November 21, 20169 yr I can't lie. I'm starting to become entertained by all of this. White Nationalists Celebrate Trump's Victory and Early Appointments | Mother Jones
November 21, 20169 yr Author And just so we are clear and consistent. Trump did not run a campaign fueled with hateful racist rhetoric. It's all coincidental that white nationalists/supremacists are empowered enough to not only come out of hiding but they are attaching their names to the movement and are clear on their objectives. The National Policy Institute and their leader Richard Spencer hosted the celebration. THE NATIONAL POLICY INSTITUTE

November 21, 20169 yr I would guess the Black Panthers were celebrating 8 years ago just the same. Do I care those idiots celebrated Obama's victory? Nope, just like I dont care white nationalist idiots celebrating Trumps victory. Both groups are racist morons which that doesn't mean the candidate they celebrated are racist either.

Not even remotely close to the same situation at all. Not even close.
November 21, 20169 yr Not even remotely close to the same situation at all. Not even close. Actually, very similar. Undeniably similar I guess you could say not similar if you account for Obama being a member of a church lead by an anti white, anti American, Black Nationalist like Rev Wright whereas Trump doesn't have direct ties to White Nationalist groups. But other than that, you hav e two presidents endorsed by racist groups and I don't believe such endorsement brand either as holding those groups views.
November 21, 20169 yr Not even remotely close to the same situation at all. Not even close. I'm with you. Obama may have had friends(or a pastor) that was questionable but Trump has had ACTIONS in the past that has made him questionable on issues of race. And one of his first appointees has White Nationalist ties. Like you, I say not even close to the same situation.

You don't think Trump has direct ties to White Nationalist groups. It appears to be a moot point to have that discussion with Trump supporters on BGP. I'll just end with that I hope your opinion is indeed a fact and that he doesn't have direct ties to White Nationalist groups.

And one of his first appointees has White Nationalist ties. Like you, I say not even close to the same situation. I'll be the first to admit my unhealthy bias towards Obama but BGP supporters appear to have an even unhealthier bias towards Trump. It's not even a worthy discussion anymore. A Chief Strategist with easy to prove White Nationalist ties and an Attorney General who apparently was so racist he wasn't allowed to become a federal judge. The reply will be but the democrats had Robert Byrd and they act like he is a trophy that democrats held up or something. And if I am not mistaken he was elected by the people of West Virginia. These cats were appointed by the President Elect so in some ways even Robert Byrd's situation is different. He's every bit as bad as Bannon is believed to be and as Sessions has proven to be. Hell, he and Sessions may have been close friends and confidants at one time for all we know. Nothing to see here though. :lol2: :lol2: :no:

Social media has her convinced that Hillary has had people murdered and the Trump was sent to save the world from Hillary and Obama's evilness !!!
