If the Trump era has taught us anything, it's that large numbers of white people in the United States are motivated at least in part by racism in the voting booth. Donald Trump ran an openly racist campaign for president, calling Mexicans rapists and criminals, regularly retweeting white supremacists and at least initially balking at repudiating former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke.
Trump made it clear in his campaign that "Make America Great Again" meant that America was greater when white people's power was more sweeping and more secure. White voters approved of that message by a whopping 58 To 37 percent.
Some politicians deny the evidence, no doubt because they don't want to alienate white voters, including prejudiced ones. Other commentators try to parse whether Trump's racism will be a winning strategy in 2020. Terry Smith, visiting professor at the University of Baltimore School of Law, offers a different response in his new book, "Whitelash: Unmasking White Grievance at the Ballot Box."
Rather than excuse racist voters or try to figure out how to live with their choices, he argues that racist voting is not just immoral, but illegal. The government, Smith says, has the ability, and the responsibility, to address it.

A war is not necessary if there are guerrilla actions that wipe out Comcast, all NBC stations, cable sources of MSNBC and all that is Comcast including corporate officers and their families
Yellow journalism from a bunch of Communist agitators.
NBC is fake news. Put some more rocket engines onto gas tanks and shoot some more fake videos NBC.
The Klan always did want to keep black people from voting Republican.
Needs a barf alert.

While obviously not mentioned in the article, hidden within the writer’s frustration is proof the radical left is evolving inextricably toward Gulags as the solution to deal with the ignorant racist American public.
NBC has an FCC license. Knock them off the air.
How in the hell can they possibly know the motivation of voters? Even if they could, our First Amendment allows us to have “racist” thoughts, just like they can think of Trump supporters as neanderthals and “deplorables.”
The author, Terry Smith, is a real piece of work...Suing or sued DePaul University...They want to fire him for incivility, bullying (pushing too hard on diversity in the schools law school), and he is suing for...you guessed it, bullying and racism...

First couple paragraphs...
Professor Terry Smith, an African-American labor law and voting rights scholar, is seeking $3 million in damages in a civil rights lawsuit filed against the law dean Jennifer Rosato Perea, former DePaul president Rev. Dennis H. Holtschneider and the university in February 2018.
Smith’s lawyer argued before a federal judge that the university should discontinue its ongoing attempt to terminate Smith for what it describes as a pattern of bullying and harassment until the suit is resolved. Eric Rumbaugh, who is representing DePaul in the case, argued that the school should not have to wait to move forward with firing Smith because his continuing “incivility” is an “existential threat” to the law school.
Notable that this comes not from some fringe left-wing website but from NBC FREAKING NEWS!!!
Dear Mindless bigots at NBC
The same voters that elected Obama 2x did not magically turn racists by electing Trump.
You choice to publish this vile racist bigot’s screed completely discredits you as a “News” organization and exposes you as just another racist hate group.
Please direct us to the text in the Constitution that authorizes leftists to disenfranchise white people who vote for candidates they don’t like.
Everything else that comes out of the damn' thing is just f'n stupid.
Good point. However, would that not be war? Right now, we are certainly in a Cold Civil War.
I’ve just about had it with these people.

What utter horse sh8
The logic must be that the new entrants to the labor force are not getting a living wage. They've been tricked into volunteer slavery by Whitey (and Asians, too).
Who has been fighting for equal rights for minorities? That’s right, white lawyers.
This is who the Guardian says this faggot is:
Noah Berlatsky
Noah Berlatsky is the author of Wonder Woman: Bondage and Feminism. He edits the comics and culture site the Hooded Utilitarian and is a contributing writer for the Atlantic.
[Same guy?]
Actually you are wrong.
NBC is Comcast and exists as a propaganda outlet of the progressives. The “fake” is actually a propaganda message.
The Comcast goal is destruction of the American state and replacement with a European socialist government
Comcast must be eradicated as salvation for America
I’m an American and I support Trump. The more the; media, Hollyweird, Demoncrats talk, the more American I feel. What is NBC even talking about. These people are truly insane.
