Again. What does that have to do with me or "confessions time"?

Confession is good for the soul though, maybe it's time you confess to being a bigot and a racist like your old friends and people on here know you to be.

I agree that the seat in Pennsylvania will probably not move from red to blue. But if the outcome does not not come close to Trump's performance in the district in 2016 it will be another bad omen for Republicans in November.

Oh that Alabama election and the other state elections show that Republican seats are up for grabs, just stating that because if the Republican wins by 3 points Trump people will swear that means there isn't anything going on and omit the huge swing in the amount the seat is won by.

This election has been called a "must-win" for Trump after recent disasters at the polls for Republicans. Saccone is the favorite but by much less than 20 points. I believe that this is the last bell weather test before November. Should be interesting.

Hey, that's my district! Conor Lamb is actually a good guy from a fine Irish-American family in Pittsburgh. If our national politics weren't so colossally fucked up due to blindly hyper-partisan shit-stirring assholes like millsy spewing nastiness and division, I would even consider voting for him.

I served in the army which is heavily black. Trump did everything he could to avoid military service.

Point is the only black people he has come in contact with throughout his life have been affluent blacks. Here is an article citing a handful of comments that Trump has made about blacks and other minorities. Like I keep saying -- Trump is his own worst enemy.

Well at least he knows Kanye.

Black unemployment is at an all time low. What more do you want?

What is there to really know about black culture which might make him a better President for blacks?

Barak Obama carried on a charade in Chicago for twenty years that he was a community organizer helping the people of the minority hoods. Yet no one can point to one thing he did there to benefit anyone but himself and some cronies, most of whom were not minorities at all LOL. He took a one million dollar house as a "gift" from one of them! It was in Hyde Park, and every day he'd ride in his limo to the hood to ply his phony trade of Chicago politics scams.

So this is the kind of person who "knows blacks" and has lived and grown up with them? Oh yeah. Maybe Jesse Jackson could be said to know the black community. Or perhaps Al Sharpton?

I think those people who "know the black community" are pretty much all scum. Trump doesn't need to have grown up with black people to be a good overall President, and I don't think there's anything any President can do which would be of particular benefit to blacks. If there is a particular policy they need which they don't already have what is it? Otherwise all I hear is that people like Obama and Jackson say these racially sensitive things but it's all talk. It makes no difference at all. It's just conversation.

Maybe they can get good old Al Sharpton to run for President!

Black unemployment is at an all-time low and still double the unemployment rate for whites.

Did you access the link I supplied earlier?

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/...mp-racist.html

There are many reasons why only about 10% of blacks support Trump and much of that has to do with his lack of understanding about how his comments are derogatory towards blacks. When Trump calls predominantly black countries "shitholes" that is interpreted by most people, black, white, or other, as being totally derogatory against all blacks.

Austin Ellen · 02-09-2018, 03:17 PM

Those sensitive little pansies need to get over it. Trump is a bottom line guy - no more of pussy Obama. I'm talking about Barry - not Michelle - she' actually the one with the dick in that family. I'm so sick of this political correct bullshit I could throw up.

Austin Dude · 02-09-2018, 05:54 PM

Trump loving poster talks about Cory Booker looking like an abusive ex at a committee hearing, saying that Republicans will be able to run ads with that against him. Donald Trump's administration allowed a serial abusive ex to stay on for a year, told him to stay when he was going to resign and Trump reminds everyone that he says he is innocent.. wished him well.. and said he did a good job. And that same poster isn't talking about that now. Funny how that works. Looking like an abusive ex and being anti Trump is more damning than being a serial one who works with Trump. Even worse, looking like one and being Booker is worse than enabling one like Kelly and McGahn or talking glowingly about one like Trump. Trump people are so ass backwards it's crazy.

Breaking News: A second member of Trump's administration has to resign for domestic abuse. Cory Booker was slandered but I guess we know where the real abusive ex's are, wish more Trump lovers would denounce it.

gfejunkie · 02-10-2018, 06:31 AM

Typical. Blame Trump for something someone else did.

Next...

Austin Ellen · 02-10-2018, 10:12 AM

And then they say Cory Booker is being slandered while calling the President of the United States raciest - That's their problem - double standard. They'll learn - or not - I don't give a flying fuck anymore.

Wow Trump people talking about double standards, that’s hilarious.

To try to equate someone saying Cory Booker looks like an abusive ex to people calling Donald Trump a racist is foolish, disingenuous, and moronic. Has a woman come out calling Booker that or accusing him of that? Nope. Plenty of people have said this about Trump. He was sued and lost the case for violating civil rights of African Americans. Polls show more people believe him to be racist than approve of his presidency. Plenty of African Americans, Muslims, and Hispanics have said yes he is racist, and just like with women in abusive relationship you tell the victims they are wrong. It’s sad. Just admit that Trump and his people handled this situation poorly. They hired despicable people. And Trump didn’t do a good job of denouncing their actions.

But I must say the twisted mind of a Trump supporter is something to see play out... slander a man saying he looked like an abusive ex. Then to attack the Dems for Kennedy speaking you say you wish they would have had the same man you slandered speak, that would have been your pick. Forgetting Trump’s own issues with minorities. Then when Trump’s administration is revealed to have actual abusive ex’s, you then equate that slander you previously had to denounced his handling of the ex’s with his very real racism.

His handling in which he never mentions the pain of the women (maybe because he’s been accused of harming multiple women himself and acknowledging other women’s pain puts him in a box) and the tweeting this:
https://mobile.twitter.com/realDonal...7Ctwgr%5Etweet

Again showing his stupidity and reminding us of his racism. He took out a full page ad condemning people who claimed their innocence and said they needed the death penalty. They were innocent and he never apologized. But now he’s all about claims of innocence and due process?

Miss me with that bullshit.

After 30 years you're still looking for an apology? Me too, millsy.

Trump may be a "bottom line guy" but it is that attitude that will cost him dearly come November elections in my opinion. You seem to neglect the fact that Trump's approval ratings, both in this country and outside, are borderline pathetic. Unlike you, most people do NOT give unwavering support to Trump.

Being politically correct is one thing. Taking into account how your words will affect the lives of others is different. You should understand this more than most others on this forum since you have taken quite a bit of verbal abuse with name-calling. I could call the ECCIE women "whores" but I prefer not to. I don't think it is politically correct. Sometimes a little compassion is very important. Especially when that person is POTUS.
