Or saying we don’t want immigrants from ■■■■ hole countries (as if the conditions of that country are inherent to those people and they’d bring those conditions here).
Would you have ever thought that we’d be the ones arguing that the president is a role model? Remember when the people who are defending Trump acting like a ten year old didn’t think a president who was never in the military should be president? What a country!
Not Trump directly? Holy ■■■■ dude! Give teenagers with cell phones and half a brain more credit. They know what’s going on. And clearly, “Build that wall!” is not distorted in the slightest. It’s loud and clear, direct from the source.
It’s okay if the president says someone can’t do their job because of their ethnicity. As long as he says Mexican and not Latino. That’s excellent behavior.
And? Building the wall is not an endorsement of children chanting it at American kids. So if I am for building the wall that means I am encouraging kids to be jackasses? I don’t think so.
You’re very hung up on responsibility with this. We’re talking influence. We’re talking about how these kids are using the words of our President to bully and harass other kids.
He had some pretty clear indicators regarding his thoughts on the issue at hand, I wouldn’t choose him as my judge of choice either. And it’s not racist to point out that just maybe he had a conflict of interest either. In any case the kids in question weren’t chanting, you have a conflict of interest based on your ethnic heritage so we’d like a different judge.
As I said, that particular statement is indefensible and I have no issue with anyone saying it was a bad example for children. However, given how recently that happened, I doubt any of the instances they described happened after he made it. So kind of hard to blame it on that one.
