This is the guy that a group of people here want you to NOT vote against. Don’t listen to them and as many others have said already…. Vote like lives depend on it.
The "I'd rather live under a fascist dictatorship than vote for Biden" crowd are little better than the red-hatted morons cheering for that same fascist dictatorship.
…. Barely. At least the red-hatted morons can claim stupidity if they ever snap out of it.
Non-voting "leftists" will just find a way to moralize their shitty choice, just like they virtue signal about genocide and immediately promote tactics that are going to increase it.
Bingo. I’m not saying there aren’t some legitimate leftists, but considering that they’re not doing shit about those posing as them to spread propaganda- really doesn’t help their agenda at all.
Lives do depend on it
They absolutely do.
Vote because lives depend on it
This. 100%!
Everyone should vote for Biden.
You pretend everyone to your left is all the way to your right because and only because you never want to move to the left.
To be honest, I think everyone should vote for a more fitting candidate. Unfortunately, all we have is Biden, so that will have to do for now.
Vote Biden or see more crazy bullshit under Trump, people!
Vote for Biden and spend the next 3 years pushing for better candidates!
DudI, you are as predictable as they come. I could fish for Crab just by posting ANYTHING critical of the “far left” propagandists.
And- I don’t pretend, kiddo…
They are here in DROVES telling people not to vote. And you know this. You’ve been involved in some of the discussions where these people post their shit-take comments. So what’s your angle here?
You say you’re voting for Biden, yet protect the propagandists that are seemingly trying to get Trump elected?

There was that one other time Trump was racist (not current! only includes up to 2017):
1973: The Nixon Administration sued Trump for refusing to rent to black people
1980s: Trump’s casinos were accused of hiding black staff when Trump visited
1989: Trump took out a full page ad arguing for the death penalty for a group of black men (The ‘Central Park Five’), effectively putting a bounty on their heads and plaguing them with a lifetime of death threats. He was sued by the Justice Department for discrimination.
1991: “Black guys counting my money! I hate it. The only kinds of people I want counting my money are short guys that wear yarmulkes every day...I think that the [black] guy is lazy. And it’s probably not his fault, because laziness is a trait in blacks. It really is.
1992: Trump’s casino was fined $200,000 for transferring black dealers off certain tables to appease racist patrons.
1993: Trump said Native American casinos shouldn’t be allowed because, “They don’t look like Indians to me.”
2000: Trump ran a series of attack ads against Native American casinos, alleging (with no proof) that they were guilty of crimes.
2004: Trump fired a black contestant from ‘The Apprentice” for being over-educated.
2010: Trump argued in favor of segregating Muslims in Lower Manhattan.
2011: Birtherism. Trump alleged that Obama was Kenyan based on nothing but skin color. He’s neither apologized, nor renounced that claim.
2015 (1): Trump called Mexican immigrants “rapists” who are “bringing crime and drugs” to the US.
2015 (2): Trump called for “a ban on all Muslims entering the US.”
2016(1): Trump called for a Mexican judge to recuse himself based on nothing other than his race. Paul Ryan said, “This was the textbook definition of a racist comment.”
2016 (2): Trump regularly retweeted material from white supremacists and neo-Nazis during his campaign.
2016(3): Trump tweeted a picture alleging Hillary was Jewish or controlled by Jewish people.
2016(4): The Trump campaign adopted Nixon’s “Law and Order” rhetoric which was based in racial fear mongering.
2016(5): Trump told black voters, “What do you have to lose?”
2017(1): Trump asked a black reporter to set up a meeting with the black caucus simply because she was black.
2017(2): “...some very fine people on both sides”, said Trump of a violent Nazi rally.
I find it difficult to believe the last racist thing Trump did was 7 years ago.
Yes but Biden was kind of mean to Bibi while giving Bibi a bunch of weapons which makes BIDEN ANTISEMITIC and TRUMP LIKE JESUS!
TBH this is quite mild on the Trump scale...
Trump made a tasteless, racist joke.
Liberals: OMFG! I can't believe this shit!
FFS, are we not used to this by now? This is nothing. Just throw it in the bucket with the rest of his shit.
Dude literally staged a coup to stay in power and we are debating whether or not he's too much of a racist or antisemite to be President again.
It's all part of his rich tapestry of cuntiness.
No, because it's worse than that - he is normalizing the horrorshow into acceptance
It's normalized already. It's fucked up.
This is nothing.
Racism is not nothing.
You have to keep pointing out the bad shit he does, or some people are gonna forget
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Res also participated in a 2016 New York Times article along with dozens of women who called out Trump’s private behavior toward them.
“He would make ridiculous remarks,” Res said Sunday on MSNBC’s Velshi of her time with Trump.
“And Donald [Trump] was bragging among, to us executives, there were four of us, about how great the guy was and he was a real gentleman, and he was so neat and clean.
And he looked at a couple of our executives who happen to be Jewish, and he said ‘Watch out for this guy, he sort of remembers the ovens,’ you know, and then smiled.”
“He mocked religious people, he thought they were stupid for believing in things that were obviously, intellectually to him not true.”
In her book about Trump, Res wrote, “Bigotry and bias control Donald’s view of the world.”
The original article contains 374 words, the summary contains 142 words. Saved 62%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
