Rob Reiner: Trump ‘Unearthed’ Racism of Uneducated White Male Supporters (ok meathead, whatever)
Big Hollywood ^ | Jerome Hudson

Posted on 09/10/2016 7:52:59 PM PDT by drewh

Filmmaker, actor and outspoken Donald Trump detractor Rob Reiner says it is impossible to level with the Republican presidential nominee’s bigoted supporters, who are “mostly white males who don’t have college degrees.” In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, the actor said that there’s “a very serious strain of racism” that runs through those supporting the Republican presidential nominee.

“And that’s a kind of disturbing thing, and I don’t think you ever reach those people. I think that they’re impossible to turn around. It’s very disturbing because a lot of these racist ideas have kind of been dormant for a while, and he’s given voice to them — he’s kind of unearthed it. And the thing that’s most disturbing is to discover that there’s so many people that still hold those views,” Reiner said.

Reiner goes onto suggest that Trump supporters feel “threatened” by America’s racial diversity.

“If it isn’t overt racism, it’s this kind of a desperate attempt at holding on to some version of America that they think was there once. They’re really threatened by our diversity, and what’s so great about the experiment of democracy is that it celebrates diversity and diversity is what makes it strong,” he said.

Rob Reiner? I hadn't heard this guy's name in so long, I assumed he had passed away.

At any rate, his father must have been one heck of a jockstrap to support a d!ck like him.

Did Reiner even graduate high school in real life?

Diversity doesn’t make a country strong, assimilation does.

I’m not sure that attacking Trump supporters is very wise, as it just motivates them to vote and further solidifies their support.

So no complaints from me regarding Hillary or Rump Ranger here.

LOL, Reiner, what is YOUR degree?

Film? At best? Does that even count?

I am white, but I am female, and an “educated” engineer. With plenty of well-rounded personal study and interests. Probably know more things than you.

But maybe that’s why *I* refuse to vote Dem/Commie.

The Princess Bride and A Few Good Men were great movies.

Now, please go walk into the woods alone in December.

So none of these arrogant liberal pricks have figured out yet that insulting Trump’s supporters only makes things worse for their hopeless candidate?

Great, please keep talking guys! Tell me again how I don’t have a college degree and how racist I am. It’s music to my ears!

Rob Reiner...another person who is VERY lucky that he could trade on his last name, or he wouldn't have ever been much of anything at all.

He is a bigot, a racists, a misogynist, and has the IQ of three week old roadkill.

Rob, you were a jerk on All in the Family, and 45 years have not made a difference.

THE PRINCESS BRIDE is only a good movie ( and it is, because William Goldman wrote a GREAT book; a book which is better than the movie.

Standard Hollywood scum. The bosses are ultra-liberal, so the stooges follow suit to get the work.

Zero self-respect.
