The nonsense that is Mitt Romney’s ‘trickle-down racism’ charge against Trump
Canada Free Press ^ | 06/14/16 | Herman Cain

Let's talk about what racism really is, and why this guy's charge is so completely absurd.

Mitt Romney’s latest attempt to discourage people from supporting Donald Trump is to say he will inspire “trickle-down racism.” It’s a catchy soundbite, but it’s not true. And! I didn’t want to do this, but now I feel compelled to illustrate what racism is and is not.

This nation has come a long way since the Emancipation Proclamation took effect on January 1, 1863. That was 100 years before I graduated from high school (2nd in my class by the way). I was not admitted to the University of Georgia, because desegregation of higher education was just starting, and the university did not want to admit too many black students.

I love Herman....He talked about this on his radio show today.

He focuses on the right thing....if you look at the wrong problem you will never get a solution

Romney is a fool who made a big mistake trying to change the minds of Trump supporters. They will follow Trump and his “Make America Great Again” just like those dumbasses who followed the phony American, Obama and his “Hope & Change” lure. Now we hope for a sea change.

We are observing the downfall of the Republic. No Democracy will last with voters like those fools who elected and reelected a disaster.

2008 was the beginning.........the nails continue to be pounded into America’s coffin.

Amazing how the establishment republicans have started to use the exact same tactics as the libs - paint anyone who disagrees with you as a “racist” in order to shut down the conversation. It’s pretty clear they are both working for the same masters.

Romney is just worried that if Trump gets elected, The Cheap Labor Express will get shut down.

Mr. Cain is a very smart man with an abundance of common sense. I wish he had won the Republican nomination when he ran for president. I think he could have beaten Obama.

Romney is slowly losing his mind, the same as Biden talking about naked women. We can also put Hilbird in that group of a-holes. God save the nation from morons like these.

I remember a story about Romney as governor of MA. He was shocked, absolutely shocked, to learn that his lawn service employed illegal aliens to work at his house.

Whenever I see the name Romney, I will always associate it with the phrase “choked like a dog”.
