So how is Trump's Pocahontas remark racist? (vanity)
6/11/2016 | Myself

Donald Trump continues to call Elizabeth Warren "Pocahontas" and is being called a racist for doing so. So let's go through this charge in a straightforward and logical way, a way which escapes too many Americans, particularly liberals.

Elizabeth Warren lied on her college admission aplications that she was native American even though she has no Native American ancestry. Elizabeth Warren is Lilly white. Warren claims one side of her family has Indian descendents and then flip flops and says the other side has them. Elizabeth Warren will not release genealogical records.

It's obvious Warren is a fraud. It's also obvious that the fraud perpetrated was racist in nature.

So how did Trump come to be called racist? Trump called a white women a famous Indian name to shame her for perpetuating a clearly racist fraud. Trump did not disparage Pocahontas in the least. Trump disparaged Elizabeth Warren, the lilly white fraud.

So how is Trump racist again? How stupid and cowardly are the people calling him racist?

I think the answer is obvious and that the press and the political class are perpetuating fraud.

Here's my argument about the unfairmess of the racist charge against Trump. The press has everyone angry about it but just the slightest bit of thinking reveals that the victim here is not only Trump but race relations as well.

He should have called her Fauxcahontas. The whole point is that she’s not native American, but she used that group identification to get a high-paying teaching gig at Harvard.

The race card is the only card they to use against him.

By continuous use, they’re hoping it will stick.

Most leftists democrats are not going to vote for Trump anyway, and his supporters don’t care.

The race card is what they play when they’re losing the argument. But, it’s been way overplayed and no ones listening (except the media).

What is really racist is posing as a minority to enjoy some benefits.

This was going to be used against any republican nominee.

Ferguson, Baltimore and the creation of the BLM didn’t just spring from the grass roots.

I think most of us knew that race was going to be a big factor in Obamas racist “post racial” election year

So how did Trump come to be called racist?

Because libs love to use that charge whether or not race applies.

Example 1: proposing a ban on Muslim immigration somehow 'racist' even though Islam isn't a race, and there are Muslims of all skin colors.

Example 2: proposing a wall along our southern border is somehow 'racist' even though Mexico isn't race, and there are Mexicans of many different skin colors.

You didn’t think that the crony capitalists have given up on stopping Trump with any means necessary, did you?

Here is a lesson in WHY Trump can withstand all the attacks from every side.
Republicans take note. This is exactly why you are getting your clocks cleaned.

HE DOESN’T AGREE WITH HIS OPPONENTS YOU STUPID BASTARDS!

Doesn’t matter if it is unfair. The press have fixed the target, charged him as racist and is not closing the net ever tighter.

I’m afraid Trump is cooked. And it makes me very fearful of what is about to happen. I had a little hope but the character assisination is in full swing. People that I know who were new found supporters only a couple of weeks ago are now turning on him again.

The court of public opinion is a kangaroo court controlled by the press.

And it is sticking and the sheeple have been so coditioned against the label of racist that they will not support him lest they be branded the same.

Fear rules the sheeple and is the first tool of choice of the collective.

It’s happened many times before and he has powered through it. This is no different.
