Almost Half The Country Thinks Donald Trump Is A Racist
Huffingtonpost. ^ | July 4, 2018

Posted on 07/04/2018 2:36:50 PM PDT by SMGFan

Nearly half of voters think President Donald Trump is a racist, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released Tuesday.

Forty-nine percent of voters said Trump is racist, while 47 percent said he’s not, according to the poll. These numbers are similar to those from a February Quinnipiac poll, where 49 percent of voters said Trump was racist and 46 percent said he was not.

Forty-four percent of voters said they think “racist beliefs” were a motive in Trump’s immigration policy, while 50 percent said Trump has “a sincere interest in controlling our borders.” Sixty percent said the policy of separating children from their parents at the border was a violation of human rights.

Since enacting the policy, Trump and his associates have repeatedly pushed false, racist narratives to garner support, often associating immigration with high crime rates despite no evidence to support claims that immigrants commit more crime than U.S. citizens.

Hard to figure. They can look at the mess that is Venezuela and figure that more socialism is what they need.

Almost every business has policies that put Whites at the back of every line.

I doubt that many of them actually believe it. It’s a virtue-signaling game, where democrats are afraid to say anything that disagrees with the accepted talking points.

Immigrants or Illegals?

Heard a story tonight where the cops are looking for four illegals for raping two girls. Golly gee, Liberal Democrat Socialists. If they hadn't been allowed in I guess they could not have committed the crime.

Blame this on Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi.

And this is against all reason. I do wish that the decent powers that be would come to terms with and deal with the fact that vast amounts of people have been mass hypnotized. A study in how to break hypnotic trance “spells” would be a good place to start in helping the victims become deprogrammed, for their sakes, and ours.

Half of the people in this country are mentally retarded.

That is easy to make evident.

So what? Hillary Clinton is President, at least according to the polls in November 2016!

Yeah... I don’t remember a poll asking Americans if they thought Obama was a racist... or a communist...

So let’s say HuffPuffPost has a 3% market penetration - and that’s being generous. That must mean 97% of all Americans are anti-HuffPuffPost, hate them, and want to see them fail. I like having HuffPuffPost around to be an example of off the rails leftist insanity.

Just tells me that the Left has managed to water down the word “racist” to the point that it has little real meaning.

Quinnipiac should do a poll asking if people think Maxine looks like an old whore.... I’ll bet more than 20% of people will say ‘yes’....

Of course that would be ‘insulting’ and Quinnipiac would be sensitive to that - - being liberals and all.

Too bad they don’t see how insulting it is asking similar questions about conservatives.
