Nahhh...He's just a very lucky opportunist riding on the backs of some angry (and somewhat deluded) white folk

Here's the problem; you first. Trump supporters were falsely were maligned by the pretty much the entire left as violent racists because of the actions of an extreme few and I mean few as in you can probably count the number of real incidents with your fingers


According to a fairly comprehensive survey conducted on Trump voters by a US university across the US; 62% of Trump voters could be classified as carrying a racial prejudice based on the way they answered the survey. That indicates a serious national mental health problem given the US is a powerful first world country.

And what was the survey's criteria for determining racism?

prejudice...one the questions they answered yes to was "Is Barak Obama a muslim" talk about dumb!!

I have not figured out what to think of Trump yet.

If you ask partisans whether they believe something negative about their opponents there will always be 20-30% who will say they believe it no matter what.

And then you have apologists who will argue for Trump in a favorable light no matter what he does (or has done)

People say that hate speech is not free speech. But what exactly constitutes hate speech?

You'd have to convince me that Satan is real to begin with.

Exactly! Plus let's not forget the people that are hypocrites- Clinton and others do pay-to-play.. but when Trump and his friends do it, it's not a big deal. Betsy DeVos PAID her way into the education spot. She isn't experienced for the job at all! I still haven't gotten a good response from anyone on this site on how she is qualified. She is set to privatize schools so Republicans and her friends can make money. What about the middle class and lower class? They will be screwed out of education. Sorry I don't believe those school vouchers will do much for everyone! It's horrid.

Kellyanne Conjob promoted Ivanka Trump's clothing- that's a conflict of interest! She was "talked to" apparently. Right. :roll: Any other job where someone did that conflict of interest crap- they would be FIRED! There is many issues in USA now- White House staff (including THE PRESIDENT!) shouldn't be promoting or whining about how products from family members and/or friends are getting treated at stores, period. No excuses. Also- many of the things Ivanka sells aren't even made in America!

Trump and his friends have no values- except for making money at anyone's expense. That isn't making America great again. Republicans need to wake up and start doing something, instead of being chickens.

But to get back to the free speech- in Trump's America.. only himself and people he likes can speak freely. Everyone else has to shut up and deal with it. I think there is no discussions many places online anymore where I can't find a comment saying "deal with it you lost" (coming from a Trump supporter). Just because Trump won, doesn't justify all the crap he is doing. People have the right to resist and speak their mind- especially when almost everyone IS doing it in a legal matter. Let's not forget- republicans whined and fought Obama all of his time in office. Republicans didn't get over it, so democrats (as well as non-democrats that just don't like Trump) don't need to get over it either.

The list is actually too long...you probably need a book to cover everything this guy has done that's "dodgy"
