Salon's Marcotte: Big Turnout for Trump's July 4th Speech Due to Racism
Newsbusters ^ | July 5 , 2019 | P.J. Gladnick

Posted on 07/06/2019 4:35:04 AM PDT by PJ-Comix

Unlike many of her fellow leftists, such as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez who despite the visual evidence absurdly claimed that the July 4 speech by President Donald Trump was "poorly attended," Salon politics writer Amanda Marcotte admitted the truth about the size of the large crowd. However, while conceding the evidence was true, Marcotte rationalized it by claiming the big turnout was due to..... racism.

You could tell where Marcotte's fantasies were leading just by reading the subtitle of her article, "Don't forget this: Trump's fans are loyal, and stuck with him through his Fourth of July fiasco": "The grim determination of Trump's crowd was more terrifying than any Nuremberg-style spectacle could have been."

Just like the Russian collusion lies the racism claim is more of the same.

Yep, Americans must once again step forward and vote democrat to prove to the democrats that they are not racists.

“Not a racist” is now America’s only value according to democrats.

But 0bama’s rallies full of cult worshipers were just fine.

Hypocrisy of the left.

What she really needs to do is stop lying to herself and the world, it truly is disgusting.

It appears her aesthetics will prevent her from being buried with her ancestors. The price of delusion.

More of those Jewish Nazis like Dennis Prager and Ben Stein, no doubt.

The Left is full of fecal matter.

Then it’s good to know there are so many racists in America. Maybe they can provide the counterbalance to all the SJWs, BLMs, and antifa bigots who are driving us off a cliff.

The MSM reminds of a little game we played as kids many years ago.

We would make up blatant and obvious "LIE" stories just to see who could out do one another.

The MSM media is on the very same trajectory since Trump became POTUS. They fabricate some of the most unbelievable bull$hit I've ever heard.

If that pic in post #5 is supposed to be P.J. Gladnick, the author of the story, I'm sorry to say.. that looks like a MAN DRESSED as a WOMAN.

Had to get out the Visine after viewing that.

Exactly what I told my wife on Thursday. Fox panned the crowd and worked to make sure you only saw white people. My exact comment was, ‘I can hear MSNBC right now. Look nothing but White people, playing host to his white supremacist base on July 4th, a day that belongs to all Americans.’ Later we watched the Capitol Fourth on PBS and they went out of their way to find every person of color in the crowd to put the camera on. Without a word the point was made. America is a tapestry of people of all colors, but not Trump supporters, they’re all white racists.

Not Gladnick. That’s the person Gladnick was excoriating, Ms Mercotte.

Checked her twitter. She wrote how imperative it is the Left understand Trump supporters in order to win. Next tweeted this:

“The grim truth is that 42% of Americans know exactly who Trump is: A white supremacist, a sexual predator who is likely a rapist, and an all-around a******. And they love him anyway. Not despite it. Because of it.”

Thus, we win in 2020 again.
