Donald Trump’s new TV ad: Make America great by keeping the darkies out
Washington Post/The Plum Line blog ^ | Jan. 4, 2016 | Greg Sargent

As the final, frenzied push towards the first presidential voting begins, Donald Trump has unveiled a riveting new television ad that perfectly sums up Trumpism in all its xenophobic glory and also perfectly captures the problem Trumpism has created for the Republican Party.

The ad, which is set to run extensively in Iowa and New Hampshire, has it all. It reiterates his call for a temporary ban on Muslims entering the United States, and links this directly to the need to combat radical Islamic terrorism. It also again vows to stop illegal immigration by building a wall on our southern border that Mexico will pay for. All of this leads up to the grand conclusion, in which Trump himself vows to make America great again.

But heres something notable: Trumps spot looks very much like the heavily-immigration-themed ads run by California Governor Pete Wilson in the 1990s. Wilson helped secure passage of the infamous Proposition 187, which sought to bar illegal immigrants from a range of state services and is widely believed to have driven Latinos away from the California GOP and set it on a path into the demographic wilderness.

Note this footage from the new Trump ad showing dark hordes breaching the border:

The MSM conveniently leaves out the fact that the Clintoon and Obummer administrations hired very few “darkies” as compared to the Bush administration. Bush was very pro-”darkie” (using the title’s phrasing) while Obummer surrounds himself with white syncophants. Just what has Obama done for “darkie” Americans? Nothing. What he does is import voters to keep his party in power.

I love the ad. Perfect. It gets the message out and retaliation from the media, a two-fer.

The hate-whitey campaign of the Left marches on.

Dear Greag,

It ain’t work’in! No matter what you guys (and I use the term loosely) at the Compost print, you can’t take the Donald down. We know you’re frustrated that nothing seems to be sticking - but it sure is fun to watch you try!

The Dems must be losing chunks of the black vote...this thing is written in such a way as to alarm blacks rather than muslims... muslims after all, come in all colors, not just “dark.”

He’s just preaching to his choir. Not as if he’s changing anyone’s mind with that choice of words.

Pete Wilson was a hero for getting Prop 187 passed. A Federal judge was a traitor for —in my opinion, unlawfully — striking it down. The people did nothing to push back, and a huge massive new flood of illegals began, which will inevitably turn California into Mexico.

Seems to me that the washington post injected the racism into the equation. Trump never said "darkies" he said muslims.

Most entities that trumpet "racism" either strain credibility by finding it where it doesn't exist or put it there themselves.

I’m sure there is no guard desk at the Washington Post, and random strangers can mill in and out as they want.

And I’m sure the author has removed all locks to his house.

Vile was the first word that popped into my mind, too. The Washington Post is a vile, leftist interest group pretending to be a legitimate media outlet. They should have to claim their expenses as democrat political donations.

“Make America great by keeping the darkies out”?????

And I suppose this writer thinks it’s OK for him to write that?

“Note this footage from the new Trump ad showing dark hordes breaching the border”

Dark hordes breaching the border are not to be video taped? Where is this mandated outside the stylebook of the WashPost?

Before we go after the illegals, we need to go after peoplelike this “journalist.”
