Time will tell, deadeyedick of Australia. Just like it did when he wasn’t supposed to be the Republican candidate, wasn’t going to debate Hillary after the p*ssy audio, wasn’t supposed to be President, wasn’t supposed to last a year. Am I right to assume that you didn’t think he would get this far? Interesting. Who were you before you were deadeyedick?

That’s quite slow if you’re entering ‘black’, ‘lynch’ and ‘definition’ as the keywords. Why aren’t you mentioning the specific dictionary? The oxford and Cambridge ones don’t mention the racial historical context. Whilst we’re at it, is the expression ‘lynch mob’ also necessarily racist? Or just ‘lynching’? I’m guessing that it’s only critics of Trump who see this as ‘dog whistle’ racism. I was just tryiong to help as you stated you were incapable of finding it. I simply typed in lynching and within 20 seconds found it and read it. You can do the same. Do you have google? Do you have the name of the dictionary which defines lynching in a solely historical context? I’d like to see that.

I’d suggest that its absurd to be so certain that it’s dog whistle politics. Firstly, the term ‘lynching’ can be legitimately used outside of the racial historical context. Secondly what would be the motivation of using such ‘dog whistle’ politics? Do you think that he inserted that word in order to amuse white supremacists? I find it unlikely. Sure, it Can be, just never really is as the real “ context” it’s now used in is the racial historical one. Motivation? To get his white people constituents to feel like he is being treated unjustly. I doubt his intent was to amuse. More likely to rile up.

Am I right to assume that you didn’t think he would get this far? trump and Clinton had a debate after the Bush tape was released. trump showed who he really was leading up to and the debate: "The Clinton–Trump debates The release of the tape led to a renewed anticipation towards the October 9 debate between Trump and Hillary Clinton, as it would be the first time for each candidate to directly address the controversy. Less than two hours before the debate began, Trump held a surprise press conference in St. Louis with Paula Jones, Kathleen Willey, and Juanita Broaddrick, who have previously accused Bill Clinton of sexual misconduct, and Kathy Shelton, a rape victim whose rapist had been represented in the 1970s by Hillary, an appointed public defender.

Do you have the name of the dictionary which defines lynching in a solely historical context? I’d like to see that. You mentioned you were unable to find any reference to an historical context. I posted that I easily found one in 20 seconds. Now you are requesting a "solely historical context". Are you confused?

Most of the reasonable and some of the unreasonable Repo-Cons left this board within the first year of Trump's presidency. Considering how many of them were vociferous Obama trashers you would have to ask them why they bailed when turnabout became fair play.

Meanwhile I clutch my maroon passport to my chest → not giving that up...

Obama was so sophisticated he was about to send you to war with Russia at the behest of Qatar. Despite all of Trump’s achievements, he could have nothing and still be superior to the guy who sends you to war with Russia. Obama did not send them to war with Russia. If he wanted to do that he would have. You're criticizing him for. A made up thing. Obama supported ‘moderate’ Syrian rebels. Most of those funds and equipment and vehicles went to ISIS. Russia only has two foreign naval bases. One is in the Black Sea. The other and most important one is Tartus, which is in Syria. The point is that Russia’s stake in Syria is infinitely greater than Obama’s was, which was to bring democracy to Syria. Anyone who knows anything about that region knows it isn’t possible, it would have been Iraq in inverse, with a Sunni majority presiding over an Alawite minority. And it wasn’t a moderate Sunni majority. The Alawites would have been supported by Iran, Hezbollah and Iraq. Basically a major insurgency. And Obama was doing that and going into a needless Cold War with Russia to do it. It was stupid.

I wasn't planning on voting for Biden in the Tennessee primary anyway. But at least Bill Clinton wasn't whining about his impeachment being a lynching like trump. CNN: Biden likened Clinton impeachment to 'partisan lynching' in 1998White House hopeful Joe Biden has condemned President Trump for likening the impeachment inquiry to a "lynching," though he made a similar comparison when describing the impeachment investigation against former President Bill Clinton. "Even if the President should be impeached, history is going to question whether or not this was just a partisan lynching or whether or not it was something that in fact met the standard, the very high bar, that was set by the founders as to what constituted an impeachable offense," then-Sen. Biden (D-Del.) said in a 1998 interview with CNN, which was unearthed by CNN’s KFile. CNN: Biden likened Clinton impeachment to 'partisan lynching' in 1998
