November 22, 20169 yr I'm currently awaiting your answer to my Jarrett question. Another double standard then. Only fear mongering allowed is from your side. Duly noted. Refer to post in other thread.
November 22, 20169 yr Sessions broke the back of the KKK in Alabama. Now the media wants you to think he's racist. - Yellowhammer News
November 22, 20169 yr Would you pay attention to Farakkhan if he was named Chief Strategist or would you still not pay any attention to him? And again, the New Black Panthers aren't a legitimate group. Farakkhan and the Nation of Islam is. The KKK is. The White Nationalist movement is. Why do you insist on lumping the New Black Panthers in with credible groups that have actual plans, true organization, followers, monetary support and structure? The Bloods and Crips are more credible organizations than the New Black Panthers. I don't understand why people insist on mentioning them with all of these other groups. The reason everyone groups them in is because they have as much power as the KKK or White Nationalist( I never even heard of this till lately I will add again). Nobody gives these idiots the time of day, nobody regardless of what the media tells you. They need to shut up like the KKK, Black Panthers, Farakkhan, Jackson, Sharpton etc. All these hate groups are doing what they want when people buy into that crap and we become further divided. I will tell you this before I live in fear I will strap on some high power stuff and not worry.
November 22, 20169 yr From today's meeting between Mr Trump and the NYT: Maggie Haberman Verified account @maggieNYT On Bannon:"If I thought he was a racist or alt-right or any of the things, the terms we could use, I wouldn't even think about hiring him." How Donald Trump's New Campaign Chief Created an Online Haven for White Nationalists | Mother Jones From a Mother Jones article when Bannon was tapped by Mr Trump: "We're the platform for the alt-right," Bannon told me proudly when I interviewed him at the Republican National Convention (RNC) in July
November 23, 20169 yr Could it be some of these media outlets trying to tie Trump to White Nationalists are just pushing their narrative in hopes that those that hate Trump continue to drink the Kool-Aide?
November 24, 20169 yr Author Could it be some of these media outlets trying to tie Trump to White Nationalists are just pushing their narrative in hopes that those that hate Trump continue to drink the Kool-Aide? I don't need the media to be disenchanted with Trump. He did that on his own. He's at rock bottom for me regardless so he can only go up for me. He can't get lower. And keep in mind there were multiple prominent republicans who spoke out against Bannon. That's one of the main reasons I was surprised Trump supporters blew off the reports.

You've railed for years how others need to give Obama a chance, now you are doing what you accuse them of.

And keep in mind there were multiple prominent republicans who spoke out against Bannon. That's one of the main reasons I was surprised Trump supporters blew off the reports. I can relate, pretty much how I have felt about Obama all along and still do. I didn't vote for Trump, but I'll wait to see what he does once he takes office. I don't expect a lot, but I hope for all of us I'm pleasantly surprised.
November 24, 20169 yr How open minded of you. You've railed for years how others need to give Obama a chance, now you are doing what you accuse them of. There are quite a number of BGPers that are eating their own words on that one. It's popcorn time! Enjoy with me, cap! :popcorn:
November 24, 20169 yr How open minded of you. You've railed for years how others need to give Obama a chance, now you are doing what you accuse them of. Serious question: Many years previous to running for president how many people did you ever hear speak favorably on Trump? How often when people spoke of him did you hear folks speak ill of him? Sure, he was in the spotlight a lot but not for being liked, but for being a smarmy loud mouthed megalomaniac. Personally he made me cringe long ago, and he never did anything to change that. He needed no help from the media because he did a fine job turning people off all on his own. Then he announces that he's running for president and millions everywhere all of the sudden think that he's great. How? I seriously don't get it. If he had been liked before I could understand, but he wasn't. capt278, are there really that many obnoxious blow hards in this country that he is speaking for, and is the face of?

Good points, and I agree to a point. Like I've said for months, he never appealed to me. I think it was more of 8 years of liberalism rammed down the throats of middle class America than anyting else, and that's not all on Obama.

November 24, 20169 yr Author How open minded of you. You've railed for years how others need to give Obama a chance, now you are doing what you accuse them of. Phhhhtttttt. I've never said give Obama a chance. I've just spoken on how I feel as an Obama supporter. The BGP conservatives have made it plainly clear that they do not like Obama. I don't waste my time trying to convince people of things that will never happen. I just speak my mind. What part of Trump can only go up for me at this point are you missing? The ball is in his court. Will he be the moderate he acts like or will he be the Alt Right personality he tends to portray as well? We shall see. Edited November 24, 20169 yr by PurplePride92

It's like how people say "no one said Trump was a racist until he ran for POTUS". The answer to that is why would we care that he was racist until he decided to run for POTUS.
