Trump’s Dividing of America

Trump may well be a racist. More troubling, however, is the fact that playing to racial animus is so successful. The Southern strategy has been the Republican Party’s pathway to the presidency since Nixon. Trump is just its most blatant practitioner. Demographics has narrowed the pathway and will eventually close the door, though probably not until 2024 or 2028, so plenty of time for Trump to be reelected.

Not before they install a judiciary that can keep the minority into power. We’re quickly becoming almost an apartheid state; where non-college educated white evangelicals in rural America rule/have the most political power while those on the coast and living In major cities don’t. One vote in Wyoming already counts as much as 6.3 votes in California. Give Mitch, Donald, and Kavanaugh another few years and they’ll find ways to keep the GOP in power for decades. Hell, they’ve already been consolidating power since Clinton.

The senate is a major problem that I’m unsure how to solve.

Start worrying about the house as well. Your fabulous 4 fighting with Pelosi are turning off a lot of voter, as well as the democratic party leaning hard left towards socialism.
 
What they were elected to do is fix the immigration problem, health care and the infrastructure. What have they accomplished...nothing but starting a 5th investigation of Trump. The silent majority is watching and waiting to vote.
You’re very pathetic. People like yourself are exactly why history is scattered with terrible people carrying out terrible acts. You close you’re eyes and pretend that disgusting things being said/done aren’t happening well because you’ve been fear mongered into believe polarized politics and buying into one political party/person as God and won’t just call out the nasty or bad things they say or do. Quite honestly if you can’t just admit this is terrible stuff you’re a POS. I lean left on some issues but am very much center on most things. Trumps a POS and some of you need to open those eyes and just admit it. Unfortunately this is who we are to an extent, and we should strive to get better as a country.

I bet when you see homeless people downtown you spit on them and kick them. Of course, you don't want them to get a job so you have an excuse to vent your hostility on people who are unfortunate and in the lower echeleon of society. Makes you feel good about yourself. Go ahead keep kicking. I'm sure it makes you feel good.

The racism and disgusting behavior of the President is a bit more off-putting to me as a voter who isn’t beholden to either party. I think the fact comments like those from today are tried to be smoothed over rather than called out is terribly gross. Stop making f***** excuses for terrible behavior.

Trump and his minions always have a bogus excuse for his failures. Classic persecution complex. Poor little snowflakes.
 
A raging socialist movement? No we are witnessing a raging authoritarian ruler who cares for no one or nothing but the bottom line. A pig who will bleep anything in a skirt so long as they have reached the age of puberty, who has no compunction about cheating on his wife or violating women without their consent, who takes babies from their mothers, and wants to start a war with countries who don't agree with his economic views. Raging socialism, when where? Well, let's just abolish the public schools, the fire department, the police departments, the public utilities, social services of any kind, and take away healthcare from poor people. Let's just privatize everything and put the banks in charge. You're so bleepin ignorant. You're everything that is wrong with this country. You're probably one of those persons who will get a gun and shoot anyone who disagrees with you, especially if they're black or from another country, who would put a woman in prison if she got an abortion. I'm sure you're cheering about the protester who the police killed outside the detention center in Tacoma. Guess you're excited because Trump wants to sell off the land in our National Parks and wants to frack and put oil pipelines through areas where the largest reservoir in the world of pure spring water resides. Of course, you believe Global Warming is a money-making hoax. Right, just like Herr DDT?

Don't feed the troll.
 
Amazing. See what I mean? I mentioned this in another thread but so many Utahns are naive. Zach Wilson is from Draper. Went to corner canyon high school, one of the nicest and (whitest) schools in the state. Could be racist? Probably not. But damn, naive. I wonder how his black and Hispanic teammates feel? “Because he he funny.” Great. That’s exactly what we should be looking for in a president.

Corner canyon’s student body is 85 percent white. It’s easier to be ignorant of Trump’s dividing of America when you aren’t exposed to the racial fault lines or aren’t studying them that Trump is exploiting.

Ya the question was asked to a handful of the football team. A few said teddy Roosevelt, a few said Obama, there was a couple George Washingtons, an abe Lincoln and then there was the Trump. Cause he is funny. Smd. I will give him the benefit of the doubt and say it's cause he is naive or something. But still, cause he is funny? That's the reason he is your favorite president? So dumb. Especially cause he isn't funny.

The old standard response...takes on to know one. Too easy.

But then doesn't it take one to know one that knows one? Which, if I'm not mistaken, and using your own logic, would make you one. #ItsOnlyLogical
 
Lol Democrats have no issue calling Trump and his supporters racist, Nazi, white nationalist, Russia loving, KKK members for 3 years straight and get so bent out of shape when Trump trolls the haters back.

A bunch of ****ing bigoted children and bullies on both sides. This nation is lost and this has been happening for 10+ years. Trump is making it worse unfortunately but it's in no single way just him.

On both sides... sure buddy. But we're talking about the President aren't we? Let's focus on the guy throwing grenades into our society.

You are right but he is so extreme in his despicable behavior that it makes the rest seem like very small potatoes. So, let's not give him a pass because there are other jerks out there. He outjerks them all by a long shot. It's like comparing grade schoolers with a graduate student.
