Bob face the facts… Trump is a racist and the disturbing fact that so many people are willfully ignoring that has emboldened hate groups. They may not be racists but by supporting Trump they are supporting racism.
At this point, after the countless examples of the current denizen of the White House’s racism, greed, hatred, and incompetence, anyone willing to suspend their disgust, is disgusting.
Gorrell forgets most terrorists in this country are white christians. Gorrell also forgets to mention that supporting Trump means supporting his ideology of racism, bigotry, misogyny, homophobia, transphobia, child abduction, and sadism.
I was looking at the terrorism statistics and they were saying the white nationalist types try a lot more actions but they also fail a lot and get arrested and that lowers their reportable success rate.
Not all Muslims are terrorists, but those who support or excuse IS, Al Qaeda, or other terrorists may also reasonably be considered terrorists… in intent, if not in action.
Not all Americans/Republicans/whatever are racists, but those who support or excuse racists may also reasonably be considered racist… in intent, if not in action. Trump has demonstrated his support for and excusing of racists, therefore he may reasonably be considered a racist. And so, the same may reasonably be said of those who support or excuse Trump’s displays of racism.
Gorrell: I watch the news a lot. I’ve yet to see one pundit or reporter say that “all Trump supporters are racists”. Can you find me one? I don’t mean some loony person you find on the Internet. I mean someone who is a serious commentator. I suppose coming up with something that’s true to base a cartoon on is more difficult to do than making up an opponent to attack. Straw men are easy to create. But, really, it’s not very insightful to refute a position that no serious person holds.

Should Gorrell’s logic lead him to conclude that #45 is a racist?

Not all Trump supporters are racist.
But racism isn’t a deal breaker for those who aren’t.
And that’s just as bad.

Funny. Gorrell treats every extreme left wing loony as a representative of all liberals, yet complains when the shoe is on the other foot.

Gorrell Logic: If one liberal says “Because a few Trump supporters are racist, all Trump supporters are racist”, then all liberals say that too.

Anyone who supports the Rump’s behaviors, gives tacit approval to his racism. Deny it all you want, but that kind of makes them racists.

If you go along with it, if you condone it, if you don’t say something against, you’re a racist.
The days of just looking the other way are over. It’s time for all of us to take a good long look in the mirror.

Just because a few right wingers are terrorists, it encourages others to be intolerant.
• 106 individuals were killed by far-right violent extremists in 62 separate incidents;
• 119 individuals were killed by radical Islamist violent extremists in 23 separate incidents;

The fundamental point is that Trump himself is a racist. That’s demonstrable. Next question?
