I had a Leftist tell me this was OK because of the context.
Say what!?
When OUR guy used the MADE-UP word “macaca” a single time..?
His lifelong political career was OVER.
FINITO.
When Democrats say something racist, it’s a “gaffe.”
And they wonder why Trump calls them the enemy of the people.
"I said MACACA ONE time, a nonsense word I made-up on the spur of the moment, and my career was ruined."
A killer uses a social network to type out hateful messages for 3 months? The entire network is shut down.
She really was joking, even if it was tone deaf, and in poor taste.
I agree, if President Trump had made a comment like that, the media would have gone absolutely ballistic.
"Shoot-up a baseball game on my behalf..?
I'LL BE **FINE**...!!!
A gaffe is "50, Seven states", or "I see them out there" (Obama confusing Memorial Day and Veterans Day) or "Stand up Chuck" (to a man in a wheel chair).
This was an intentional joke, watch Hillary, she thinks she has just been clever.
"Took half of America to get my Twitter account freed up after I got banned for NOTHING."
This has to be spread far and wide.
It’s not a gaffe. It’s essentially an arrogant Hillary telling everyone that she can get away with these kinds of comments.
Is there any question that Satan is the ruler of this world?
Lives and careers have been destroyed over lesser comments, but since her husband was the first “black” President she apparently gets away with it.
I thought it was Asians who all looked alike.
It’s not a gaffe. It’s essentially an arrogant Hillary telling everyone that she can get away with these kinds of comments.
Hillary will be protected from her gaffe by the Ministry of Propaganda.
Sooooooo...? What was the “gaffe”?
But it was a joke, they said. It is completely acceptable, they said. It was cute, they said.
But don’t even think a conservative could say it.
Anthropologically, I’m pretty sure it is true though. People are better able to recognize people who look like themselves. I see it all the time with myself and my Hispanic friends, they rarely remember white people or their names until they get to know them well and I have trouble remembering Hispanics.
In the end, it seems we are all still tribal.
This morning, One America News broadcast a fairly lengthy and detailed profile of several such gaffes and remarks Hildebeast has made over the years. It was very good and a helpful reminder of who the real racist is here.
