@Samm

If calling someone a Mexican is racist, so is calling someone a typical white person. At least “white” is a euphemism or one of the generally accepted races.

His own grandmother?

Yes. Can you believe it!?

Wrong post…

So we are going with Obama is racist towards his grandmother.

I love this place

Obama was racist toward all white people. If it was just his grandmother he would of said my grandmother. Instead the racist that he was he included all people with lighter skin.

You must be joking.

[TheRedComet]

That was the one thing Obama said that really irked me.

It was uncalled for.

[TheRedComet]

I wouldn’t go that far.

I think what he said was stupid.

But I don’t think he is a racist towards whites.

The Obama presidency bought many bigots out of the closet…And his successor made it perfectly acceptable to openly be one.

You are right, but the bigots that came out if the closet" were the Democrat party and the “successor” is Joe Biden.

What did Trump gain from the Presidency?

Well there are the financial gains his properties got.

Profit made by his companies while he was President (and not in charge of them) is what one expects from a viable business, not evidence of corruption.

You don’t think there was a conflict of interest there? People trying to curry favor staying at the hotel owned by the President?

If the shoe fits.

If you are having trouble with that, try replacing the word “white” with “black” and see what you think.

Everyone … EVERYONE … who has ever run for office has had a conflict of interest.

Some worse than others.

No argument there, but a good way to differentiate that would be by comparing their wealth before running for office with their wealth after leaving office.

Not really. There are a other factors that could lead to him having a loss overall.

[Samm]

And?

I love it when people say “not really” and then leave you hanging. It’s often more informative than if they had actually said something.

I’m sorry, I didn’t realize you didn’t know that Trump owned a bunch of businesses any which of one is capable of experiencing financial losses, especially after the economic downturn that occurred due to covid.

[Samm]

And what did you expect those businesses to do while he was President? Fail?

Excuse me, I need to get on the phone with Mr. Hilton and remind him of all the favors he owes me because I often stay at his hotel. Think I should ask for a yacht or a mansion?

Were you cool with the idea of people getting access to Clinton when she was SOS by donating to the Clinton Foundation?
