Rob Reiner: Trump Represents Last ‘Fight of the Civil War’
Breitbart ^ | November 15, 2016 | Pam Key

Posted on 11/15/2016 2:48:57 PM PST by Ciaphas Cain

Monday night in Austin, TX, at the screening for his film “LBJ” in an interview with FOX 7 Austin, liberal actor and director Rob Reiner said the victory of President-elect Donald Trump represents the final fight of the “Civil War.”

Reiner said, “Trump is hanging on to the what I’ve said is it’s the last fight of the Civil War. It’s the last gasp and the last throws of people who are just desperately hanging on to this kind of white nationalism that existed prior to LBJ passing the Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act and all of that.”

Rob Reiner represents the last dying gasp of an idiot stick.

Agree. Calling us racists is like calling proggies intellectuals. Just ain’t so.

Will anyone ask these meatheads for evidence of Trump’s racism?

Unacceptable answers:
* calling out all Lations as rapists (no; only the rapists are rapists)
* waiting a day too long to disavow D. Duke (just no)
* the KKK endorsement (he totally disavowed immediately)
* stopping all Muslim immigrants (no, not RACE-ist, but was clarified anyway to mean extreme vetting from predominant Islamic nations)

...That’s all they got. We need to start calling them out as WHITE BIGOTS. That makes no sense, but neither do they.

You know, an interesting thing to do is to go on the IMDB site’s page for “All in the Family” and there I believe is a discussion thread concerning who in your opinion was the most annoying character on the show. A great many found Mike to be the most as they thought him very rude and arrogant towards Archie and the others in many instances, even if they did not necessarily share Archie’s opinions on things.

Exactly, and it has for a long time. I remember when I was in college in the 90’s when this PC crap started and I said the same thing then. Call me insensitive, racist, bigot, whatever I will never let someone else dictate what words I can use, or what they mean, or care what they choose to call me. I will speak the truth and if they want to throw down, then so be it.

“prior to LBJ passing the Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act and all of that”

You mean prior to the Republican party passing those bills over the objections of LBJ’s Democrat party, and then LBJ reluctantly signing them into law, I think.

Lots of Hollywood morons manage to make good films. I think it’s that whole left brain/right brain divide. Just because you have creative genius doesn’t mean you have enough critical thinking skills to tie your own shoelaces.

The Civil Rights Act was a Republican effort, fought by the Rats at every turn with their KKK minions.

Many other identities share the ‘whites’ values, economically.

Asians and Hispanics and recent African immigrants.

So stop with the race card, it’s about socialism. It’s about those who want to take care of ourselves vs. those who want to be taken care of.

Reiner said, “Trump is hanging on to the what I’ve said is it’s the last fight of the Civil War. It’s the last gasp and the last throws of people who are just desperately hanging on to this kind of Western style individual liberties.”

If the political means of fighting for our Constitution should fail, well, Rob will then find out about Civil War.

Rob Reiner has always been a pathetic idiot, why should he change now.
