Subj : What happened? To : Dale Shipp From : Lee Lofaso Date : Sun Aug 11 2019 03:30:49 Hello Dale, >>DS>It is not because he is a white male, but the >>DS>fact that he denigrates >>DS>anyone who is not a white male is another factor. > >BA>I've never heard him do that. But note that I only watch about eight >BA>hours of television a week and that only because I'm literally tied to >BA>the television. > >Then you have not been paying attention. Many others do. And take him quite seriously. >Start with his response to Charlotsville two years ago when a white >nationalist killed a woman and injured others, all the while when the >white nationalists were marching chanting hate slogans. His reponse was >"there are good people on both sides", nothing to condemn what the white >nationalists were doing. Are you calling Donald Trump a white supremacist? At least eight Democrats who are running for president are, so you would not be the first. Of course, Trump denies it all, claiming he is not a white supremacist, and says it is a disgrace for anybody to call him that. >Continue through almost all of his campaign rallies, before and after >election when he touted the theme of invasion from the south by Mexicans >and other hispanics, calling them rapists and murderers. How does that make him a white supremacist? Just because those rapists and murderers happen to be black or brown does not necessarily make him a white supremacist. I mean, I am sure he condemns the acts of all rapists and murderers, regardless of the color of their skin. Just like that white dude who killed eight Mexicans in El Paso. >DS>His talk has >DS>contributed to white nationalistic hate crimes. > >BA>Hatred is not limited to "white nationalists." Listen to any leftist >BA>- including several candidates for president - talking about Donald >BA>Trump. > >Yes, they are speaking out about him and his policy -- often with fervor >and distain. But they are not inciting riots and murder. No president can control the acts of others. And certainly not that of a single individual who is probably insane. >DS>The shooter in El Paso >DS>quoted him directly as part of the justification for what was >DS>done there. > >BA>There is no justification for what was done there > >Of course not, but nevertheless -- that is what he said. Again, how does that make Donald Trump a white supremacist? While he is clearly playing to a crowd, that does not mean he is hoping any of them go off the rails and conduct mass shootings of black and brown people. --Lee -- We Make Your Wet Dreams Come True --- MesNews/1.08.05.00-gb * Origin: - nntp://rbb.fidonet.fi - Lake Ylo - Finland - (2:221/360) .
