Trump ever encouraged Clinton, Sanders, Biden, etc. to go back where they came from. If your xenophobia only applies to countries that brown/black people come from, it's not xenophobia, it's racism (or it's both i guess?). Has Trump ever showed xenophobia to white dominant countries? At most he criticizes any country that criticizes him, so yeah, he's taken the occasional potshot at England or socialist Scandinavia. He will also hail any North Korean, Filipino, or Brazilian who flatters him. He probably wouldn't tell Kanye or Allen West to go back to Africa. The "America First" doctrine disparages anyone who thinks they can tell the U.S. what to do, and that includes white globalists. So xenophobia is the larger category. But basically he sticks to disparaging the s#!thole countries with dark-skinned people. Because he's a racist. Still, the reason we're here is because the four female representatives in question have self-identified as outsiders in their own party, and Nancy Pelosi had just singled them out for public reprimand. A smarter Donald Trump would have shut up and let that play out. Link to comment
