He's taken to spinning facts ala slate and vox.

Everything isn't racist.

I know this might be shocking to you but racist people tend to be.........racist. I posted one of his earlier posts, pretty blatant. Like I said, you can ask him anytime here in this thread. You won't. No guessing is needed, if you really, truly want to know, simply ask him. I know what he meant.

Trump just reset this to 0.......again

with this tweet

Disproven and paid for by Democrats “Dossier used to spy on Trump Campaign. Did FBI use Intel tool to influence the Election?” @foxandfriends Did Dems or Clinton also pay Russians? Where are hidden and smashed DNC servers? Where are Crooked Hillary Emails? What a mess!
Donald J. Trump‏Verified account @realDonaldTrump 9h9 hours ago

Then he tweeted this talking about Walmart
Great news, as a result of our TAX CUTS & JOBS ACT!

but left out this:
Walmart is abruptly closing 63 Sam's Club stores and laying off thousands of workers

So Trump is also confused on FISA. Tweeting one thing, different from the admin stance.

Confused genius.

Trump attacks protections for immigrants from ‘shithole’ countries in Oval Office meeting

“Why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here?” Trump said, according to these people, referring to African countries and Haiti. He then suggested that the United States should instead bring more people from countries like Norway, whose prime minister he met yesterday.

While WAPO, CNN and the alphabet networks were enthralled with how many cokes President Trump "reportedly" drinks in one day and the false but accurate stories from a man who didn't bother to interview the President or his staff..

Congress voted against the Amash amendment that would require the Gov to get a warrant before uncovering Americans spied on with FISA warrants.

Thanks for nothing.

Verified by multiple sources.

And Bannon was staff.

Yeah.. I read it was confirmed too. One out of a dozen.

Yep, all over the place now, trending -

Both Dems and Repubs condemning the remarks.

How would we get more people from Norway anyway, kidnap them? They have free healthcare, nice standard of living etc.

Some things about Norway:
Universal healthcare
Paid family leave
Shorter work weeks
More vacation time
Incredible education system

Just look at what's happening to Europe by allowing tons of people from shithole countries. Wish we had several Trumps around here.

 

[mr-x]

Haiti as most of the countries in Africa are shit-holes, hence peoples desire to leave.

None of this is racist.

Dump cancelled his trip to the U.K. and blamed it on Obama???

Bullsh*t. He knows he's not going to have his koolaid drinking fan base there..
Biggest. Snowflake. Ever. LOL!

The best part of the "sh*thole" story was when he said we should take more immigrants from Norway. News Flash: nobody in Norway wants to come here. They have universal health care and one of the highest standards of living in the world.

 

[mr-x]

Maybe skipping UK to avoid scene of large protest after his last comments about African countries.

RE: Norway.. they eat fermented fish.. what do they know = )

 

[mr-x]

Does Dick Durbin really think Americans are so sensitive the word "chain" makes them depressed?

When we've all recovered from the shock of the US President calling third world countries shit-holes.. Maybe we can call out racist pandering that really is racist.

Oh I'm sure there would have been plenty of protests before those last comments. If he wants to avoid that, fine. I get it. But why bring Obama (the embassy) into it as an excuse? It's so obviously not a genuine reason.

Obviously. Maybe now he'll think before talking like he's still on a construction site...

 

[Kate]

The decision reportedly was taken under the previous administration, before Obama was even elected. But since Mr Orange tweets dozens of untruths per day everything should be fact-checked.
It is sad that the word of the US has become worthless and cannot be trusted.
I have a question: how many American citizens were born in shithole or otherwise troubled countries ? Anybody knows ?

I doubt President Trump knew that.

As opposed to the previous 16 years of Bush & Obama? I wonder how far your hatred for America goes back?

President Trump wants a merit based immigration system. That's not a generous or kind policy but it's not racist.

 

[Kate]

That's the problem, he doesn't know (and doesn't care). He knows jack shit. He's a constant show of massive ignorance and prejudice. He should think twice, thrice before tweeting, or seek input from more competent persons. Is that too much to ask when you speak on behalf of your country to the rest of the world.

As opposed to the previous 16 years of Bush & Obama? I wonder how far your hatred for America goes back?

There are very few countries nowadays, where the US is popular, ever wonder why ? It's not just me. I don't hate America or any other country. But I hate abusive governments and tin-pot despots. In fact, America is unpopular even in America...

America is a nation of immigrants. Immigrants made America great. Wastage of heritage begins when you forget who you are and where you come from, when you turn your back on your values.

 

[JB Lions]

Yeah, he might be the dumbest President we've ever had. But he gave everybody warning when he was running, he wouldn't even read the daily security briefings. One time he said he doesn't have time to read. He's just not the intellectual type, the type to get into the details, learn about things.

President Trump has made more than 2,000 false or misleading claims over 355 days

Obviously. Maybe now he'll think before talking like he's still on a construction site...

He'll never think before he talks, has never shown any sign of that. People actually got on Obama because of that. When he would get asked a question, sometimes he actually thought about what he was going to say before he opened his mouth. Then I hear he's actually enjoying this uproar over what he said.

None of this is racist.

Look at the totality. He has a history. For sure panders to racists. Racist people love Trump.

Weird how the long ques at our border are all people trying to get in and become Americans.

We can agree on that.
