“If you’re a white Southerner, you know exactly what it means.”
Former President Bill Clinton on Wednesday said Donald Trump’s campaign slogan, “Make America Great Again,” is a racist dog whistle.
“I’m actually old enough to remember the good old days, and they weren’t all that good in many ways,” Clinton said at a rally in Orlando. “That message where ‘I’ll give you America great again’ is if you’re a white Southerner, you know exactly what it means, don’t you?”
“What it means is ‘I’ll give you an economy you had 50 years ago, and I’ll move you back up on the social totem pole and other people down,’” he said. “What Hillary wants to do is take the totem poll down, and let us all go forward together.”
Clinton, who is a white Southerner himself, made the comments after Hillary Clinton gave a speech last month accusing Trump of bringing racism and fringe conspiracy theories into the mainstream with his 2016 campaign....

So according to Bill Clinton all White Southerners are racist. I guess that would include Old Bill himself.
This is coming from a guy that said back in 2008 that Obama would be fetching him coffee a fe years earlier.
Anyhow, agree it is a sign of absolutely desperation.
I don’t know anyone that is arguing for segregation? It’s a complete non issue. Bill knows good and well what Trump means.
Our Republic is in trouble and everyone knows it.
They’re desperate. The internal polls must be brutal.
You’re right. They are relying on their useful idiot’s believing every lie they spout. It won’t work as well as they think it will.
Cause, you know, Teddy, just a couple of years ago, this guy would’ve been getting our coffee, amirite? ...remember that little line backfiring, Bill?
I’ll give you America great again’ is if you’re a white Southerner,........................... Errr? Isn’t he one of those?
So "keep America in the crapper" would be complementary to black people?
Yes we are all racists for loving the USA.
We are going to the bowels of hell if the degenerate Clintons return to that White House.
I’m sure Hillary was able to pick up that “racist” dog whistle on her new earpiece she displayed tonight in the NYC forum.
Polling must be showing Trump’s slogan resonating with too many people. Have to try to take it down.
By the way you scumbag Clinton, we are not dogs.
They’re desperate. The internal polls must be brutal.
The left has tried repeatedly to beat Trump with this stick and it does not work. The fact that the big dog and candidate are playing this card in early September certainly supports your statement.
Bill Clintoon would know all about ddog whistles.
Polling must be showing Trump’s slogan resonating with too many people. Have to try to take it down.
I am still laughing about the “I’m with her” slogan. Who in the hell thought that one up? It was the best line of the campaign so far when Trump said “I’m with you.”
Its a shame the Clintons are such racists
