Herman Cain Makes STUNNING Trump Remarks… “I Know What a Racist Looks Like”

Speaking before a crowd Wednesday in Atlanta, Georgia, businessman Herman Cain made remarks about GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump that might have left some in the mainstream media bewildered.

Cain said that liberals have blurred issues in this presidential election because they want to label Trump as something that he is not. He said there are “a lot of lies out there” about Trump, and he wanted to set the record straight about one of the biggest of those lies, which was that Trump is a racist.

“I grew up in Atlanta, Georgia. I know what a racist looks like when I see one, and Donald Trump is not a racist,” Cain said, according to The Hill.

It’s one of the few things progressives have left to throw at Trump, but if polls are any indication, not many people are buying the notion that Trump is racist.

Which is why being racist is an accusation that the left needs to constantly repeat. They need uninformed voters to believe that Trump is racist to get Hillary Clinton in the White House.

I’m in on that. Would set him up nicely for the run for the presidency.

true!

Trump showed more respect for the only black man in the race by standing behind with Ben Carson when all the other candidates walked right on past him.

I remember that so well....and my immediate thought was, “There stands two great men that will never get the credit they deserve, except by the LORD ALMIGHTY HIMSELF.” I think it was Jeb Bush, who almost knocked Dr. Carson over in his race to get on the stage. How pathetic.

...and a fat, stuttering and screeching old hag from Chicago - via Arkansas - who has no ankles.

The distinction I make is the infidelity, sure, but if it's in the past it's forgiveable....once. It's the hypocrisy. I have no use for pols who campaign on their strong social conservative values yet don't live them in their personal life.

It's the hypocrisy that gets them in a situation where their votes are manipulated.

Thanks Impala64ssa.

The Progressives have used the term racist on everybody so much that the term is diluted to the point it as little credibility anymore.

Cain was a favorite of mine when he ran for president the last time around and I continue to admire the guy. I don’t think he would be the best fit for VP, but he ought to be in a Trump administration some where.

Trump is an “awwww shucks ducky candidate”. Herman is awesome. He has been clarifying the record for months

[Impala64ssa]

Or, in the case of the Dems and the liberal press/media, they are racists as a group.
As an analogy, the Westboro Baptist"church" with their "G-D hates fags" schtick. According to agents who keep tabs on them, as well as members of the Phelps family, there's good reason to believe that Fred Phelps himself was a closet homosexual.

Herman is a southern gentleman. He doesn’t have the street fighter inside that is needed in this campaign

I love Herman then and now. He was done wrong

[Nifster]

Mine also. He has written a short but excellent book, "The Right Problems: What the President, Congress, and every Candidate Should be Working on." In the chapter titled: "Friends of the Status Quo", he explains very clearly why six different groups really don't want to solve problems:

Republican politicians

Democrat politicians

Political consultants

Lobbyists

Government employees

The political media

In this case, I don’t think TCruz was aware of the gaffe underway.

I’m not at all sure about that. He is a smart guy but his behavior in two diverse stage moments with Ben Carson and Carly Fiorina display a self centered, self-absorbed, uncompassionate individual.

One day he said Trump called and asked him for advice before deciding to run. He told him to be prepared and have his family prepared for all kinds of false personal accusations.

[Yaelle]

Damn straight. We saw Trump on camera for years, promoting PLENTY of black people over whites, and gays over straights. He is NOT racist.

This was an act that struck many of us. Frankly, for this alone Mr. Trump won the debate before ever speaking behind the podium. To see the other candidates rush by the two men was disgusting beyond belief. Mr. Trump is not a racist, he is not waging a war on women, but he is constantly pictured as the demon of society. To see the RNC convention in the rear view mirror I fell will not come soon enough. The RNC has gone off it's rocker in the attempt to bring this man down to their gutter level. In doing so, they have lost so much they might as well take their balls and go home. A PROUD TRUMP SUPPORTER
