Paul, No surprise a person such as yourself doesn't consider the recent two day Trump tweet storm as being racial in any way. Not even the "Go back to the country you came from". The extremist rightwing fringe fascists have always seemed delusional to me.

The extremist rightwing fringe fascists have always seemed delusional to me. Looking at 4 non-white women and saying "Go back to the country you came from" is extremely racist, although Trump's ass-lickers will never admit that. If you're not white, you can't be American.

like I say, they don't recognize it as racism. they are being far more generous than brown folks that have been dealing with that shit since they were kids.

Most posters seem to understand what racist tweets look like.
You're one of the few mired in confusion about that word.

So this is coming straight from the federal government directives from EEOC -
Harassment Based on National Origin Ethnic slurs and other verbal or physical conduct because of nationality are illegal if they are severe or pervasive and create an intimidating, hostile or offensive working environment, interfere with work performance, or negatively affect job opportunities. Examples of potentially unlawful conduct include insults, taunting, or ethnic epithets, such as making fun of a person's foreign accent or comments like, "Go back to where you came from, " whether made by supervisors or by co-workers.
This is concerning workplace situations.
But if this doesn't clarify anything to Trump supporters, then they are an absolute sad lost cause....

You are so right telling them to go back to America's Greatest Shithole Cities,, Fix things there first... Glad to see that you upset for them, With the exception of Omar About having to go back to those SHITHOLE Citiies,,
Drugs, murder, homelessness,, starving kids,, And as Trump said Fix the problems there first,, then come back!!!! I can see you all right now,,, running in circles,,, your fingers in your ear's screaming Laaa Laaa Laaaa Laaaa!! DID any one watch the video on the Socialist city of Seattle showing the homeless,, drug problem where the police have been instructed to stand down!!! I didn't think so you are still running in circles! Instead of laaa laaa laaa laaa,,, it is Trump,, Trump,, Trump,, Trump!!!!

The song “You’ve Got to be Carefully Taught” from South Pacific, written in 1949:
You’ve got to be taught to hate and fear/you’ve got to be taught from year to year/its got to be drummed in your dear little ear, you’ve got to be carefully taught.
You’ve got to be taught to be afraid of people whose eyes are oddly made and people whose skin is a different shade, you’ve got to be carefully taught.
You’ve got to be taught before it’s too late/before you are six or seven or eight/to hate all the people your relatives hate/you’ve got to be carefully taught.

Like a bunch here think that removing a stature will rewrite history,,,
Yes we now removed that stature,,
So now we will never need to bring up the Civil War and what it was over,,,, Oh wait, are we going to be selective on what is brought up,,, Like censorship??

I see it this way: The people of the constituencies represented by ANY Representative have the right to vote for and elect the individual they feel best represents them, just as I have a right to do the same. That's how this country works.

Seattle is a very vibrant capitalist city with companies such as Starbucks, Microsoft, Amazon, Costco and on and on that have a worldwide footprint. Anyone that calls Seattle a socialist city is ill informed. There has been s steady relocation of homeless camps by the authorities for years.
Drugs...I just heard a report about the 70 billion opioids that have been sold in America. That's big pharma and the folks they support in the Repo-Con party killing Americans.
Do something about THAT OC.

Have you ever noticed when trump holds a rally, plenty of blonde women are strategically place either in front of the crowds or behind him when he 'speaks'. trump's message heard loud and clear. Political Peroxide Blonde privilege.

So you pick some stupid random person to compare to the President of the United States. Seriously, if you honestly do not think he tweet was racist, who are you trying to convince? Or are you trying to convince yourself?

Yep, if they did go fix the problems there,,,,, That would be Making America Great Again.. But, We sure as hell don't want to do that.

Or replace a racist tweet with misogyny. Calling them little girls is offensive.
