    David Duke endorsed the current republican presidnet. A bunch of neo Nazis got together and called their march "Unite the Right." So you're right there is one party working hard to make me believe that if you vote for the right you're racist...

    One particular side has been shouting the same divisive talking point for years:

    “Hey Whitey, vote for us or you’re a racist!”
    “Hey Blacky, vote for us or you’re an Uncle Tom!”

    This talking point has been effective for a long time. Fortunately I’d like to think it’ll wear off as we enter the twenties.
     
  4. David Duke is a has-been with absolutely no friends in Washington, so any "endorsement" from him is no better than getting one from a cartoon character. But I'm curious to know if you think this somehow casts a shadow on Trump? I guess that's because Trump hasn't endorsed Duke and isn't likely to.

    Also, it could be that Duke endorsed Trump because he's a sexist. I doubt it's about racism since Duke endorsed Obama as well. Not because he liked Obama, but because he felt it was exactly what America deserved for abandoning people like him. So really, what possible use would Trump have with an endorsement from a mental case like Duke?

  5. If only. We have people in their 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s and 70s who STILL lap up this bullshit.

    As usual you charge/exaggerate your point into nonsense. Unless you don't mean with 'one particular side' the entire left. But yeah, you really do say one particular side....
    Stormountainman and you really deserve eachother as convo partners imo. And you two are also a great example of the bigger picture in the US where it comes to the majority of voters.

    Come on, you don't fall far such crap do you? Just because some SJWs do say such stuff doesn't make it a whole side or even the majority of it.

    I never said Trump targets meth-heads (and a wide variety of other deplorables) but they do seem to swam around him (like a moth to a flame)
    or as Stephen Colbert suggests “he attracts more skin-heads than a bottle of Rogaine" ...lol...

    I agree hotwater. Trump has made it OK to be a White Supremacist and his followers are feeling their oats these days. They sure like to hate Muslims. They say things like, "We should just turn that place into a glass parking lot" and "kill them all and let God sort them out" and "Kick their ass and take their gas." IT really makes the Brown guys like me feel nice and fuzzy all over knowing these supreme White guys are so nice to minorities.

    Trump likes David Duke because Duke got his PHD in the Ukraine.

    His followers must feel quite conflicted because on one hand they understand the need to support the state of Israel (to keep the vile muslims in check)
    on the other hand anti-semitism runs through their blood.

    And did you notice they want to be the ones who decide which person is a Semite? There is a famous law case where a Negro man from Egypt suffered discrimination and the rich White guys in Indiana told the court the man is from Egypt so he's not Black. The judge pointed out to them that Egypt is in Africa.

  13. Oh Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaa

    You made my day (and I'm cleaning Red Bull from my screen).
     
  14. Since my answer was entirely wrong, I have no idea what to think of yours. I misinterpreted "twenties" entirely.
     
  15. Having been a meth head in the 80s (after getting my dexedrine script pulled for being a freak), I can't imagine giving a flying shit about politics whilst using. And meth is the sort of thing you use for weeks at a time. I can't see them wasting good meth money on something like a MAGA hat or a Trump rally either.

    I understand hating Trump, but there's enough real shit to hate. This thing you're suggesting isn't realistic.

    Look, just tell me when your hero Trump will release his tax records. He did promise to do that after the audit was finished. Did he not?

    I ment this:

    The last sentence is the most irrelevant imo. But that it is put like that's the general tactic of one political side seems false. A gross exaggeration at best.

    I used to be a Dewars Scotts whiskey fan, so it would not work.

  20. Yea, I missed that. But I have been hearing the characterization, for decades, that anyone who doesn't vote democrat is a racist or a slave (the way I first heard it expressed in the 70s).

    I think whomever came up with "Uncle Tom" as a pejorative should have finished the book. Most people who use that term have no idea who Cassie was or that Uncle Tom was a hero. Which blows my mind when I consider that the book was required reading when I was in school. All those decades of taking classic literature off of school reading lists has brought us to this kind of collective stupidity.
