Maybe we’re so busy trying to “destroy the country” that we missed the point and all the nuances of that poster’s thoughtful response. This kind of willful, deliberate destruction that we’re engaged in takes focus and effort, after all.

Which makes sense, as we don’t live in that world.
Nah, Trump is a racist. I dont need the media to tell me that, I just listen to what he says.
And are obviously not attempting to create it, despite protests to the contrary.
What world is it you seek to build?

On a one to ten, I’d go with a four. Not really but I’ve heard the claim about racism and have looked for it and not found it. I hear many on the left attacking him and when I ask for their evidence, they can not produce any.
Yes…I have missed it and have intentionally listened for it due to the accusations I’ve heard regarding him.

No…
Not all idiots are racist, but all racists are idiots…
I know you like arguing for the sake of arguing but taking up this flag(racist NOT being idiots) seems a bit low for you…

Why are you subscribing morality to it. Most racists are not idiots. They are conniving.
How do you determine that you know 40% of something? Maybe the racism is in the other 60%.
IMO…you should get clear on that because it’s a problem.
It may very well be and if it is, I’ll reexamine my opinion but so far…I’ve not seen any evidence of it.
