White supremacists and racists love the guy and say he has caused a resurgence in their ranks.

Now, in Iowa, we see that Trump’s bigotry is spreading to high school basketball games. It’s ugly and infuriating.

Dallas Center-Grimes High School in Des Moines is predominantly white. After their basketball team, which appeared also to be predominantly white, lost to Perry High School, fans began chanting “Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump” at the opposing players — many of who were Latino.

Or having all Dodgers wear #42 on their sleeves, or playing basketball games all day on TV on MLK day, and having MLK patches on all uniforms, or Black History Month, or Black Studies programs in college, or Black Student Unions, or Black Dorms, or a BET channel on TV, or Congressional Black Caucus that spurns Mia Love and calls Clarence Thomas Uncle Tom, and Condi Rice Aunt Jemima?
Chanting Trump more racist than that? On what planet?

Since when is shouting the name of Trump considered racist. If they were shouting Obama, then it would be OK?

Of course.

If you support Trump, you are a racist. If you do not support Obama, you are a racist.

See the difference?

OK, simply saying the word “Trump” is racist.
The whole debate about racism has gone past real issues, real hate, the dreams of MLK, the black ancestors that were ACTUALLY oppressed and has just become downright comical.

at least two generations have never heard of David Duke - who has been banned from the airwaves since the 90s

Not true. The media digs him up nearly every election to try and get him to endorse a Republican so they can report it.

The fact that Trump has demonstrated the insanity of “political correctness,” is driving those who have depended upon that insane mindset to stifle dissent against the diversity cult that has led to the open border, harassment of local police, and many other aberrations; to go into an absolute panic mode. This obviously absurd interpretation of youth rallying to Trump merely reflects that the Left is foundering!

Consider the argument that Trump is a living Metaphor For American Conservatism.

At a neighboring HS, during the duelling fan sections “We’ve got spirit, yes we do, we’ve got spirit, how ‘bout YOU?” routine, the (ethnic) section was out-yelling (and winning the game) the white section. That’s when the white section began chanting: “We pay taxes, yes we do, we pay taxes, how ‘bout YOU?”
Well, it was all over the paper next day, and the school felt compelled to have a racial-sensitivity assembly the following week.
But it was funny, I must say.

On a little bit lighter note, at another neighboring HS, the white students were heard to reply: “We’ve got blondes, yes we do; we’ve got blondes, how ‘bout YOU?”
Also quite funny (but not well-received by the educrats).

“Predominately” white? I live a mile away from Grimes in Johnston and I’m pretty certain DCG is all white. Wait... does that include latinos and Asians? I forget when it applies since blacks lump latinos and Asians in with whites when it is convenient.

I’ve got to give it to Trump. He’s taken Palin Derangement Syndrome to the next level.

That’s a great point. But has he actually been on tv?

Why didn’t Trump categorically disallow this group.

You’re right, it won’t work. First they tried to paint him as anti immigrant. Then anti muslim. Then he was anti women. Now he’s a kkk supporter. I can’t believe republicans are using the same tactics. Why is everyone so shocked at Trump’s support? If you’re not a member of some etnic or cause group, this is not your country. People are sick of it. Teaching white students on universities to shame themselves. Having a low class reverse racism oscar show. Well, we all want a voice now. And so far trump is the only one who stepped up to the plate.
