Life is short. So, don’t waste it trying to prove President Trump is a racist, a bigot or a white supremacist.
“If You Don’t Know Me by Now,” the rhythm-and-blues song by Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes, is instructive. If by now minds haven’t been made up about Trump’s repugnant racism and religious intolerance, nothing said or done from this moment on will make a difference.
The sad truth is that with all that Trump has said and done, millions of Americans don’t see where he has ever crossed the line.
Slurring Mexican immigrants as criminals and rapists? Calling for a ban on all Muslims coming into the country? Suggesting that a U.S.-born judge overseeing a Trump University lawsuit should recuse himself because of his Mexican heritage (“He’s a Mexican,” Trump said)?

Tweeting that four black and brown members of Congress — three of them born in the United States — should “go back” to their countries of origin?

The answer might be found in an interview that NBC affiliate WWBT in Richmond conducted during the 2016 presidential campaign with a man identified only as the “Imperial Wizard of the Rebel Brigade of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan.” Declaring his support for Republican candidate Trump, the imperial wizard said: “The reason a lot of Klan members like Donald Trump is because a lot of what he...

Don’t waste your breath trying to convince Trump supporters he’s repugnant
Don’t kill a tree by reading the WP
‘Don’t waste your breath trying to convince anti-Trump supporters they’re repugnant and UPOS.’
I do hope who or whatever “Colbert I. King” is, he/she/it gets depressed enough when Trump wins again to leap off the nearest pier.
Funny, we could say the same sort of thing(s) regarding Hillary or Kamala or Bernie, etc..
They’re right about one thing: Americans don’t see where he has ever crossed the line.
It’s the liberals, not the Americans, who dreamt up the imaginary “lines.”
“Don’t kill a tree…”
I choose to kill a dinosaur and read it on line.
Smaller carbon footprint.
I am not going to waste my time reading the half truths, innuendos, and outright lies written in the Washington Post.
Why should we believe anything these people say after lying about Trump being a Russian spy?
See my tagline. :-)
Truth dies at the Washington Post.
It seems to be unfortunately evident that there is going to be a Civil War in this country. The Left are completely rabid and unhinged. They seem to be completely divorced from reality.
Also, don’t waste your breath trying to convince journalists not to lie
The Bezos Gazette is repugnant.
What was the name of Herr Goebbel’s press officer? Answer: Washington Post. One huge lie after the next, repeated endlessly.
Kong again defamed all of us with his disgusting context shedding and sweeping condemnations.
He’s a repugnant racist, but he hires lots of blacks who are qualified. He’s religious intolerant, but he has prayer meeting, etc.
No interest in the perpetually free-flowing racism of the Washington Post. May their newsroom be the site of the next high profile “tragedy”.
Probably has more glbtqprxyz folks on his payroll than most of the ‘proponents’ have. If you can do the job, you’re hired. If you can’t do the job, you’re fired. Pretty simple rule.
