One black person speaks for all black people. Hooray!
gooperâs at the hearing: how dare you!! arglebargle, snarl, weâll get you and your little dog, too."
The GOP is not exactly covering itself in glory today.
Tokenism at its finest.
Next up we will bring you a porn star Trump didnât pay to have sex with.
He didnât pay you for sex?
No.
See itâs a lie.
GOP Rep Uses Bizarre Logic To Disprove Cohenâs Claim That Trump Is Racist
Whats Lynn Patton going to say, âyeah he is a racist, but I need the job anywayâ. Whatâs more they could bring Trumpâs black mistress and that would not prove he is not a racist, even Strum Thurmond had one.
WOW. MM is using the âguess whoâs coming to dinnerâ defense? Amazing. DO whitesplain for us Mark.
I feel like this always needs repeating:
You can employ black folks, have a couple of black friends, enjoy having sex with black folks, but none of that makes you NOT racist just as employing women, loving the women in your life, and being a heterosexual male who really likes having sex with women and still be a misogynistic bag of dicks.
The goppers havenât covered themselves in glory since Dwight D. Eisenhower; and he was the only one.
If memory serves, literally the first time Donald Trump came to public attention was for a housing discrimination civil rights lawsuit against him and his father, which they settled under a consent decree in which without admitting guilt they promised to abide by the Fair Housing Act and do other things to compensate for the situation theyâd created.
Soooooo, ânuh uh, not racistâŚTrump has a black friendâ? Really? REALLY? THAT is the best they could do? This shit is hilarious.
Some of them had some fine hoursâŚour former Senator Mark Hatfield, for example, was a principled and consistent opponent of the Vietnam misadventure. I think President Reagan deserves credit for partnering with Gorbachev over the objections of his hawkish advisors and President Bush for his restraint when the Berlin Wall came down. And W gets some props for standing up against Muslim scapegoating after 9-11. But admittedly these are few and far between and non-existent since '08.
This whole thing is taking on the aspect of rooting for a disgruntled swamp hydra to go slay the Great Orange Dragon for us. Iâd urge caution who our friends are.
What a joke. Trumpâs obviously an old school bigot who thinks God color-coded humans so heâd know what jobs weâre good for and how much he should pay us. For many jobs, heâll ONLY hire people of color and the more desperately illegal, the better. Just another reason Trumpâs supporters would hate him the most if he were a Democrat.
Thatâs a good point and worth keeping in mind. But you can distinguish between the legal standard, which as I understand it is basically once a liar never credible, and the normal life standard, which is that a person who stuck to the cover story might get mad and start naming names, and thatâs the more truthful, credible part. Also things are credible if they fit with a larger pattern, and boy does everything Cohenâs saying do that. The Trump heâs describing is the Trump weâve seen this whole time.
My best friend is a black man.

âMeadows said that Patton didnât agree with Cohenâs allegations that Trump was a racist and brought up that Patton said that, as a daughter of a man born in Birmingham, she would never work for a racist.â

Eisenhower may have been the last one, but he wasnât the only one. Among presidents, there was Teddy Roosevelt and Lincoln and, um, well, Iâm thinking. Maybe Grant, in spite of the scandals, was okay.
