    Reread these quotes. I thought the whole thing was idiotic but don't see what it changes.
    Focus on unnecessarily. I don't know what would possess him to say that there. He couldn't think he was saying something racist to those vets. Why would he do that if he did?

    This still doesn't change anything, just proves that he has little if any ability to read the room so to speak. Or pick his spots....whatever. He clearly hasn't got an adviser that he'll listen to.

    He's lacking a Big Man Coach if you will.

    Most of us are part Native? Not sure what you even mean by that.

    Who is "us"? :dunno:

    I am 100% Native American, and damn proud of America. :cheers:

    Better yet, quit pretending you're right (your usual fallback position) and just google it. She lied about it on 3 employment applications (an EOO crime in most states) that she was an Indian and she got all three jobs. On all three jobs she openly bragged about being Indian and then used the lie to get elected to the Senate. Her lies meant a Real American Indian didn't get those jobs, hope they got something else and didn't suffer because of her greed and dishonesty.

    She's a horrible person who should never be allowed to have power over others, and I look forward to other lying swamp-rats being called out by President Trump in the future. We elected him to drain the swamp, and that's what he's doing.

    I usually am right, so it's not a bad fallback position.

    In this case as in most, you fail to provide any evidence whatsoever, while making at least one claim that is provably false, and others that aren't provable one way or the other.

    You don't actually know whether Warren has any native blood or not. Nobody does, probably not even her.
    You don't actually know whether Warren ever listed herself as native on a job applications, because the only ones that have been made public she was listed as white.
    The provably false claim is that she used her native heritage to get elected to the Senate. Actually the opposite is true, Scott Brown brought it into the race and used it as a club to beat her with (she won anyway).

    I guess if you are a nihilist, it makes no difference? Pol Pot or an iguana would be good presidents too?

    Iguana/FidgetSpinner 2020! Because nothing matters.

    Wasn't the point. Haven't said he's been a good President. At this point everything he does becomes traumatic for someone. The point it what is the constant bitching about him doing?

    Not much. Now they'll slip this tax plan through and probably fuck most of us over. While Pocahontas is the topic for everyone.

    Ok, but that's not the question you asked. The question you asked was what difference does it make if he's a gigantic racist.

    That's a different question than 'what's the point of complaining that he's a gigantic racist'?

    I'll ask again, what difference does it make? We know it is true? Is Mueller going to indict him for being a racist?

    My question is apt, what difference does it make?

    Especially now to start a thread about something he just repeated that he'd already said before. The only new info is how staggeringly tone deaf he is and when and where he said it.

    gotta go to bed. was watching this video after thinking about some Public Enemy. I think the lyric I'm thinking of is about Farrakhan but I believe this dude is the real guy to learn about first.

    The reason I decided to watch this stuff is I literally have less of an idea about this ideology than I do the conservative Christians. It is going to take some time and I don't know that I will continue.

    I literally don't know what the black community wants. I don't think I ever will.

    Dviss is like the Shaun king of this forum but actually black. The Tariq nasheed. You actively look to be outraged by non issues and pull the race card on it. Did you know that most native Americans don’t even give a fuck about the Washington redskins name?

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/loca...38753295f9a_story.html?utm_term=.e9a178e1f273

    This is where we start to get in dangerous territory as a nation. When this outrage shit happens for no reason. I don’t care for trump but what I do care for is young kids in this country and their future and this bullshit constant race card pulling and “everything is racist, I’m outraged” shit is gonna be the end of freedom of speech. Fucking get your priorities straight and maybe choose your battles wisely with actual racist shit, not this petty stupid shit. It’s a non issue.

    Trump is a racist ignorant imbecile. Can't have a moment without him opening his mouth and spewing some stupid shit. He is an embarassment to our country, the world, and himself. The best part of him ran down his mamas leg.

    Native American's have expressed that they feel insulted by Trump's words, and that what he said was racist and demeaning.

    I didn't see a video of this. Every quote I've read ended with "you know what, I like you"

    Just read this story https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cb...ericans-respond-to-trumps-pocahontas-comment/

    I've found the most offensive part if this story is accurate.

    According to this it is "I like you, you're special"

    That's the part that would offend me. Makes it sound like they are all inferior unless they do something special.

    Edit. Just watched it....... Dumb thing to say. At least it seems to have gotten Keith Olbermann to quit. Keith looks ill. Says he isn't...doubt it.
