It's been almost 4 years since I started this thread, and nobody has posted a shred of evidence that proves Trump is a racist. All I have seen posted are allegations, dismissed cases, gish gallop, secondhand quotes, and propaganda.
Is there evidence that proves Trump is a racist in this propaganda?
its Trump himself.
This is an allegation. An allegation in itself is not evidence that proves Trump is a racist.
video recording of Trump saying racist things is not an allegation.
video recording of Trump saying racist things is evidence.
If Trump said something racist, post it here. Wrap quote marks around what he really did say. If it really is a racist comment, I will vet it by following a link. Posting a link to where you want the evidence to be is not actual evidence. Quote it here for the world to see.
the twitter link is not rendering for you?
As you know, President Trump loves New York as much as he loves America.
Your post is bogus. At the time Trump took out that ad and made those statements the Central Park Five had been arrested, tried, and convicted which highlighted the crime wave in New York. New York was fed up. They had 1,896 murders the year of that assault.
Using that as an indication that President Trump is racist is just plain foolish and confirmation that you have nothing and are grasping at straws.
What did Trump say after they were exonerated?
Trump doesn't apologize to Central Park Five: 'You have people on both sides of that'
"You have people on both sides of that," Trump told reporters, but he did not apologize for taking out an ad calling for the teenagers' executions.www.usatoday.com
The CP5 thing doesn't belong in this thread unless you can produce some evidence that proves that any of Trump's actions or words were racially motivated as opposed to being motivated by disgust for the alleged crime/s.
The poster that I answered asked "what Trump said after they were exonerated", and I answered her.
It is in the link.
However, just to play the devils advocate, if the previous POTUS had made similar remarks that
the soon to be former one has, would you perceive HIM to be racist?
Just curious.
Racism is one of my favorite topics to discuss. One of my passions is differentiating actual racism from the political weapon.
That's obvious. And "racism" is a multi faceted issue.
So, based on that, had the previous POTUS had made similar statements to some of those made by the current one, would you have perceived him as a racist?
Often, lefties will evade the topic of my threads by asking new questions, and then they will accuse me of evading when I don't answer their evasion.
First, your post suggests that you doubt or didn't understand when I said that I enjoy differentiating actual racism from the political weapon. This makes me wonder if YOU are able to do the same.
If the previous president made statements that were racist, I would call it racism. Perhaps you should post an example of what type of statements from Trump you are referring to.

I'm neither left nor right, and don't have any interest in engaging in what is obviously an intentionally circular(as the thread title proves) debate as to whether or not a soon to be former president is a "racist".
I asked you a very simple question which would tell whether you truthfully, as you claim,
"enjoy differentiating actual racism from the political weapon", or if you are just a partisan Trump defender.
Which do you think it is?
Do you have evidence that proves Trump is a racist? Thats what this thread is about. Start a new thread with your topic, and I will post in it.
You made a statement that you "enjoy differentiating actual racism from the political weapon".
The question asked of you related to your above statement.
So it appears that you agree that this thread is an example of a circular discussion.
Since your thread title is:
"Trump is Not a Racist", you obviously had established your position before anyone even replied.
Here is the opening post where I asserted that Trump is not a racist, and then challenged you to show me otherwise:
"I have never read or heard anything that Trump has ever said that is racist, yet I have seen lefties imply that he is. I assert that Trump is not a racist, but I will retract this if somebody could post a link to an actual quote of Trump saying something racist. I have seen plenty of allegations that Trump said things that are racist, but never an actual verifiable legitimate quote. Anybody got a link to such a quote?"
Well, that is the basis of a circular, partisan argument.
Perhaps you should identify some examples of what YOU believe to be racist statements.
Until you do, it is obvious that you will just claim that any example that anyone provides, will result in you dismissing it because it does not align with whatever your criteria is.
My criteria is simple. Exclude allegations, gish gallop, secondhand quotes, dismissed cases, and propaganda, since these items are not evidence that proves he is a racist. Obviously, racism must include race.
