Donald Trump is a bigot and a racist

Let’s not mince words: Donald Trump is a bigot and a racist.

Some will think this an outrageous label to apply to the frontrunner for a major party’s presidential nomination. Ordinarily, I would agree that name-calling is part of what’s wrong with our politics.

But there is a greater imperative not to be silent in the face of demagoguery. Trump in this campaign has gone after African Americans, immigrants, Latinos, Asians, women, Muslims and now the disabled. His pattern brings to mind the famous words of Martin Neimoller, the pastor and concentration camp survivor (“First they came for the socialists…”) that Ohio Gov. John Kasich adroitly used in a video last week attacking Trump’s hateful broadsides.

Since then, Trump led the "birther" movement challenging President Obama's standing as a natural-born American;

Um, no. That "honor" belongs to the lunatic attention whore.

Wow, what a bad person Trump is!

Why can't he be an honorable person like the murdering, immoral criminal the DemonRats are running.

Remember, bigots love, not loathe, their own.

The difference between Socialism and Racism.......

A young black kid asks his mother, "Mama, what is Socialism and what is Racism?"

"Well, Child,... Socialism is when white folks work every day so we can get all our stuff, you know... like our free cell phones for each family member, rent subsidy, food stamps, EBT, WIC, free school lunch, free healthcare, utility subsidy, and on and on, ...you know.
That's Socialism."

"But, mama, don't the white people get pissed off about that?"

"Sure they do, Honey. That's called Racism."

His next article will condemn the name-calling and divisiveness in politics, especially towards the White House.

"Hillary Clinton is a sexist."

. . . . and a leftist, and a material dialecticist (Marxist), and a humanist, and offensive to traditional Christian families and our values, . . . .

Barack Hussein Obama is a bigot and a racist.

Donald Trump is telling the truth.

Of course, the Left screams “bigot” and “racist,” and demands a “safe space,” whenever someone presents incontrovertible facts.

They have no idea how tired the vast majority of Americans have become of those tired, worn out political labels.

Yep! I'm a Christian, White American male. Call me whatever you want, I don't care anymore. I'm sick of seeing my country sold out to un-American, anti-American interests and I'm not going to be quiet about it anymore.
