It is so hilarious to think that repubs are now the savior...
This stuff is all pretty transparent. These folks are well aware of the sins of the modern-day Right (many of them no doubt participate, most of them enable it), so they're working overtime to deflect. Their current favored tactic is to bring up history. Fooling absolutely no one.
So now we have both the Regressive SJW Left and the Trumpster Right spraying the term "racism" around like water in an obvious effort to avoid looking in the mirror. How similar the two ends can be in their behaviors.
No honest conversation on race will take place in this country unless and until those two groups are recognized as the problem and marginalized.
Correct, no honest discussion on race will occur until you are honest enough to admit that the country, as a whole, is not racist, that Trump is PROVABLY not racist, and that your entire belief system is flawed.
Trump had charges filed by the Justice Department alleging racial bias at his family’s real-estate company back in the 70's
"He said, 'Well, I'm only doing what my boss told me to do — I am not allowed to rent to black tenants, This was said by the apt manager. It was a case that charges Donald Trump, Fred Trump and their company of race bias in housing rentals
In the end they settle with no admission of guilt but they had take certain measures such as placing adds in the paper saying that they welcomed black people etc. Yet for 2 years he fought the case only to in the end take the deal . 3 years later the government said that he had breached the consent decree. Trump dragged the case on until eventually the decree ended at a certain point in time.
In his last act as Trump’s attorney general, Jeff Sessions issued a memorandum curtailing enforcement programs and consent decrees across the board when it comes to discrimination.
Another incident which showed his racism was when he placed ads in the paper calling for the execution of five young black and Latino men accused of rape, who were later shown to be innocent . He acted as judge, jury and proposed execution before they were even found guilty by a court of law of a crime.
His bandwagon approach to Obama not being a citizen. Making accusation based on no credible evidence that he was not a citizen other than right wing stories. Still talking about the birth certificate after Obama had left office as if it matters after he left office.
